How to cultivate honeysuckle in potted plants?

Potted modeling method:

① Cutting. In early spring, the thick old vines with a length of 2~25 cm and a diameter of more than 3 cm are cut and inserted into a deep barrel basin filled with Gaza's culture soil, with a length of 6 cm exposed above, and then they are watered and maintained in a shady place.

② pruning. After the honeysuckle sprouts and produces new vines, two new vines are selected and the other new vines are cut off from the base. The remaining two new vines are cored one long and one short, and then tied with lead wire to make them twist and grow to one side, and then tied when secondary lateral vines are drawn.

③ modeling. After beginning of autumn, the plants were detached from the deep pot and replaced with rectangular shallow bonsai pots. The old vines were planted obliquely and horizontally in the pots, and the roots were straightened down and put into the pots, exposing the upper half of the old vines, which were covered with moss or wet sacks and often drenched with water to keep them moist. Stop watering after October, and when the moss dries, remove it to expose the old vines, and then use the lead wire wrapped around the side vines to twist the shape at will. ?

making skills of honeysuckle bonsai

1. controlling water and fertilizer

honeysuckle potted plants must limit vine growth, control tree shape and increase flower quantity. Avoid the rain in spring, reduce watering, prevent overgrowth, make the stems and vines mature, shorten internodes and dwarf the plant shape. Apply less or no nitrogen fertilizer before flower bud formation, and increase phosphorus and potassium fertilizer to promote flower bud formation and increase flower quantity. Proper application of nitrogen fertilizer during the branch stop growth period and bud pregnancy period will make the flowers big and bright.

2. Change pots at proper time

Generally, potted flowers change pots once every two years, and honeysuckle bonsai changes pots once every three or four years. Because of the few times of changing pots, the absorption function of roots is weakened, plant aging is promoted, overgrowth is inhibited, tree vigor is eased, and stems and vines are stout, internodes are dense, plant shapes are dwarfed, and flowers are lush.

3. shoot control with growth inhibitor

When the branches of Lonicera japonica sprout about 5 cm, 7-1ppm paclobutrazol, 2-4ppmb9 paclobutrazol or 1-2ppm chlormequat are sprayed or poured for several times in succession, so as to prevent the stems from growing vigorously and dwarf the trees.

4. Dwarf shaping and pruning

Dwarf shaping and pruning are carried out from the upper pot planting and cultivated into thick stems and short branches. During the growth period, the vigorous buds should be removed, and the strong branches should be cored early, and the long branches should be cut and the short branches should be kept when pruning. Through shaping and pruning, the vine winding type is transformed into a short shrub pile landscape with short branches and short stems, uniform and dense branches and obvious layers. Honeysuckle treated with long sunshine is a plant that likes light and long sunshine. If the environment is poorly ventilated and humid, the stems and vines will grow in vain, the branches will be thin, the leaves will easily yellow and fall off, and there will be few flowers. Therefore, the honeysuckle bonsai should be placed in a sunny place, and it is best to have direct sunlight all day long, so as to make the branches stout and short, the leaves luxuriant and the flowers numerous, and prolong the flowering period.

processing: the modeling of honeysuckle is mainly based on climbing, combined with pruning. Climbing ties the main branches together, weaving them into trunk, making them grow into a whole, and then further processing. Small branches are generally processed by pruning.

tree shape: it mainly includes inclined dry type, curved dry type and cliff type, and the roots are gradually exposed. Small branches are often hung to show their natural characteristics. In addition, honeysuckle can also be made into stone-attached bonsai.
