There are many kinds of Euonymus japonicus, among which Euonymus microphylla and Euonymus tanguticus are the most common bonsai plants. Moreover, boxwood grows slowly, and its plant shape is not very big, but its leaves are small, bright and resistant to pruning, so it is also a traditional bonsai tree species, which has always been favored by bonsai lovers. Here is a brief introduction to some details that should be paid attention to when making boxwood bonsai.

First of all, the stump material

The materials of boxwood bonsai can be propagated by cutting and layering. You can also go to the flower market to buy some beautiful seedlings for maintenance and processing. If you are a beginner in bonsai, you can pick up some boxwood seedlings eliminated by urban greening. Without damaging the environment, you can also dig wild boxwood, and there are often stocky and quaint old boxwood piles.

Second, the mining season

Boxwood should be planted in spring and summer, and the survival rate of digging and transplanting will be relatively high in this season. In the process of excavation, more lateral roots should be brought, the incision should be smooth, and as many soil groups as possible. After digging, it can be wrapped in damp moss in time to prevent water loss. Before planting, you can soak in water or add some rooting liquid to improve the survival rate.

Third, pruning miscellaneous roots.

Trim the remaining roots and branches before putting them into the pot, and trim the incision of the roots smoothly to prevent infection and rot. And trim off the branches that affect the shape, and be careful not to be too heavy. Too few branches and leaves will also affect normal photosynthesis, resulting in plants unable to send new branches or even die.

Fourth, the requirements of cultivating soil

Buxus buxus has strong adaptability to soil, but likes loose and slightly acidic soil with good air permeability. After the pile survives, the loose and fertile culture soil will be prepared again for potted plant maintenance. Humus soil, garden soil, river sand, coal cinder and a small amount of organic fertilizer can be used to make culture soil.

Verb (abbreviation for verb) daily maintenance

Provide a warm and humid environment during maintenance, and pay attention to shading and sun protection in summer, otherwise the leaves will turn yellow. Keep the basin soil moist during the growing period to prevent the leaves from falling off due to lack of water. In order to promote the growth of plants, apply decomposed cake fertilizer to them every half month. Usually, we should also pay attention to pruning, remove messy branches and leaves, reduce nutrient consumption, and maintain a beautiful plant shape.

Six, modeling requirements

Boxwood modeling also needs a gradual process. Usually, it can be made into various forms of bonsai, such as straight stem, inclined stem, jungle shape, cliff shape, literati tree and so on. By pruning and binding.

The crown can be trimmed into clouds, steamed buns and natural shapes. When modeling, thicker branches are not easy to bend, so don't bend them hard to avoid breaking them. You can use pruning as the main method, and you can also use Pinza or traction to make bending modeling step by step.

After Buxus Buxus survives, after later maintenance and technical treatment, it will gradually become a fine bonsai with dense density, scattered height and distinct layers. It can also be rooted according to the needs of modeling, increasing the vigorous and simple charm of bonsai.
