Do you want to top the campbell flower? Camptotheca acuminata is a climbing vine. When reaching a certain height, the branches and vines can be fixed with nails, and the soil should be kept moist during the growth of flower buds. So, should Camptotheca acuminata top it?

Does Camptotheca acuminata need topping? 1 1, topping is required.

Camptotheca acuminata needs topping, which is a pruning method to eliminate the top advantage of plants. The top advantage will make the plants grow white and the height will not be controlled. After the plant is dwarfed, more and more lateral buds will germinate and more flowers will bloom, which will also make the plant more ornamental and energetic.

2, topping method

Topping is mainly to remove the top of plants. The principle of topping is to remove the growing points on the stem. Higher places receive more sunlight and secrete more auxin. Topping can remove the meristem of terminal bud and inhibit the secretion of auxin, thus achieving the purpose of controlling height, inhibiting vegetative growth and promoting reproductive growth. Common in fruit trees and vines.

3, pruning time

The best pruning time of Camptotheca acuminata is spring, when the climatic conditions are more suitable, everything germinates, and Camptotheca acuminata is also in the bud stage and enters the growth period. At this time, pruning will not affect the normal growth of plants, which is conducive to the growth of plants towards people's wishes and better shape.

4, other pruning

Camptotheca acuminata is a climbing vine. Without pruning and shaping, the climbing direction will be disordered and the branches will block each other, which will not only affect the beauty, but also affect the growth of Camptotheca acuminata itself. Pruning can be in one direction, so that you can climb in the same direction and cut off the branches and weak branches that cover each other.

Do you want to top the camphor? How to water it?

1, watering frequency

You don't need to water Camptotheca acuminata often. You can water more at seedling stage, which can promote the growth of Camptotheca acuminata. But later, you should reduce the number of watering to prevent the roots of Camptotheca acuminata from rotting. In summer, the temperature is higher, the transpiration rate is faster, and the water evaporates faster. You can water more at night or spray water on the leaves.

2. Fertilization method

Fertilization should be combined with watering. Camptotheca acuminata grows fast and has a long flowering period, so it needs to maintain sufficient nutrients during the flowering period. Nitrogen fertilizer can be applied during the growth period, and decomposed cake fertilizer can be applied once every two weeks. After flowering in May, nitrogen fertilizer will decrease and the content of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer will increase to prevent overgrowth and promote flower bud development.

3. Soil selection

Camptotheca acuminata doesn't require much soil. As long as it is a well-drained, loose and fertile neutral soil, you can choose humus soil, vegetable garden topsoil and sand as the culture soil, and add some organic fertilizer as the base fertilizer. You can't choose acidic soil, but you can tolerate alkaline saline-alkali soil.

4. Plenty of light

The growth of Camptotheca acuminata needs sufficient light, and too long light time will lead to rapid evaporation of soil moisture, so it is necessary to replenish water supply under long light time. Light promotes flowering. In the shade, Camptotheca acuminata grows slowly, which may affect the flowering quality and even prevent flowering.
