If you want to make a beautiful rosewood bonsai, you can't do without a flowerpot, soil and plants. Before you officially start to make it, you should first choose the flowerpot and plants. That's not to say, the flowerpot can be selected according to your own preferences, and the plants can grow vigorously. Let's focus on the preparation of soil. Red flower is suitable for the growth of alkaline soil. Therefore, in addition to loose, permeable and fertile soil, the soil also needs to be alkaline, at least not acid soil.
The best time to excavate stumps is in spring, the best time is around the equinox, when the stump growth state is the best, the wounds left after excavation are easy to heal, and the vitality of the bonsai produced will be relatively strong.
After the stump is collected, it should be pruned according to the thickness and shape of the stump, mainly pruning some useless branches, leaving the trunk and the branches for later forming, and pruning part of the residual roots on the stump, so as not to damage the fibrous roots.
Generally, the stumps we select are not very large stumps. If there are many fibrous roots in these stumps, they can be directly planted in the basin. However, those stumps are coarser and larger or the fibrous roots on the stumps are less. If they are directly planted in the basin, the survival rate will be greatly reduced, and they should be planted in the land for a period of time and then treated in the basin.
Generally, a lot of new roots will grow in three months after the pot is put into use. At this time, the growth of rosewood can basically be pruned and plucked. In order to avoid its growth in the too high direction, it is necessary to remove the heart every other period of time. In addition, the external shape of honghuajimu bonsai can be determined according to your own preferences, such as the most common ball shape, of course, it can also be a triangle, or a funny gourd shape.
First of all, when digging stumps, we should try not to damage the roots, otherwise it is not conducive to the survival of the basin. The second is that the soil can not be acid soil, and to ensure that the soil is not poor permeability. Finally, it is necessary to remove the heart regularly to avoid its continuous upward growth and thus affect the shape of the whole rosewood bonsai.
