Wintersweet bonsai breeding method
Let's share with you the knowledge of cultivating wintersweet bonsai flowers and the tips of maintaining bonsai wintersweet flowers. Let's learn about it together.
Wintersweet, this plant can only bloom beautiful flowers during the twelfth lunar month in the cold winter, so it is often made into beautiful bonsai and stored indoors until the cold winter for people to appreciate. So how should we cultivate wintersweet bonsai? Let's talk about the relevant knowledge points. I hope that interested friends can master the following 4 points in the actual potted plant, so as to ensure that the plants bloom full of trees in the cold winter. The "golden flowers" make the bonsai beautiful and fragrant.
First, the soil that wintersweet likes from self-blended soil generally has three characteristics, that is, looseness, breathability, and fertility that plants need. At the same time, we also need to pay attention to the pH of the soil. Wintersweet prefers weak acid soil quality.
Personally, it is recommended to use legular soil, park soil, and fine river sand, mixed in a ratio of 3:3:2. Moreover, after mixing the soil, it is not possible to plant it in a pot immediately. Sterilization and disinfection work are also needed. Simple and crude low-temperature heating or exposure can often be adopted to kill bacteria or pests in the soil., help wintersweet grow healthier and normally, and keep out some possible pest and disease problems.
Second, reasonable control of water and fertilizer is relatively drought-tolerant, so there is no need to water it every day during the potted period, or water it immediately when you see the soil surface dry. Because there is still water deep in the soil, its roots will slowly penetrate deep into the soil to absorb it.
Therefore, if you want to water, make sure the soil is really dry. You can insert long wooden chopsticks into the potted soil and leave them for five minutes. If they are pulled out and become dry, you can water them immediately.

At the same time, we also need to determine when and what kind of fertilizer to add based on the growth status of wintersweet. Usually in the cold November, it is necessary to replace the commonly used nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium ternary compound fertilizer with potassium dihydrogen phosphate powder. Mix it into flower watering water according to the instructions, and after mixing well, it can be used as watering soil.
Usually, it can be used 1-2 times a month to meet the needs of wintersweet for trace elements such as phosphorus and potassium during flowering. In addition, if you want to improve the flowering quality and quantity of wintersweet, it is best to use thin water-soluble fertilizer from animal manure once or twice.
Third, multi-ventilated wintersweet needs to pay attention to regular ventilation and ventilation during daily management, because the external low temperature environment is not very harmful to it, so during the day, as long as there is sun, you can place wintersweet potted plants on the balcony or sill, bask in the sun or blow out. In addition, we also need to pay attention to ensuring that there is enough distance between the branches of wintersweet for ventilation and light transmission.
