Golden combination for balcony planting
Miniature roses combined with clematis form a three-dimensional flower wall, colored leaves and air pineapples create a tropical rainforest landscape, and hanging dwarf ipomoeas adorn the railings. Special attention should be paid to setting up rainproof sheds from April to June during the plum rain season to prevent waterlogging and root rot.
The survival wisdom of thousand-year-old banyan trees
Banyan trees, the city trees, are随处可见 in Ganzhou streets, and the unique scene of a single tree forming a forest with air roots has become a natural sunshade corridor. It is necessary to pay attention to pruning the air roots every three years to maintain the ventilation and light transmission of the tree crown.

When you plant a golden edge daphne, you not only harvest a room full of fragrance, but also continue the beautiful tradition of the Hakkas 'planting Auspicious trees in the courtyard and planting Rich and noble flowers at the door'. This spring, you might as well start with cultivating the city flower and feel the joy of growing with this city.
