Dictyophora has a long flowering period and high ornamental value, but many people say it is difficult to raise. Is it easy to raise skills?

Introduction: Tielan is often used to decorate the green plants in the design area in some magazines and periodicals. But many flower friends confirm that it is difficult to maintain. This article may share some maintenance methods and some mistakes that are easy to make, making the maintenance of Tielan easier. Dictyophora, also known as purple pineapple, is an ornamental plant of pineapple family. Dictyophora indusiata leaves are narrow and slender, with textured surface, close to wheat leaves and high strength. Under flowering conditions, an oval spike of about 20 cm (like prose) is usually pulled out from the plant core. The ear of healthy life is light purple, the true florets open in pairs from bottom to top, and the petals are delicate and blue-purple.

Dictyophora dictyophora is one of the few "three views" green plants in biology. You can see foliage plants at ordinary times, ears when you come out, and flowers when you are in full bloom. Many flower lovers will regard the flower spike as the flower of the iron orchid, which shows that the flower spike alone can be beautiful. As a kind of "three views" green plants, many flower lovers still have wrong ideas about basic conservation common sense.

Myth 1. Dictyophora is very drought-resistant: many flower friends think Dictyophora is very drought-resistant when they see its hard leaves and petite plants, but it is not true.

Myth 2: Dictyophora indusiata is cold-resistant: Dictyophora indusiata is actually cold-resistant than ordinary domestic flowers, and the curing temperature should not be lower than 10, preferably about 15 degrees.

Myth 3: Tielan loves a dry and impetuous living environment: most of the nutrients of Tielan are absorbed by leaves, and the roots only have a fixed role, so it has a very high humidity regulation, and it takes a long time to sprinkle water or tap water to scrub the leaves.

Master the above misunderstandings, and then master some maintenance methods, you can plant the iron orchid.

First, the purchase method

People who love flowers have bought flowers when they buy them. When choosing, they should choose these beautiful colors, and they can carefully observe the bottom of the flowers. Try to choose the iron orchid with strong color at the bottom. This iron orchid blooms in large numbers.

We should not only look at the ear of flowers, but also try to choose plants with tight, slender and tough leaves. Leaves droop as simply as possible.

Second, the nutrient soil method

Because of its unique root function, Dictyophora indusiata likes transparent and loose acidic soil very much. It is best to choose a mixture of peat soil, sand and vitrified beads, or a mixture of humus soil and culture soil. In short, it must be transparent and relaxed.

In order to maintain the acidity of the soil layer, some acidic fertilizers such as potassium dihydrochloride can be added to the usual maintenance or some vinegar can be added to the water.

Third, fertilization and watering methods.

Method 1: Water the bonsai soil normally. The principle of watering is to keep the bonsai soil moist and unable to store water. My watering frequency: usually once every three days in summer, more than 0/0 days in winter, and more than 5 days in autumn and spring. People who love flowers will be more sensitive to their own conservation standards. If potted flower pots are small and naturally ventilated, they must be more.

Method 2: Spray or scrub the leaves, which is also an important way for Dictyophora dictyophora to absorb nutrition. So, it's very important. I usually spray it once a day or two to scrub the leaves. Summer is basically twice a day. You can't let the core of the iron orchid store water when spraying. If the water can be sucked out or poured out with paper towels, otherwise the core will be chaotic and the roots will rot. For safety, I only drain water nearby. The key is to scrub the leaves.

Method 3: When Cymbidium hybridum pulls out the flower head, it needs to supplement a moderate amount of water, and the above methods have a long interval. For example, watering two days ago, now four days. You can't go to the bars.

Iron orchid is very resistant to barren, so fertilization once a quarter is usually enough. In addition to nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, add some magnesium-containing fertilizer in moderation, and remember not to concentrate too much.

Fourthly, the control method of ambient temperature.

The suitable environmental temperature for the growth of Dictyophora dictyophora is 10-30 degrees.

When it is higher than 30 degrees in summer, shade the plants, cooperate with watering and lower the temperature. Once you find yellow spots on the leaves in summer and gradually turn yellow and dry at night, you should consider that it is probably sunburn.

Winter is a very important maintenance period. Iron orchids are very afraid of cold, and many flower lovers' iron orchids are also frozen to death. In winter, for the sake of safety, the growth temperature of Dictyophora dictyophora can be controlled above 15℃. Bagging, bagging and placing the fruit beside the pyrogen can solve the temperature problem, otherwise it will be life-threatening. In winter, once all the plants are found to be dark and soft at night, it must be frostbite and must be moved to a dry place.

Fifth, the method of sunshine and natural ventilation.

Dictyophora is a shade-tolerant variety, which is usually placed in a place with direct astigmatism and is afraid of exposure in summer. Adequate sunshine can ensure the compact plant shape of Dictyophora dictyophora, which is beneficial to flower bud differentiation.

It should be noted that when flowers are in full bloom, it is necessary to reduce the time of sunlight exposure, which can reduce the cost and prolong the flowering period.

Tielan loves natural ventilation and comfortable environment, and often puts Tielan in the dialog box to blow.

Sixth, breeding methods.

Dictyophora can be sown and propagated, but the actual operation is very difficult for us. Everyone generally uses fiber insertion to reproduce in life maintenance. The roots of Dictyophora dictyophora can easily grow lateral buds. When the lateral buds grow to about 5 cm, they should be inserted into the prepared bonsai soil by inserting fibers. If the surface of bonsai soil can't be dry, you can keep the air humidity (remember that bonsai soil should not be wet). For about a month, I gently turned the plant. If I felt something motionless, it was a new root and could be maintained normally.

Seventh: other methods.

Pick the flowers immediately after the flowers bloom;

Pest control of dictyophora indusiata can not be ignored. In addition to maintaining natural ventilation, it is often necessary to spray some moth-proofing drugs. Dictyophora mainly includes brown spot disease, rice planthopper and bud worm, and it needs Jiabu, Baijunling and Kyushu flower protector.

The above is the maintenance method of tielan. In addition to appreciating the high price, it also has a beautiful moral: the moral of Tielan is extremely tough, and it has a strong ability to purify indoor air, which is suitable for home maintenance.
