Never mind, don't throw bamboo away just because its leaves are yellow. Bamboo leaves that have just been cut are easy to turn yellow. Just cut off the yellow leaves.
Remember, don't leave the water, and don't be smart enough to put bamboo in the soil to raise it! In this way, the rich bamboo really can't live!
After a few days, the rich bamboo will grow roots, and naturally it will no longer turn yellow (but there are only two or three leaves left in the rich bamboo). Even so, if raised well, Fuguizhu can live to next year and grow new leaves by itself.
Note that if the leaves of Fu Gui bamboo continue to turn yellow after taking root, it may be because you have too many bamboos and the vase is too small. At this time, you should buy a liquid nutrient solution and drop a few drops, so that the leaves of Fu Guizhu will not turn yellow!
Fuguizhu, also known as Xianda Dracaena, is a foliage plant of Dracaena in Liliaceae.
Fu Guizhu is a small evergreen tree, which has no rhizomes underground and yellowish brown roots (which can be distinguished from bamboo and bananas). The stem is slender and erect, without branches. The leaves are lanceolate, with a length of10-20cm and a width of 2-3cm, and the petiole is sheath-shaped. The mottled color of leaves varies with varieties. Common cultivated varieties are: Fugui bamboo in Phnom Penh: the leaves are golden in edge and the center is green.
Silver-edged bamboo: the edge of the leaves is silvery white and the center is silvery.
Green leaf bamboo: also known as green leaf fairy dragon blood tree and wannian bamboo. The leaves are dark green. It is the budding variety of the first two.
Fuguizhu originated in the Canary Islands and tropical areas of Africa and Asia, and has been widely introduced and cultivated in China. Its nature likes high temperature and high humidity environment, has low requirements for light, and is also resistant to shade. Suitable for growing in sandy loam with good drainage. The optimum growth temperature is 20-30℃, and the overwintering temperature is 65438 00℃.
Fu Guizhu is propagated by cutting. Pruning is combined with plastic pruning. As the plant grows taller, the leaves at the base of the stem often fall off, and the plant deformation is poor. In the growing season, the stems can be cut into 5- 10 cm as cuttings, or vermiculite or river sand. Generally, it can take root and sprout in 1-2 weeks.
Potted bamboo can be planted with humus soil, garden soil and river sand in the same amount, or with coconut bran and humus soil and a small amount of base fertilizer as cultivation soil. The key to management is to master humidity and temperature. During the growing period, the basin soil should always be kept moist, and the leaves should always be sprayed with water to maintain a high environmental humidity. If it is too dry, the nib will dry up. Pot soil should not be too wet in winter, but water should be sprayed on the leaves frequently, and at the same time, attention should be paid to cold protection to prevent the leaves from yellowing, shrinking or even falling off. In May-September, liquid fertilizer or granular compound fertilizer is applied 2-3 times a month to keep the leaves green and bright. The requirements for illumination are not high, and it is suitable for growth under bright scattered light, and direct sunlight should be avoided. If exposed or dried in the sun, the leaves will be rough, scorched and dull, which will reduce the ornamental value.
Fu Guizhu's stems and leaves are beautiful, soft and elegant, with natural and unrestrained posture, bamboo charm and high ornamental value. It is suitable for small potted plants, used to decorate study, living room, bedroom and so on. , can be placed on the desk, coffee table, countertop. It looks rich and elegant, elegant and charming.
Potted bamboo
Purple sand pots and plastic pots are suitable for cultivating rich bamboo, and outdoor pottery pots are better. It does not choose the soil very well, and grows best in loose and fertile sandy loam. Humus soil, vegetable garden soil and sand can be mixed and cultured at the ratio of 5∶4∶ 1, and if a small amount of broken eggshells infiltrate, they will grow more vigorously. Turn the pot and change the soil once a year in spring. When turning over pots and changing soil, a layer of broken hard plastic foam is placed at the bottom of pots, which is convenient for ventilation, drainage, root rot prevention and easy to take off pots.
Water and fertilizer management: Fu Guizhu likes wet and fat, but indoor potted plants should control water and deduct fertilizer to make them grow slowly and improve their ornamental value. During the growing period, according to the change of seasonal climate, when the soil is dry, water should be poured every 2 ~ 5 days to keep the soil slightly wet and not waterlogged. Too wet soil is easy to grow white, and too dry leaves are easy to dry. Water should be sprayed on leaves frequently to increase the air humidity in the small environment, which is beneficial to their growth. Insist on applying thin fertilizer frequently, and apply a small amount of NPK compound fertilizer every 15 ~ 20 days. Excessive or single application of nitrogen fertilizer is easy to grow in vain. No fertilization in winter, less watering.
Temperature and illumination Fu Guizhu is native to Madagascar Island in the western Indian Ocean. Like warm, the optimum growth temperature is 18℃ to 25℃. It is not cold-tolerant. When the minimum temperature drops to 5℃, it should be wintered indoors, and the room temperature should be kept above 5℃. It likes an environment with plenty of scattered light. Summer and early autumn should not be exposed to the hot sun. It can be placed from late autumn to the next spring, within 2 meters from the window, where there is enough direct or scattered light. If it is cloudy, its leaves will be colored.
After many years of planting, the ratio of plant height to flowerpot size is out of balance, which affects the appearance. In May and June, it can be cut short at the distance of 10 cm to 15 cm. After cutting short, new branches will grow at the lower base, and the cut upper stems can be used for cutting propagation.
From May to September, rich and precious bamboos raised in water in bottles, or newly cut and rooted rich and precious bamboos, can be planted directly in the soil. Cut the rootless ones into 15 cm to 20 cm long, cut off the leaf springs of the buried part, then apply sulfur powder or plant ash on the incision, insert them into the vegetable culture soil, place them in the shade, spray water frequently to keep them moist, and move them to a place with sufficient scattered light for maintenance after they grow new leaves.
