Habit of Rieger Begonia
1. Rieger Begonia has a temper with geranium, upside down golden bell, cyclamen and other flower watching flowers, and likes a low-temperature and cool environment. Raising Rieger Begonia in Mulei is not a problem in spring, summer and autumn. Only in the heating period in winter, the indoor temperature is higher than 25 degrees, and the windows cannot be opened for good ventilation. These flowers are not easy to raise or can not be raised well. Many flower friends say that this is why their own lig Begonia died after a stubble. In the countryside or bungalow, lig Begonia has a life span of three or four years or more p>
2. The flowering period of Rieger Begonia is not limited by season. The seedlings are planted in March and April, and bloom in October. The flowering period is half a year. After flowering, cut off the residual branches, dormant for about two or three months, and begin to bud and grow again and again in June and July. This cycle can start from any starting point. It usually takes six or seven months from seedling insertion to flowering. When a seedling is inserted in January, it will bloom in July and August p>
3. Many flower lovers will buy finished Rieger begonias in early summer. The finished products are basically propagated through tissue culture and can be produced in batch. Most of the flowers will be finished after they bloom in one season. Even if they are still alive, they will survive and will not flower again. In the peak season of Mulei, a pot of Rieger Begonia is about 30 yuan. The price of buying a pot of one-time ornamental flowers is still a little high. Therefore, many flower friends who are infatuated with Rieger Begonia try their best to propagate by cutting and strive for subsequent flowers p>
Cutting propagation
1. March and April is the best cutting season for Rieger Begonia, and the indoor temperature is about 20 degrees. Choose a healthy side branch that has not bloomed, or a new bud after flowering. The branch is five to ten centimeters long. It is best to carefully break off the selected lateral branches from the connection with the main rod. There are generally round protrusions that are easy to take root here. The branches cut by knife or scissors will destroy this tissue and affect the survival rate of cutting p>
2. The broken branches are directly inserted into the soil. The cutting flowerpot should not be too large. It is better to choose a basin with a diameter of less than 15 cm. If it is dry soil, it can be watered with water. If it is wet soil, it can only be watered around the flower branches. Cut a coke bottle into two and fasten the cuttings. The main function is to moisturize p>
3. After that, observe the basin soil for three or five days and keep it slightly wet. Do not water thoroughly every time, the permeable basin soil is not easy to dry, and the new seedlings are easy to rot. When cutting Rieger Begonia, the temperature is higher than 25 degrees, which is generally not suitable for survival. The high temperature in summer is not suitable for cutting. The temperature can be controlled at 18 to 22 degrees at other times. But the survival rate is slightly lower than that in March and April p>
4. In addition to branches, liger Begonia can also be inserted with leaves. Choose a healthy and strong leaf and cut it from the petiole. Leaves cannot be broken. Inserted in the water, fibrous roots will appear after a month. Continue to wait. Many leaf buds will appear near the incision. When they grow to the size of the nail cap, they can be put into the basin. Be careful to cover the fibrous roots with soil when putting them into the basin. The fibrous roots should be buried, but the buds should not be buried. Do not water too much. Keep the bottle moist p>
5. Leaf transplanting is suitable for rare varieties without branches, that is, this method is used only when there is no choice. Leaf transplanting is time-consuming and laborious, testing patience and technology. Five or six out of ten leaves inserted into the water will rot, and those with roots will die prematurely due to improper temperature and humidity after being put into the pot. People who like to toss can have a try p>
The light of lig Begonia
The leaves of Rieger Begonia are green and bright, and the strong light burns the leaves, affecting the ornamental. Astigmatism is the best. There is no strong light coming in from the South windowsill of the building in late spring, summer and early autumn. Lig Begonia can be placed here p>
In winter, there is high heat and strong light. Do not put the South windowsill. There is no room for it to be sunburned every minute. For those varieties that do not need sunlight coloring, it is best to put the North windowsill in four seasons. They can not be moved from cutting to flowering. The leaves are green and tender, the branches and stems are forked, the flowering period is long, and it is easy to burst p>
Temperature of Rieger Begonia
Xinjiang Mulei is located in mountainous and hilly areas, with more low temperature and cool time. The general environment is suitable for the growth of Begonia flowers. Generally, the room temperature is 18 to 22 degrees, which belongs to the favorite state of Rieger Begonia. The windowsill family should pay attention to opening windows for ventilation p>
When the temperature is lower than 18 ℃, the growth of Begonia is slow at most. When it is higher than 25 ℃, there are more problems with Begonia. The edge of the blade is as soft as being scalded by boiling water, gradually affecting the whole blade p>
Brown mildew spots appear on the back of the leaves and gradually expand, and the branches and stems turn brown one by one, as well as the roots. All these things are basically hopeless. Reluctantly give up love and pull it out. If you want to cut, choose those branches that are not infected. If you are lucky, you can live p>
Rieger Begonia soil
Xinjiang Mulei flower friends generally use mountain soil directly to raise flowers, and so does Lige Begonia. The special thing is that the mountain soil is only used once, that is, new soil is used for cutting. After the flowering period, all the new branches are used for propagation, and the rest are thrown away p>
Mountain soil can not be reused. First, it has no nutrition and second, it is prone to disease. The crabapple can grow luxuriantly in the mountain soil without fertilization.
At this time, it was snowy outside the window, wrapped in silver and plain, but the interior was as warm as spring, with green waves rippling. Clivia, Hupi orchid,, asparagus,, Dishui Guanyin, green rose, goose palm wood, money tree and evergreen are full of vitality. Tiger thorn plum, triangle plum, geranium tuanjin family, Zhuding red and spider orchid are waiting to open. The most important thing is this lig Begonia, which is in its prime. The red and yellow powder are blooming in a swarm of bees, which is beautiful beyond description. Because of liger Begonia, I have the proud capital to raise flowers, and because of liger Begonia, the winter of wooden base is so colorful p>
