Cultivation methods and techniques of Paeonia lactiflora (planting skills and maintenance of Paeonia lactiflora)

Daily maintenance of Paeonia lactiflora

Regarding peony, Liu Yuxi, a famous poet in the Tang Dynasty, once wrote such a poem-"The peony demon in front of the court is unqualified, and the pool is full of lotus and little affection. Only peony is the real national color, and the flowers bloom in Beijing. " In a few words, through the devaluation of peony lotus, the praise of peony flower is completed. Probably because of this reason, people have often compared peony and peony flowers in one place since ancient times. Over time, people misunderstood them and confused them.

In fact, peony and peony are both traditional famous flowers in China. They have their own strengths and first-class values, and they are worthy of being famous ornamental plants. Today, Xiaohua will focus on two or three things about peony maintenance, hoping to help everyone. If you are interested in the screen, you can like to pay attention to the collection of Sanlian!

First, growth habits.

Peony naturally likes warm, humid and sunny environment. Its ideal growth temperature is 15~27℃, and the highest temperature that plants can tolerate is 40℃. No matter how high the temperature is, they will face the risk of serious burns and sunburn. As a special perennial plant, it is in the peak season and flowering period of peony. If these plants are well cared for, they will surely thrive.

Followed by the prevention and control of pests and diseases.

Peony, like Chinese rose, is easy to get sick. Taking Paeonia lactiflora leaf spot as an example, because the activity of its pathogenic bacteria usually increases with the increase of temperature, the high incidence period of the disease is summer, that is, June and July. At this time, plants will have adverse chain reactions such as poor growth, poor development and frequent defoliation. We need to take measures as soon as possible. For example, we should pay close attention to the growth of Paeonia lactiflora at ordinary times. Once diseased branches and weak leaves are found, we should quickly catch them all and cut them off. Then, burn these branches and leaves together, and then, at a suitable time, spray a proper amount of Bordeaux solution or bacitracin solution on the plants. The spraying times need not be too high, and it can be sprayed every 7~ 10 days.

Third, matters needing attention.

1, pruning is essential. Reasonable combing and pruning can not only reduce unnecessary consumption of nutrients, but also improve ventilation between branches and leaves, thus reducing the risk of breeding pests and diseases.

2. Paeonia lactiflora is a typical sunny plant, and the daily illumination time should not be less than 6 hours. Even if the weather is too hot in summer, everyone should ensure enough astigmatism and never leave the potted plants in the dark for a long time.

Finally, since peony has been mentioned today, in order to break the deep-rooted misunderstanding of some friends, Xiaohua will briefly talk about their differences here. First, the nature is different. Peony is a standard woody plant, and Paeonia lactiflora is a perennial tuber plant. Secondly, the flowering time is different. Peony blooms a little earlier, and it can begin to bloom as early as mid-April. Peony will generally be delayed for about ten days and a half months. Third, there are great differences between them in leaf shape and flower shape. Among them, Paeonia lactiflora leaves are long and narrow, dark in color, round and full in color. As for flowers, at first glance, they really look alike, but they are not completely different. Generally speaking, peony has a large stem and flowers grow on the branches alone. In contrast, peony flowers like to live in groups and bloom in different ways.

Let's call it a day. If you have any other common sense about flower cultivation, please leave a message and tell Xiaohua. Well, before it's too late, see you next time.
