To make boxwood potted plants, you can choose the old pile of boxwood for cultivation, trim off long roots and dense branches, then cultivate it in the open field for 2 years, and then add soil. Choose beautiful flowerpots when serving pots, and generally choose pottery pots as the main ones.
In terms of basin soil, fertile and loose basin soil with good ventilation and water permeability is more suitable for the growth of boxwood. After the boxwood potted plant is finished, it should be placed in a semi-shady place, and the sun should be scattered on the boxwood potted plant to maintain a certain light.
Boxwood potted plants need to be watered frequently. When watering, we should master the principle of "rather wet than dry" and keep the soil moist, but we can't accumulate water, otherwise the roots will rot easily. In hot summer, water every day. When the temperature is extremely high, it is necessary to spray some water on the leaves of boxwood.
The growth period of boxwood is from May to August. During the growth period of boxwood, fertilization should be appropriate. When applying fertilizer, mainly apply some decomposed and thin cake fertilizer water for about 3 times. Pay attention to the concentration of fertilizer every time you apply fertilizer to avoid burning the new roots of boxwood.
When planting boxwood potted plants, the branches and leaves of boxwood should be trimmed in time to keep the shape of boxwood potted plants.
