Cultivation management
(1) The temperature should be appropriate. Ivy likes warmth, and the suitable temperature for growth is 20℃-25℃. It is afraid of heat and not cold. Therefore, when placed indoors for maintenance, attention should be paid to ventilation and cooling in summer, and the room temperature should be kept above IO-C in winter, and the minimum should not be lower than 5℃. (2) The light should be moderate. Ivy likes light and is more resistant to shade. Under the condition of semi-light, the internodes are short, the leaves are consistent in shape and bright in color, which is suitable for indoor culture under strong light. If you can put it in the outdoor shade for a period of time in spring and autumn, and let it see more sunshine in the morning and evening, it will be full of vitality and green leaves. But pay attention to prevent direct glare, otherwise it will easily cause sunburn. (3) Water should be moderate. During the growing period, water should be wet and dry, and the soil in the basin should not be too wet, otherwise it will easily cause rotten roots and fallen leaves. In winter, the room temperature is low, especially the watering should be controlled to keep the soil slightly wet. The winter climate in the north is dry, so it is best to spray Duchuan/KLOC-0 with water close to room temperature once a week to keep the air humidity, so that the plants will look alive and the leaves will be light green and shiny. (4) Fertilization should be reasonable. For home cultivation of ivy, Sichuan humus soil or charcoal soil mixed with 1 4 river sand and a small amount of bone powder should be selected as basin soil, and1double pancake fertilizer should be applied for 2-3 weeks in the growing season. Fertilization is generally not applied in summer and winter. When applying fertilizer, nitrogen fertilizer should not be applied in a partial way, otherwise the patterns and patches on the leaves of mosaic varieties will fade. The ratio of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium is1; 1; L is suitable. Spraying 1~2 times of 0.2% potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution on the leaves in peak season will make the leaves more beautiful. However, attention should be paid to avoid polluting the leaves when applying liquid fertilizer, so as to avoid burning the leaves. (5) pruning in time. When the seedlings grow to a certain height in the pot (preferably 3 plants per pot), attention should be paid to timely coring, promoting multi-branching, and making the plant shape plump. (6) copy must be done well. Ivy is mainly planted by cutting. Two points must be paid attention to when cutting: first, do not use perennial branches for cutting, but use stout young branches. Because old branches are not easy to take root, even if they take root, their climbing ability will be poor in the future. Second, we should pay attention to protecting the bud points on the cuttings. Because the buds of ivy branches are very small, they can be easily erased if you don't pay attention. Therefore, when cutting the lower leaves of cuttings, we must be careful not to erase the bud points at the same time, otherwise it will affect the survival of new plants. (7) Potted plants should be supported by pillars, so that they can climb up and grow, adding infinite affection to the beautification of the living room space, or cultivated by hanging pots, so that the soft vine stems naturally droop and float, dancing the eagle smartly and enjoying the fun of evergreen seasons. Therefore, it is a rare product in modern living rooms, auditoriums, performance plugs and other places. Usually change the basin once every two years.
How to raise ivy
Ivy, with oval leaves, dark green leaves, light green veins, and stellate white hairs on the scape and branchlets.
Canary ivy, the stem climbs high, with stellate hairs on it, and the leaves are light green and turn copper green in winter. Leather leaves are evergreen, the leaves are leathery all over, occasionally cracked, green and shiny.
Japanese ivy with hard leaves and dark green luster. Origin and habit originated in China, distributed in Asia, Europe and North America, and mainly distributed in Central China, South China, Southwest China, Gansu, Shaanxi and other places in China.
Sex likes warm and cool environment, avoiding direct sunlight, but likes abundant sunlight, cold resistance, strong stress resistance, lax requirements on soil and water, and neutral and slightly acidic are the best. Morphological characteristics and uses of perennial evergreen woody vines.
Climbing growth, the stem can reach more than 20 meters, with roots and scales attached to the branches. There are two forms of leaves: one is triangular or halberd-shaped leaves on sterile branches, which are whole or three leaves; The other is the lanceolate leaves on the fertile branches, which are entire and have slender petioles.
Umbelliferae plants are planted at the top of branches and have light green and white colors and smells. The flowering period is from September to165438+1October. The fruit is spherical, ripe in April-May of the following year, and red or yellow when ripe.
Ivy is a beautiful climbing plant with changeable leaves and evergreen seasons, which can be used as scaffolding or vertical greening of walls. It is also suitable for indoor potted plants, and it is also a very good indoor foliage plant, which can be used as potted plants, hanging baskets, totems, plastic plants and so on.
Ivy is also a configuration material for cut flowers. In addition, it is a good ground covering material when planted with other plants.
The whole plant can be used as medicine. The cultivated ivy grows vigorously and is easy to survive.
