How to model Wei Zi bonsai and how to prune it reasonably to create a beautiful Wei Zi bonsai.

Osmanthus fragrans, also known as Psidium, Ficus pruritus, is usually planted in gardens or courtyards, and of course it can also be made into bonsai. The naturally growing osmanthus branches are messy and seem to have no artistic conception. And how to shape Wei Zi flower bonsai? Lagerstroemia indica is a tree with a hard trunk. It's not enough to just pose on the bonsai, it needs careful pruning.

Modeling method of osmanthus bonsai

At first, we should consider modeling. The general modeling method is dry twisting, that is, twisting the trunks of several small Lagerstroemia indica trees together, twisting the branches growing at the roots along the trunks together and fixing them with ropes. After about two years of growth, the trunks will grow together, so the shape will look better.

But Wei Zi is a tree, not a flower, so there is absolutely no need for you to put some beautiful decorations on the bonsai to create a beautiful shape. Beautiful trees can't be pruned on time. Let's take a look at the pruning method of osmanthus bonsai.

Pruning method of Osmunda japonica bonsai 1, cut short and dry.

Lagerstroemia indica is not suitable for bonsai when it grows up, because its branches will become very thick, which the general flowerpot can't bear. So cultivate and prune your crape myrtle tree from an early age. Cutting the trunk is to cut off the trunk of this crape myrtle tree to control its growth height.

Firstly, the height of the first section of Lagerstroemia indica trunk should be established, and then it should be cut off. When cultivated to a certain thickness, the top should be cut off for the second time to form the second section. The height of each segment depends on the shape, and it needs about 65 ~ 20 cm. Generally, crape myrtle trees should be cut short once a year.

While cutting short and cutting off the trunk, we should also pay attention to cultivating lateral branches. The trunk and lateral branches will be cultivated at the same time, and will increase and thicken with time. After 2 ~ 3 years, you can see your own satisfactory osmanthus bonsai.

2, timely pruning

Thinning is not the same as cutting short, but pruning branches that are too dense or unsightly, rather than cutting short the trunk. The timing of pruning is generally winter pruning, usual pruning and post-flowering pruning.

Pruning in winter: Lagerstroemia indica is dormant in winter, so pruning can focus on it. After cutting short branches, concentrate nutrition on 2 ~ 3 buds when cutting short branches, so that the newly grown branches will be stronger. Of course, when pruning, it is also necessary to trim according to the shape, which depends on the artistic talent of the flower friends.

Pruning at ordinary times: In the growing season of Osmunda japonica, many messy branches will grow, which will not only affect the appearance, but also waste nutrients. Osmanthus fragrans is the most beautiful flower at the top, so when pruning, the inflorescence growing below should be pruned as early as possible, because flowering will require a lot of nutrients.

Pruning after flowering: The flowering period of Osmanthus fragrans generally ends at 5438+ 10 in mid-June. After the failure of flowering, the branches should be subtracted in time. Some flowers with ugly angles can be completely pruned, some that meet expectations should be carefully pruned, and some random branches that grow on flowers should be pruned.

Pot changing and soil turning of Osmunda japonica in bonsai

I know how to shape Lagerstroemia speciosa bonsai, but I can't ignore the requirements of Lagerstroemia speciosa for soil and flowerpots. With the growth of Lagerstroemia speciosa, the trunk and roots will be very thick, and ordinary small flowerpots can't be put down. It is best to change the flowerpot every two years, and the best time to change the flowerpot is winter and spring.

It is also particularly important to turn over the soil and change it. It is necessary to replace the overnight soil in time, cut off excess roots and dead roots when turning over the soil, and keep the soil fertile. Water and fertilization should not be forgotten.

Conclusion: After reading the above introduction, I believe everyone should know how to create a beautiful Wei Zi bonsai. I hope everyone can create their own bonsai.
