Podocarpus modeling method, Podocarpus is one of the most common green plants in our daily life. Luohansong has always been favored by most people because of its lush and unique temperament. There is also a lot of feng shui about placing Luo Hansong at home. Let's take a look at Luo Hansong's modeling method.

Luo's modeling method 1 1. Luo's four modeling skills.

1, Tie: Tie requires strong hemp rope and tough bamboo stick. Tie the branches of Podocarpus with a bamboo stick with hemp rope, and then fix one end of the bamboo stick on the trunk, so that the branches can grow in a specific direction according to the stylist's wishes and achieve the purpose of modeling.

2. Pressing: Pressing refers to pressing the trunk to one side until it leans and finally bends. In this way, the tree on the inclined plane can present a completely different artistic beauty from the vertical plane. Because the branches of arhat pine are like human arms, clustered into hemispherical leaves, born at the top of the branches like human palms, plus curved trees, like a greeter greeting guests with bent arms, which is very vivid.

3. Binding: Use bamboo poles, aluminum wires, hemp wires and other materials to make various complex shapes, including pavilions, animals and so on.

4, hanging: hanging bricks and other heavy objects, so that the branches droop, resulting in inclined plane effect.

5. Shearing: After tying and hanging, you can trim it. The purpose of this is to make Luo Hansong's shape more round and full. Pruning needs to combine season, water and fertilizer management, cut off too long branches, highlight branches and promote more branches. Only after repeated pruning can we achieve satisfactory results.

Second, how is Luo shaped?

1, trunk modeling

For the effect of trunk bending, both inclined trunk and bent trunk can be cultivated with columns. Use tools, such as wires and screws, and measures, such as carving and twisting, trunk shape, bending and tilting. The height of modeling arhat pine is usually controlled at 1.5m ~ 3.5m, and the modeling principle is "modeling by trees".

2. Branch modeling

Branch modeling, including branch selection, direction adjustment, growth control, extension posture correction, etc. Choose Podocarpus with slightly curved trunk, cut off weak branches, whorled branches and branches below 1/3 of trunk, and proceed from bottom to top. Leave the stout side branch 1/3 above the trunk as the first main branch.

Leave one branch on each floor, and the first branch of the trunk is longer. The wire is wound from the trunk to the first main branch, and forms a 45-degree angle with the end; Then the first main branch is bent into an "S" shape, and the included angle with the main branch is less than 90 degrees, and the branchlets are bound with metal wires and are in the same plane with the first main branch; Then, the whole is trimmed into an oval shape. So that the spacing between branches of each layer is appropriate; The distribution of branches, the combination of virtual reality and density. Tied layer by layer in the same way, the first main branch is the thickest and longest, and gradually becomes shorter. Then, it is covered with steamed bread, and the overall layout is triangular. Six months to a year, that is, the metal wire needs to be disassembled and re-bound.

3. Crown pruning

Cut off dead branches, diseased branches, parallel branches, endogenous branches, etc. Dormancy period every year. In the growing period, when the new shoots grow to about 10 cm, they can be topped and promote branching. If it blooms, you should pick some buds in time to avoid consuming nutrition. Stop pruning after 1 1 month, otherwise the new buds will be easily frozen after germination again.

Luo modeling method Luo detailed modeling steps:

1, root modeling

Many novice friends always subconsciously ignore the carving of the roots of arhat pine when making bonsai modeling. In fact, if the roots of Podocarpus are well cultivated, the value of its bonsai can be greatly improved. To shape the roots of Arhat pine, we must first ensure that its roots are more dynamic, so that it is more convenient to operate in the later stage.

Many old bonsai of Luohansong are mostly grafted, so its root system is not very developed. When you want to shape the roots, you must make sure that the roots of Podocarpus are developed and strong. Different from branches and leaves, the root modeling method of Arhat pine can be operated according to everyone's aesthetic feeling, whether it is pressed, tied, tied or hung, which mainly shows the distinct aesthetic feeling and strong sense of strength of Arhat pine bonsai.

2. Branch modeling

Everyone should know a lot about the shape of branches. We can use these skills to shape the branches of Arhat Pine bonsai, and we can shape a vigorous and powerful branch shape by pruning, rolling and layering without damaging the normal and healthy growth of the branches.

The shape of the branch has more subdivision. For example, those who like waterfront style can be made into waterfront style, and those who like cliff style can be adjusted according to the characteristics of cliff style. It depends on the preferences of flower friends.

It takes a long time to shape the branches, so you can't be impatient. If you accidentally hurt the branches, you will lose more than you gain.

3. Blade modeling

The leaf modeling of Podocarpus bonsai is also a long-term project, because with the growth and development of Podocarpus bonsai, its leaves will continue to sprout and grow, so in order to ensure the beauty of the bonsai, everyone should trim it regularly.