Potted plants are often cultivated in the mixed culture soil of sphagnum moss, humus soil and garden soil, and cultured indoors with sufficient or no direct light. When potted, all kinds of brackets should be tied and shaped.
It is necessary to keep the soil moist in the peak season and fully water it. In the high temperature season, attention should be paid to ventilation and sprinkling water to cool down, otherwise it will easily lead to weak growth. In winter, the basin soil should not be too dry or too wet, and there should be a certain air humidity.
Ivy can be propagated by cutting, branching and layering. It can be carried out in all seasons except winter, and greenhouse cultivation is not limited by seasons, and it can be propagated all year round.
Cutting method: the suitable time is April-May and September-65438+1October, and the semi-mature branches with aerial roots are used as cuttings with one or several nodes. After cutting, it should be shaded, moisturized and increase the air humidity, and it can take root in 3-4 weeks. Branches crawling on the ground can take root at nodes and go deep into the soil, so ivy can be propagated by branching and layering.
The main pests and diseases are algae leaf spot, anthracnose, bacterial leaf rot, leaf spot, root rot and epidemic disease. Leaf roller, scale insects, red spider and other pests are more serious.
Your pet often dies, which may be related to the lack of sunshine in your bathroom.
How to raise ivy
It is very adaptable to the environment.
Like cold climate, strong cold tolerance; Avoid high temperature and sultry environment, and the growth will stagnate above 30℃; The requirements for light are not strict, and it can grow and develop indoors in direct sunlight or insufficient light. Reproduction, multi-cutting reproduction.
Potted plants should be put into the greenhouse in winter and kept at 10℃. Ivy is a fleshy flower and can't be watered often.
If you want to see whether it is wet or dry, you should wait until the soil is dry before pouring it, and then pour it thoroughly. Ivy is propagated mainly by cutting.
All the year round, you can cut it at any time as long as the temperature is suitable, except for the cold in winter and the heat in summer. Young branches are mostly used for cutting, and old branches can also be cut, but the root system is poor.
Generally, 1-2-year-old branches with the growth of about 10 cm are used as cuttings and inserted into seedbeds based on coarse sand and vermiculite, or directly into pots filled with loose culture soil. Before cutting, the branches of canary ivy with large leaves must be soaked in water before cutting.
After cutting, it is placed in a slightly cloudy environment with high air humidity to keep the substrate moist. When the temperature is about 15-20℃, it can take root in about two weeks.
The mother plant can also be cut and planted after the stems and roots are taken out. Sometimes the mother plant is buried in the sand to expose the leaves, and adventitious roots can occur at each node. After internodes take root, they can be cut off and planted in sections.
Ivy is not strict with the soil. Generally, fertile and loose soil is used as potted substrate. If garden soil and humus soil are mixed in equal amount, they can be mixed with humus soil, peat soil and fine sand soil to make flour with a small amount of base fertilizer, or cultivated with water moss alone. Generally, 3-5 plants are planted in each pot.
Usually put it under diffuse light to make the leaves dark green and shiny, especially in a cool environment, the leaves are more beautiful. The high temperature in summer must be placed in a cool and ventilated place.
High ambient temperature is unfavorable to the growth of ivy, so foliar spraying should be adopted. Insufficient water, the plant base is easy to fall leaves; Too much watering can easily lead to root rot.
Water and fertilizer management should be strengthened at seedling stage to promote growth. Fertilization should be appropriate in general growing season, especially in spring and autumn, and liquid fertilizer should be applied 1-2 times a month. At the same time, it should be noted that the ratio of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium in fertilizer should be 1: 1, and the ratio of nitrogen should not be too high, otherwise the flowers and leaves will turn green.
In the process of plant growth, attention should be paid to pruning to promote multi-branch and plump plant shape. In addition, ivy often occurs aphids in spring, and it is also prone to red spiders and scale insects under high temperature, dry and poor ventilation conditions, so it should be sprayed as soon as possible.
How to cultivate ivy? How about ivy?
Ivy has the function of absorbing harmful substances and is one of the essential plants for family farming. What are the cultivation methods of ivy? According to the life habits of Parthenocissus tricuspidata, the cultivation methods of Parthenocissus tricuspidata and the pest control measures in the cultivation methods of Parthenocissus tricuspidata were summarized.
Ivy originated in Europe, likes warm, humid and semi-cloudy environment, is cold-resistant, avoids high temperature and dry environment, is shade-tolerant, and can also grow in sunny places, fearing strong sunlight. Loose and fertile loam soil is the most ideal, the most suitable growth temperature is 25-30℃, and it can safely overwinter above 0℃ in winter, with strong cold tolerance, short-term low temperature of -3℃, and leaves will appear red in cold areas, so it is best to overwinter indoors.
