1. Observe the plant morphology by simulating Abies australis with iron wire 1.
First of all, we should observe the Australian fir, starting from each branch and rhizome, and observe what shape it is suitable for, because every Australian fir has a different shape. Modeling must conform to the growth of plants, forcing modeling may break branches.
2. Reasonable zoning
How to shape Australian fir with iron wire? Carefully wrap or hang the branches suitable for winding with iron wire, because the iron wire is thin and easy to hurt the branches, so be careful when winding and forming. Pinza's methods include hanging and tying, and it is appropriate to tie plants into ornamental forms.
3, appropriate pruning
After winding, it needs to be trimmed properly, and it should be thinned or shortened according to its own shape. You can cut off some branches that are too long and dense, which not only makes the Australian fir more beautiful, but also increases the ventilation and light transmission of the plants.
4, finalize the design maintenance
Normal maintenance after setting is enough. Dead branches, diseased branches and branches that are too long and too dense should be trimmed in time so as not to affect the shape. After a period of time, the branches and leaves will grow again and flourish. At this time, you only need to trim it properly according to the shape.
Second, the skill of bending Taxodium ascendens branches 1, natural bending
Naturally growing trees tend to have branches and leaves facing south more vigorously than those facing north. When Chinese fir is exposed to sunlight, if it does not turn over the pot for a long time, the branches and leaves on one side will be more lush, and the trunk will gradually tilt like the lush side, and it will naturally bend after a long time.
Step 2 trim and bend
If you want to control the bending direction of Australian fir, you can gradually bend the branches of Australian fir by pruning the branches and leaves. When pruning branches and leaves, the trunk will naturally bend to the place with many branches and leaves, and the more unbalanced it is, the faster it will bend.
3, artificial hanging bending
If you don't want to trim the branches, you can take the way of hanging and bending. For example, hanging a heavy object on one side of the branches will cause the branches of Australian fir to tilt, which will naturally bend after a long time, just like the modeling diagram of how Australian fir bends above. But don't be too heavy, otherwise it will easily deform the branches and lose their beauty.
Note: after the branches of Taxodium ascendens are bent, the whole potted plant may tilt to one side, so it is best to plant it in a wide and short pot, which is beneficial to the stability of the plant. If it is a tall, thin and straight flowerpot, the flowerpot may fall over after it is tilted to a certain extent.
Conclusion: After reading the above contents, I believe everyone should know how to shape Australian fir with wire. If you want the branches of Abies australis to bend quickly, you'd better use artificial load, but you must control the weight to prevent the plants from dying under the load.
