Breeding environment: keep the shade cloth covered with Ligustrum lucidum leaves in summer and do indoor activities in winter. Watering matters: water once a day in summer, and spray mist on and around the leaves. Plastic pruning: pruning dead branches, weak diseased branches, overlapping branches and interfering branches. Pest control: bury 3-4 mothballs in Ligustrum lucidum bonsai.

How to breed Ligustrum lucidum? 1, culture environment

Ligustrum lucidum likes a growing environment with plenty of sunshine and good ventilation. In hot summer, draw a shade cloth to keep cool, or put it in a semi-cloudy and semi-sunny place. Although the plant has a certain cold tolerance, it should still be moved indoors in winter in northern China.

2. Watering matters

During the cultivation of Ligustrum lucidum, the soil in the basin should be kept moist at ordinary times, watered once a day in summer, sprayed with water and fog around the leaves, and the air humidity in local microclimate should be kept high, watered every 2-3 days in spring and autumn, and supplemented once a week in winter.

3, plastic pruning

The germination ability of Ligustrum microphyllum is very strong, and many sprouting seedlings will be produced around the rhizosphere of the mother plant. Every spring, we should dig up and plant, prune dead branches, weak diseased branches, overlapping branches and interfering branches in the growing season of the plant, and then cut short long branches to make Ligustrum microphyllum form a plump ball.

4, pest control

The main pest of Ligustrum lucidum is Cerambycidae. If you see the dung accumulation of pests in spring, inject 80% dichlorvos emulsifiable concentrate into the wormhole with a syringe and seal the wormhole with yellow mud, or bury 3-4 mothballs in each bonsai to control pests.
