1. Breeding environment
(1) Soil: loose, fertile and well drained soil is mainly required p>
(2) Watering: keep the soil moist during the growth period. In summer, it can be watered twice a day. About once a day in spring and autumn. In winter, the principle of dry and thoroughly poured shall be followed. No matter which season, there must be no ponding p>
(3) Light: sufficient sunlight must be provided, otherwise the plant will become thin and less flowering p>
(4) Temperature: it's better to be warm, about 15 to 20 degrees. Low temperature will delay its flowering p>
(5) Fertilization: base fertilizer can be mixed into the soil during planting. Use potassium dihydrogen phosphate once before flowers and cake fertilizer once for flowers. In normal growth period, compound fertilizer and organic fertilizer can be used p>
2. Pruning
Just after the basin is put on, it needs to be trimmed once. Especially when making bonsai, we must lay a foundation at this time. At ordinary times, the state of the plant can be observed to judge whether it should be pruned. Cross, erect, dry and too dense branches shall be cut off and the side branches shall be shortened. In this way, it can not only make its shape more beautiful, but also make it flourish p>
3. Breeding method
(1) Sowing and reproduction: after the fruit matures in September, pick it, and then peel off and wash it. Prepare suitable substrates and wait until the end of September to sow p>
(2) Grafting propagation: it is mainly divided into branch marriage and bud marriage. The roots used for grafting can be peach trees, plum trees, etc., but it is better for plum trees to graft other varieties, so as to have a high reproductive success rate and grow well
