Golden branches and jade leaves old pile

Golden branches and jade leaves belong to Purslane family. Its scientific name is purslane tree. They are close relatives and family with the wild vegetable purslane we see in the field

Although the branches and leaves of golden branches and jade leaves are tender and can pinch out water, they are very drought resistant. Long term water control can improve their water storage capacity and quickly become old piles. Water once every 20-30 days in winter and dry more; Water once every 15 days in spring and autumn, and raise in astigmatism; Water once every 30 days in summer, keep in the shade, and spray more water to humidify and cool down

It's easy to control water for golden branches and jade leaves. It's still up to you to prune it. It's resistant to pruning. It can be pruned before and after the spring and autumn growth season. The longer it is, the more stable it is

Clover old pile

Old piles are expensive and difficult to raise. This is why many flower friends dare not try. You can practice your hands with Oxalis (clover) first. It is not only good in shape, but also beautiful in blossom

Among the common rose Sorrels, the most vigorous ones are the pink ones. Although it looks weak on the outside, the roots in the soil are very rough. If you dig it out and plant it directly in the flowerpot, exposing half of the roots is an old pile

However, the quick-growing "bonsai" with bare roots needs some protection. Don't direct sunlight for the first week, and occasionally spray water and fog to humidify (less watering). After taking the basin, you can put it in a bright place for maintenance

If you don't use this quick method and plant Oxalis to cultivate old piles, it may take at least 2-3 years to complete. Although it takes a long time, you can fix the shape with aluminum wire or copper wire and shape it as you like

Sunflower old pile

The hot sunflower in summer, commonly known as "can't die", is also a good material for practicing making old pile bonsai. An uncle has done a good experiment and made the sunflower into a flower tower, which is really unique

Sunflower has strong vitality, but its growth space is limited. It takes 15 years to develop the old pile in the above figure. If you want to quickly develop the old pile of bonsai, you can achieve it by grafting and find a bigger purslane grass

Cut off the branches of Portulaca oleracea. Each branch is only 5cm long. Cut it with a knife at the incision, with a depth of 2-3cm

Cut several branches of sunflower with different colors, with a length of 5-8 cm. Cut them obliquely at the bottom, cut them thinner, and insert them on the branches of Portulaca oleracea (the split position in the previous step). Finally, tie it with a rope

Sunflower and Portulaca oleracea are also close relatives. They have strong vitality and safe grafting. Because the branches are relatively soft, iron wire can be used as a support, which not only practices the bonsai skills, but also the grafting technology

Long life old pile

Longevity flower is easy to form old piles. Generally, those who have been older than 2 years have become old piles. In addition to a little "teeth and claws", it is still a little artistic···

If you want to quickly develop longevity into an old pile, you need to strictly control the water to prevent overgrowth. Water once about 15 days before the flowering period, once 10-15 days after the bud. Continue to control the water after the flowering period, and you can become an old pile in half a year

After longevity becomes, you may not love flowering so much. You can pick more branches and leaves for cutting when the temperature is appropriate in spring and autumn, so that you can have a big flower ball in winter. As for the old pile, we should try to change the soil once a year and add some phosphorus fertilizer before the flowering period. It is still no problem to blossom

Fleshy

Fleshy old piles are more common. As long as they can't die, they can basically grow into old piles. But it's the problem of beauty and ugliness. Old piles have different attitudes. Some are worthless and some can sell at sky high prices. There is a big gap

In addition to "watching luck", the fleshy old pile also needs to know manual intervention. If your fleshy old pile grows in vain, you can remove the sparse leaves on the branches, and then strengthen the water control to Lignify the main rod, which can accelerate the aging pile

If your flesh continues to grow in vain and becomes slender, you can directly "cut off your head". As long as the pole is alive, it will rise again from the incision. Maybe it is still multi headed. In this way, keep the appropriate height and the shape will be better naturally

Roll leaves and "beheading", no one knows where it will sprout new flower buds. Sometimes too much sprouts and uneven nutrition will eliminate buds. If you have a favorite bud, you can remove the unwanted bud and leave it to grow well
