Eupatorium adenophorum is an annual woody plant of Gentianaceae, which has strong adaptability and is not tolerant to waterlogging. In order to cultivate purple vanilla, it is necessary to use the characteristics of loose, breathable, rich and excellent drainage pipes to shape soil or sandy soil for breeding. During the maintenance period, loosen the soil layer or clear the bonsai soil on time, which is beneficial to the growth of rhizomes.
Growth habit of purple vanilla
Purple vanilla likes heat and is suitable for growing in warm, naturally ventilated and excellent natural environment. The growth period of purple vanilla must be illuminated, and sufficient illumination is beneficial to the growth of purple vanilla. In spring and autumn, plants can be put in outdoor places with sufficient light to carry out photosynthesis and accumulate nutrients, but they must be shaded in summer.
Breeding mode
land
Generally, cultivated soil on the market and sandy soil containing soil organic matter are suitable. If you choose a drain pipe, the air permeability is not very good, so you should pay attention to watering.
sunlight
Sunshine is good for flowering, but the hot summer sun will burn the leaves, so it is recommended to put it in a place with sufficient scattered light. Fruit grows well under the shade of 70 ~ 80% light.
temperature
The growth temperature of Arnebia euchroma is 16 ~ 18 degrees at night and 24 ~ 27 degrees during the day. The soil of bonsai should always keep the environmental humidity, and too much drought will hinder the growth.
moisture
Often maintain a few to complete humidity, but there is no need for water supply and drainage. Once a day in autumn and winter and once a day in summer. When the flowers bloom, you must water them more than usual. You can often sprinkle water on the leaves to improve the humidity of the environment.
Comac
During the growth period, after the dilution of Huabao No.2 1000 times, it can be fertilized once every 20 days to help the main stem grow well. Huabao No.3 was diluted to 1 0,000 times at the flowering stage, and then used phosphorus and potassium fertilizer every seven to ten days to cut off the fallen flowers, so as to prevent nutrient consumption and make the flowers bloom continuously.
water
When planting herbs, the soil layer must be kept moist, and daily watering should be sufficient. Generally, it can be once a day in autumn and winter and once a day in summer. Purple vanilla needs a lot of water when it is in full bloom.
It is suggested that people who love flowers can often sprinkle water on the leaves, which can not only replenish water, but also improve the relative humidity of the air.
Cutting and trimming matters
After the purple vanilla blooms, people who love flowers can cut off the fallen flowers, which can reasonably prevent the consumption of nutrients and promote the flowering of purple vanilla.
Matters needing attention
Arnebia euchroma is not tolerant to waterlogging, so it must be watered effectively during the growing period. In the spring and autumn, the purple vanilla should be properly watered to keep the soil layer moist. In the dry climate and natural environment, it is necessary to increase the amount of watering, and also to sprinkle water on purple vanilla to cool and humidify. In winter, Arnebia euchroma must be soaked in a pot after stopping growing.
In the growing period, purple vanilla must be rich in chemical fertilizer, which is beneficial to the growth of flowers and leaves. At the initial stage of growth, the chemical fertilizer is mainly base fertilizer, which is beneficial to the growth of branches. Before flowering, we must apply thin fertilizer frequently, and the fertilizer is mostly phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, which can promote the petals to open. In winter, after the growth of purple vanilla stops, fertilization must be stopped.
