Brandy

Now there are few kinds of brandy. Huahua remembers that when she was a child, there was a tree in every yard. As soon as the flower bloomed, the fragrance was floating all over the house. I don't know if there are still kinds in Huayou's house now

In the season when brandy is in full bloom, there are still old people who come out to sell flowers and wear them into a string with thread or iron wire, which can be hung on their bodies~

Planting brandy

Maybe popularity is also a reincarnation. When we see all the flowers, we return to the ancient aesthetics and plant a white orchid

1. Propagation method of brandy

Brandy can't be cutted. Generally, grafting and layering are used to reproduce. The operation is complex. Qualified flower friends can challenge it

Grafting method: generally, 2-3-year-old magnolia, Michelia and magnolia trees are used as rootstocks. The branches of brandy are grafted onto the rootstocks from May to June, bound with plastic film and maintained normally

Layering method: it is better to use brandy with more than 3 years old. Choose the thick branches with 1-2 years old at the upper end. The branches should be longer than 15cm. Peel 3 / 4 of the skin at 5cm at the end of the branch. After peeling, spray carbendazim solution for disinfection, then wrap it with slightly wet soil and fix it at the peeling position

Spray water to keep the soil moist. After about 10 days, you can cut the branches under the soil, cut a little every week, and cut off the branches after 2 months. At this time, it basically takes root in the soil and can be planted directly

I think it's too expensive to buy the seedlings directly, but I don't think it's a good way to distinguish them

Bai Lan grows slowly. Many flower friends directly buy seedlings that are more than one year old to raise. Everyone says that Bai Lan is delicate, but after finding out the maintenance law, it is no problem to raise it for decades

1. What kind of soil does brandy use

Brandy is a tree like flower. It's best to plant it with relatively compact garden soil mixed with rotten leaf soil. The flowerpot is made of pottery or porcelain, with good air permeability

2. How to water brandy

Brandy is sensitive to water quality. It's best to precipitate it with clean tap water before pouring it. It likes water and is afraid of waterlogging. It is not suitable to pour too much water every time. It is recommended to spray water, which can not only clean the leaves, but also make the leaves and branches "drink" water

3. Can you dry the brandy

Brandy likes light, but is afraid of sun exposure. It's best to put it in a bright place at home. In summer, you should pay attention to shade. You can see light before 10 a.m. and after 10 o'clock, you can still shade or move into the shade indoors

4. Problems of yellow leaves and falling buds of brandy

The brandy in the flower market generally uses the glue soil in the south. This soil has a high viscosity. The flower friends have just bought it home and usually put it indoors. The ventilation is not enough. In addition, the pot soil is airtight and watered into waterlogging. As soon as the yellow leaves and rotten roots come and go, the brandy will live soon

Once you buy the brandy planted with clay, wash the roots when you get home. Be careful not to hurt the roots. After drying, plant it again in the breathable garden soil mixed with rotten leaf soil, and then you can raise it at home

If you don't want to wash the roots and change the soil, you'd better keep the brandy you just bought in a ventilated yard or terrace. You can keep it well by properly controlling the water and mastering the rules

5. How long do white orchids bloom

Brandy mainly blooms in summer and autumn. It is not cold resistant in winter. Keep warm. If it is properly maintained, it can also be opened in the heating room. Grafted brandy may grow to more than 50 cm before flowering, and the layering is a little earlier

The flowering period of white orchid is long. The flower bud can be picked off, put on with needle and thread, and hung at the head of the bed. It can also be carried with you. No one doesn't love white orchid~