Ivy likes light and is also resistant to shade. Under the condition of semi-light, the internodes are short, the leaves are consistent in shape and bright in color. Long-term lack of light will make the leaves lose their beautiful color and become all green, which is suitable for indoor bright places. If plants are moved out of the outdoor shade for a period of time in spring and autumn, so that they can see more sunshine in the morning and evening, they will grow more luxuriantly. Ivy life habits Ivy likes light and is more resistant to shade. It can grow well in half light.
Avoid direct sunlight in summer, pay attention to keep the soil moist, and often spray water on plants. Ivy is a perennial evergreen vine of Araliaceae and Ivy, with oval or broadly ovoid leaves.
Because of its green and bright branches and leaves, many varieties of flowers and leaves, and soft and drooping stems and vines, it can be used as a potted plant, or hung or erected to decorate the room. Ivy is cold-resistant, so it is no problem to spend the winter indoors.
Ivy has no strict requirements on soil, and generally soil can grow. But if potted, the pot soil can be mixed with pastoral soil, 1/4 plant ash, and a small amount of base fertilizer.
The selection of plant ash can not only keep the pot soil loose and breathable, but also provide more potash fertilizer to meet the growth of ivy. Ivy can be applied with liquid fertilizer every two weeks during the growing season, or with granular chemical fertilizer once a month. For mosaic varieties, the proportion of nitrogen fertilizer should not be too high to avoid the mosaic turning green.
Green ivy can grow in strong light and shade, while mosaic ivy should not be exposed to the sun for a long time in summer and autumn. When a large number of branches and leaves of ivy sprout in spring, no matter what their branches and leaves are, they should be placed in the sun and receive sufficient light, so that the branches and leaves will flourish.
For columnar potted plants, they should be pruned and pitted frequently. It is rainy and hot in summer, so ivy should be careful.
The ivy placed outdoors in rainy season should be poured out in time as soon as there is water in the basin, so as to avoid the roots from being stained and rotted for a long time. In the hot summer season, it is best to water in the morning or evening, so as to avoid the great difference between soil temperature and water temperature, which will cause the root system to be damaged by inversion temperature and eventually lead to plant withering and death.
Ivy is a beautiful climbing plant with changeable leaves and evergreen seasons, which can be used as scaffolding or vertical greening of walls. It is also suitable for indoor potted plants, and it is also a very good indoor foliage plant, which can be used as potted plants, hanging baskets, totems, plastic plants and so on.
Ivy is also a configuration material for cut flowers. In addition, it is a good ground covering material when planted with other plants.
The whole plant can be used as medicine. The cultivation method of ivy should choose loose, fertile and well-drained soil for planting potted plants.
One part is made of humus soil 4 parts, garden soil 3 parts, river sand 2 parts and base fertilizer 1 part. There are three common cultivation methods: (1) hanging pot cultivation.
That is, cutting off the branches over 1 year, and using vermiculite, perlite, humus and other mixed substrates to make the branches and leaves extend out of the pot is the simplest and most feasible planting method in the family. (2) Vertical planting in high pots.
That is, erect a spiny spiny spiny column or sunflower stick in the basin, tie the surviving plants to the column, and let the tiny branches and leaves droop naturally. (3) making bonsai.
It is a rare bonsai material to dig the ivy "stump" with large leaves in the field, trim and plant it, and then graft it with variegated leaves. If you can make a cliff-like tree, the ornamental value is higher.
In the peak season of fertilization and growth, 1 pancake fertilizer should be applied every half month, or 0.2% potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution should be sprayed on the leaves to make the leaves more beautiful. However, it should be noted that the leaves should not be polluted when applying liquid fertilizer, so as not to cause the leaves to burn.
Watering should not be watered too much at ordinary times, but it is necessary to see dry and wet. Water more in summer, often spray water on plants to improve air humidity, which is beneficial to growth. Water should be controlled when the room temperature is low in winter, otherwise the roots will rot easily.
The winter climate in the north is dry, so it is best to spray the leaves 1 time with clean water close to room temperature every once in a while to keep the leaves clean and green. Temperature and light: Ivy likes light, but it is also more resistant to shade. It can grow well in half light.
If we can choose a period of time in spring and autumn to put it in the shade outside and let it see more sunshine in the morning and evening, it will grow vigorously and its leaves will be bright green. However, attention should be paid to avoid direct glare, otherwise it will easily cause sunburn, leaf edge and tip burns.
The growth temperature of ivy is 20-25℃, which is not cold-resistant and afraid of heat. Therefore, when cultivating indoors, attention should be paid to ventilation and cooling in summer. It is best to keep the indoor temperature above 10℃ in winter, and the lowest temperature should not be lower than 5℃, otherwise it will be vulnerable to freezing injury.
