According to the growth situation, the basin should be turned once a year in spring. The basin soil should be loose, fertile and have good drainage and air permeability. Two parts of saprophytic soil, two parts of coarse sand, vermiculite or perlite, one part of garden soil are commonly used, and a small amount of plant ash or bone powder is added as the base fertilizer, which can be used after mixing.
At ordinary times, watering should be done "not dry but not watered thoroughly", so as to avoid ponding of basin soil and long-term rain, so as to avoid rotten roots. Pay attention to good ventilation in high temperature in summer to prevent leaves and rotten roots caused by sultry and damp.
During the growing period, the thin liquid fertilizer or compound fertilizer which is mature once every 20 days should be applied. After applying fertilizer, the soil should be loosened to increase the permeability of the soil, which is conducive to the absorption of roots.
In addition to the high temperature in summer when a little shade, other seasons should be as much as possible to receive sunlight. In summer, the ventilation should be strengthened to avoid the hot and humid environment, or the roots will rot and cause fallen leaves. Keep basin soil dry in winter, and it can survive safely at about 5 ℃.
During the growth period, the branches that affect the tree shape should be cut off at any time (the cut branches can be used as cutting or grafting materials), and the grafted plants should be wiped off the sprouted branches and leaves on the rootstock in time. Every spring, the trees will be reshaped once a year to cut off the branches that affect the posture of the trees. The long branches will be cut short to promote healthy new branches and make the bonsai beautiful.
The propagation of Yale dance is usually done by cutting or grafting. Cuttage is generally carried out in the growing season. Cuttings can be pruned branches when shaping. The length of cuttings is not strict, but there should be at least 3 to 4 pairs of leaves. Remove the lower leaves before planting, air them for 1 to 2 days, and then insert them into the culture soil when the wound is dry, and put them in the place without direct sunlight, keep the soil slightly moist, and take root in 2 to 3 weeks. Seedling survival logistics thin fertilizer, so that it grows vigorously, when the plant grows to a certain size can be shaped!
The bonsai of Yale dance can be shaped by the combination of Panza and pruning. The common forms are straight dry type, curved dry type, inclined dry type, cliff type and waterside type. As it is a fleshy stem, do not put the metal silk into its epidermis when coiling, otherwise it will cause the fleshy stem to tear. Its branches are luxuriant, long branches are slightly drooping, and its crown is mostly natural, natural and elegant, with proper density and characteristics. The crown can also be cultivated into a compact triangle or steamed bread shape by pruning and promoting the development of twigs. For the dance of elegant music survived by cutting, it can be slightly twisted and trimmed, planted in a small basin, and matched with strange stones, which becomes a delicate and lovely, delicate and unique miniature bonsai.
