When it comes to winter, freezing is a problem that many flower lovers have to face. So is planting elm bonsai flower lovers. Except for the plants that grow in cold area, we should pay attention to the temperature of plant growth environment in the daily cultivation in winter. The potted elm belongs to the plant with certain cold resistance, so it can not be cultured indoors. But be careful not to put it in the shade outside. If you don't touch the sun for a long time, it may cause damage or even death to the potted elm. When it is placed outdoors, it should not be directly blown by the cold winter wind while ensuring the sunshine. In a word, the growth environment of this kind of plant in winter should ensure two points: enough sunlight and places where the wind can't reach
In winter, the potted elm will enter the dormancy period, so we should pay attention to reduce watering. In addition, this kind of plant will not be placed indoors where the temperature is above freezing point, and will be cultivated outdoors where the sun is shining and the wind is not blowing. Therefore, watering needs to be controlled less. It's best to keep the soil in the basin dry. Remember, water the elm plant in winter rather than over watering it.
During the winter dormancy period, the potted elm has no leaves. At this time, many bare branches are useless waste branches. If the pruning is reasonable, it can not only make the plant look more beautiful, but also provide sufficient nutrients for the growth of new buds in the spring of next year. However, it should be noted that when pruning redundant waste branches, do not touch the reserved small branches. These buds are very fragile. Once they are damaged, they cannot absorb nutrients, which will greatly affect the image of the whole plant in the next year.