When the seedlings in the new pot grow to a certain height, they should be pulled out in time to make them grow lateral branches and form a full plant shape. Generally, change the basin 1 time every 2-3 years in early spring.
Pests and diseases can prevent and control the common leaf spot of ivy, and it can be prevented by spraying Bordeaux solution 200 times. If the indoor ventilation condition is poor, scale insects and red spiders are easy to occur, and 50% marathon 800 times solution and 40% dicofol 1000 times solution are sprayed to kill them respectively.
Ivy can be propagated by cutting. The cutting season is very wide, and it can be carried out in spring, summer and autumn.
Cut off 20-30 cm long stems and vines, remove the lower leaves, and then bury 2-3 sections of the base in the soil. As long as the soil remains moist, it will soon take root. You can also layer the stems and vines continuously, place the stems and vines horizontally on the soil surface, press them on the nodes with clods, and then keep the soil moist, and the nodes will soon grow roots.
After rooting, it can be cut from internodes according to 3-5 knots. A new stem will grow soon after cutting, and it can be transplanted when it grows to about 10 cm.
Planting method of ivy
Ivy, also known as ivy and ivy, is a perennial evergreen vine foliage plant of the genus Ivy in Araliaceae.
Ivy is a typical shade vine, all of which are woody stems. Its stem is 3-5 meters long and has many branches and aerial roots. The shoots are hairy, rust-colored, scaly, with alternate leaves, leathery, oily green and smooth.
There are two types of leaves: the leaves of vegetative branches are triangular, oval or halberd-shaped, usually trifoliate or entire, 5-8 cm long and 2-3 cm wide; Leaves of flowers and fruit branches, oval and ovate, entire, slender petiole. Flowers are umbels and then gather into panicles.
Due to long-term cultivation, there are many horticultural varieties, reaching more than 100. At present, most of the commonly cultivated varieties are variegated leaves, such as the golden heart ivy, with trifoliate leaves and gold spots embedded in the center of dark green leaves; Silver-edged ivy with gray-green leaves and milky white edges; Three-color ivy leaves are gray-green with white edges. Autumn and winter will turn into deep rose, and spring will return to its original color.
Ivy is native to Europe, Asia and North Africa. It is very adaptable to the environment.

Ivy leaves are dark green, and the mosaic varieties have many different stripes or patches, and the colors are bright and clear; There are many aerial roots on the stem, which are easily adsorbed on rocks, walls and trunks and can be used for climbing or hanging cultivation. It is an ideal material for indoor and outdoor vertical greening. As a potted plant that likes shade and leaves indoors, it can be cultivated in a bright room for a long time.
In a dark room, it can grow well as long as it is supplemented by lighting. When indoor greening and decoration, it is hung on the top of high-legged flower stands and bookcases, giving people a natural and free and easy aesthetic feeling; It can also be planted in small pots and placed on coffee tables and desks, which looks exquisite and elegant; It can also be used as a columnar climbing plant, with full three-dimensional effect.

Ivy is propagated mainly by cutting. Semi-lignified shoots, about 1 0 cm long, were cut in spring and autumn, and potted directly in culture soil, which can take root after a period of time.
When ivy has mites or aphids under high temperature or poor ventilation, it can generally be washed or sprayed with soapy water 40% omethoate 1000 times to 1500 times.
Maintenance method of ivy
Ivy cultivation management: Ivy has strong adaptability and no special requirements for environmental conditions.
Ivy is a typical negative vine flower, which can't be directly irradiated by strong light. It is resistant to humidity, drought and barren, and grows well in fertile and humid sandy soil. Avoid alkaline soil.
Ivy is suitable for garden cultivation and potted plants. When potted, attention should be paid to shading in summer and moving indoors for the winter in winter.
Keep the soil moist during the growth period, do not over-dry, and pay attention to ventilation. Dilute fertilizer should be applied 2-3 times a year; If too much fertilizer is applied, the beautiful features of plants will be lost.
When planting, it should be pruned again to promote more germination and branching. In the future, proper pruning will be carried out once a year in spring to shorten the main vines to control the growth.
Usually pay attention to the ventilation of the environment. Ivy generally does not suffer from pests and diseases.
Ivy is usually propagated by cutting or layering, or by seeds. Because ivy is easy to reproduce and survive, simple cutting methods are often used.
Cutting can be carried out in spring and autumn. The method is as follows: Take annual branches and cut them into sections with the length of 10- 15 cm for stable insertion, with leaves at the upper end; Insert the bed about 5 cm deep, pay attention to the shade, keep the bed moist, usually half a month; You can take root next month.
When transplanting, pay attention to let its roots carry soil, which is easy to survive.
