Huahua knows that many friends like to choose more valuable flower plants when growing flowers. Today Huahua will recommend a noble plant to everyone. If we want to maintain it, we don’t need to spend money to buy it. We only need to break a branch and plant it in the soil. , you can grow a whole pot, and the longer you maintain it, the more valuable it will be. If you like it, you can go home and try planting it.

This noble and valuable plant that Huahua talks about is Podocarpus pine. Flower lovers who like green plants should be familiar with it. Podocarpus is generally sold as a bonsai in the market. The older the tree, the more expensive it is. In fact, we don’t need to spend a lot of money to maintain Podocarpus. Go buy it, plant a branch in the soil, start caring for it from a young age, and you will have a greater sense of accomplishment when it grows into a potted plant.

Cutting method:

Podocarpus Before cutting, it is best to select lignified branches that are more than one year old, and then prepare some loose and nutritious soil as the cutting substrate. Before cutting, we also need to trim the bottom of the prepared lignified branches according to the diagonal shape. If the shape is well pruned, the cuttings will take root faster. After the preparation work is completed, we can plant the branches directly into the soil, water them thoroughly and wait for germination.

Daily maintenance methods:

During the daily growth process, Podocarpus cannot accept too strong light, nor can it grow in the dark side for a long time, otherwise it will cause the growth rate to slow down and the branches and leaves to turn yellow. Generally, during its growth process, we need to provide scattered light. This will help the branches and leaves sprout and grow and enhance their color.

It seems that Podocarpus is very drought tolerant, but... On the contrary, when we care for Podocarpus, we need to ensure that the potting soil is slightly moist, which will help its roots absorb nutrients and thereby increase the growth rate. However, you should pay attention to watering the podocarpus in an appropriate amount to avoid water accumulation and root rot, which will affect the growth rate.

After the Podocarpus has grown for a period of time, we need to prune it and cut off some leggy branches and rotten branches to ensure a balanced distribution of nutrients, so that the Podocarpus will grow faster. In addition, after pruning, The ornamental value of Podocarpus will also be greatly improved.

The way to maintain Podocarpus is simple and the growth rate of Podocarpus is fast It is also very vigorous. I believe it will not take long to grow into a big old pile. Friends who like Podocarpus can also use this cutting method to propagate!
