Rich seed, also known as cinnabar root, red umbrellas, and Bai Liang Jin, is a small evergreen shrub of the family Ardisia. It is light green at the beginning and bright red when it matures. It is beautiful for a long time. Li Shizhen once described: "cinnabar roots grow deep in the mountains. The height of the seedlings is high. The leaves are like holly. The back of leaves is red. In summer, the roots are as big as tendons and red. This is like a hundred taels of gold. "The root and the whole plant can be used as medicine with bitter taste and cool nature. It has the effects of clearing heat and reducing fire, detumescence and detoxification, promoting blood circulation to remove blood stasis, eliminating phlegm and relieving cough. It is mainly used for tonsillitis, toothache, bruise injury, arthralgia, leucorrhea and menstrual pain. Let's learn about it!
There are also white or yellow seeds. When planting rich and precious seeds, we should use culture soil. We can directly use the nutrient soil purchased from the flower shop, or we can make our own nutrient soil. The soil should be fertile and loose, with good drainage.
Rich seed is a semi shade plant, so put it in a place with good ventilation and short sunshine. To properly block the sun, reduce temperature and increase humidity.
According to the different seasons, weather changes and spring, it is usually watered once every 3-4 days. In summer, it is hot, so it should be watered 1-2 times a day and 2-3 days in autumn.
The temperature in summer and autumn is high, so we should water it in the morning and evening. In winter, it is better to water at noon when the temperature is mild. Watering should be based on the wet state of the basin soil, neither dry nor ponding, is the best.
If fertilizing, fuguizi grows more vigorously in summer. We may need more nutrition. We can fertilize more;
In winter and early spring, the plants are basically in dormancy state, and can be applied less or no. Remember to apply less concentrated fertilizer, more thin fertilizer and more phosphorus and potassium fertilizer.
matters needing attention:
The main diseases of rich and precious seeds are root rot and leaf spot. In fact, the main causes of root rot are too strong soil, poor water permeability, improper watering and fertilization.
If there is a disease in the rich seed, it will appear abnormal conditions such as poor growth and yellow leaves at the beginning. At this time, we should pay attention to see whether it is a disease?
If so, we should spray 800-1000 times of thiophanate methyl or 1200-1500 times of 2.5% suspension seed coating agent, spraying the middle and lower parts of the plant for control. Spray once every 10 days or so, spray twice continuously to prevent the disease from deepening!
Fuguizi is a small evergreen shrub. It likes warm, humid, semi sunny and semi shade environment. Its suitable temperature is 16 ℃ to 28 ℃, and it can grow normally at 5 ℃ to 8 ℃. In winter, it can tolerate low temperature of - 4 ℃. Fugui seeds are mainly propagated by cutting new shoots. Generally, the branches sprouted in the previous year are cut from April to may, with the length of 15 cm to 20 cm. The cutting is treated with rooting powder and cutted with leaves. After cutting, shade and moisture should be strengthened. After 40 to 50 days of rooting, 70 days later, it was transplanted to the pot for cultivation, and the next year was flowering and fruiting. Generally, compound fertilizer should be applied once a month, and more nitrogen fertilizer should be applied at the shooting stage. Phosphorus and potassium fertilizer and commercial flower fertilizer with flower and fruit preservation should be supplemented at the flowering and fruiting stage.
Balcony planting, should choose to place in the afternoon without sunlight, in order to ensure the plant beautiful. If we want to cultivate the rich and valuable seeds of potted plants with short and strong plant shape and high ornamental value, we must increase the light or spray chlormequat to inhibit the growth in early summer. On the premise of not affecting the plant shape and ornamental of rich and precious seeds, proper pruning and shaping can be carried out in April and may every year.
