2、 Plant introduction
1. Morphological features: morning glory is an annual twining herb. The leaves are broadly ovate, usually 3-lobed, occasionally 5-lobed, and the surface is pilose. The flowers are axillary, the Corolla is funnel-shaped, and the colors are very rich, but the common ones are only blue purple and purple red. Its stamens and style are relatively short, not beyond the corolla, but hidden in it.
2. Growth habit: morning glory has strong adaptability. It likes the environment with sufficient light, but it can also grow under semi shade conditions. It is relatively resistant to high temperature, can grow normally in summer, and will bloom. However, it has poor cold resistance and is afraid of frost. However, as an annual plant, it does not need to consider the problem of wintering.
3. Maintenance method: raising morning glory generally needs loose soil, which is conducive to seed germination and root growth. Water frequently during daily maintenance, especially in summer. Ensure that the basin soil is wet, but there shall be no ponding in the basin. Fertilization should be started after a week in the pot. At the beginning, thin liquid fertilizer should be applied every 2-3 weeks. Potassium dihydrogen phosphate can be sprayed during bud pregnancy to promote flowering.
4. How to propagate: morning glory is usually propagated by sowing. When the fruit is ripe and cracked, take out the seeds and put them in a cool place until they are sown in spring. Before sowing, the shell needs to be cut or soaked for 24 hours. After soaking, you can put it in the environment of 20-25 ℃ to promote germination. After budding, you can bury it in the soil, usually 3-5 seeds. After sowing, the seedlings can appear again in 7-7 days.