In addition to pruning leaves according to the adjustment of branches, it is also necessary to clean up some dead branches and yellow leaves in time. Remember to pick the top during the vigorous growth period of Podocarpus, which can promote the development of branches and other leaves and ensure the lush and refreshing leaf shape of Podocarpus.

Arhat pine modeling method 3 Arhat pine's geomantic function

Podocarpus is a kind of pine trees, also known as Podocarpus, Evergreen Podocarpus, Pinus sylvestris, Chichimatsu, Cedar, Podocarpus and Cypress Jiangnan. It is an evergreen tree, which can be as high as18m. It is usually pruned to keep low.

Podocarpus leaves alternate, spirally arranged, and also divided into male and female. Seeds are bigger than seeds, and mature ones are red. Plus green seeds, like a bald monk in a red robe, hence the name Luohansong.

Podocarpus is very common in the south of China, because it is planted in flowerpots for viewing, and its wood is used in architecture, medicine and sculpture, so it is of great value.

The important reason why Luohansong is favored by the world is that it has two feng shui functions: making money and turning evil into right.

First, as far as Luohansong's habits are concerned, its four seasons are evergreen. In Feng Shui, Luo Hansong can not only make money into treasure, but also increase wealth.

Secondly, in Buddhism, Lohan is a symbol of well-being. Later, the famous 18 Lohan was respected by ordinary people and benefited all beings. Therefore, arhat songs are considered to ward off evil spirits.

In the traditional culture of China, Luohansong symbolizes longevity, wealth preservation and good luck. In Guangdong, there is a folk saying that "there is a Podocarpus at home, and the world is endless".

Ancient officials in China also liked to plant Podocarpus in the courtyard and regarded it as the patron saint of official positions. In some places, Luo has been endowed with the incarnation of gods, which can bring peace, happiness and wealth.

In the tradition of China, Luohansong symbolizes longevity and is considered to bring happiness and well-being to his family. Luohansong, in particular, still grows in temples and some ancient temples, and has been planted for generations to ward off evil spirits and avoid harm. In addition, several Podocarpus trees are often planted outside the house and in the courtyard, which not only symbolizes auspiciousness, but also symbolizes wealth.

In addition, Luo also has the function of improving the mind and edifying the body and mind, but the requirements of Feng Shui are extremely strict, so there is another voice saying that Luo Duo is a thorn and should not be placed in financial position.

Luo Hansong pays attention to feng shui in the placement position.

1, Podocarpus is suitable to be placed at the door.

Podocarpus is a kind of ornamental plant with good feng shui meaning, and it is also very particular at home. Generally, Luohansong can be placed at the door, which is the place where wealth comes in and out. Placing 12 pots of Podocarpus at the door indicates the coming of wealth, which is beneficial to the development of wealth at home.

Moreover, Luo has the feng shui function of town house to ward off evil spirits, and it has the feng shui function of town house to ward off evil spirits when placed at home.

2. Luohansong should not be placed in the living room.

Many families like to put plants in their living rooms, and Luo Hansong is one of them. But pay attention to put Luohansong in the living room. If there is something to ward off evil spirits in the living room, you can put it in the living room to melt it. If there is no evil spirit in the living room, placing Podocarpus in the living room will easily lead to the loss of wealth at home.

Because the most important thing in the living room feng shui is harmony and fluency, but the leaves of Podocarpus are needle-shaped and have evil spirits, so don't put Podocarpus in the living room.

3. Luo should not put it in the financial position.

Luo is full of thorns. Therefore, generally speaking, it is not appropriate to place Podocarpus in auspicious places at home, because Podocarpus leaves are needle-shaped and have evil spirits, which are evil spirits in geomantic omen.

And the residential financial position is the position of gathering wealth, which should be auspicious and not fierce. If you put a handful of Luohansong on the financial position, it will lead to the financial position being washed away by the suffocation of Luohansong's spikes, which will lead to the financial position not gathering wealth. This feng shui layout is not conducive to the family's wealth, and it is easy to lead to financial ruin.

4. Luohansong should not be put in the bedroom.

Most people will put Luohansong at home and in the office, because its function is beautiful, but the bedroom is where we rest, and our gas field is the weakest when we rest, so if we put Luohansong in the bedroom, it will easily lead to the influence of suffocation, which will affect our fortune over time.

5. Podocarpus is suitable for the window.

Luo has certain shade tolerance. From the perspective of the five elements, Luo likes the semi-cloudy environment, and explains the way of one yin and one yang, which makes Luo produce a lot of gas fields. Generally, it is best to put it in the position facing the sun by the window, which can symbolize the health and longevity of his family and bring more well-being and good luck to his family.
