Actually, there is no crystal Jasmine in jasmine. Maybe it's because the name dogtooth flower is so grounded that it's given a name of art point. As for why it's called dogtooth flower, there are mainly two opinions about it.
The first way to say this is probably because the edge of its petals is wrinkled. It looks like it was bitten by a dog.
However, Hua Hua thinks that the wrinkles on the edge of the petals are more like the wrinkles on the dried books after soaking. Does it sound more poetic?
The second way is that the fruit of the dogtooth flower is like the dog's tooth. A flower friend with a dog at home can judge ~ .
Dog toothed flower is still very good to raise! There are a lot of flowers, and the fragrance is not very strong. Recently, Huahua has been fascinated by the simple and elegant pure wind. When you see the blooming dog toothflower, you can't love it anymore.
Keeping it at home can be used as a potted plant to decorate the room. It can not only nourish the eyes, but also make the air fresh and pleasant. In addition, dogtooth flower can also be used for aromatherapy or medicine.
Dogtooth flower has a long flowering period, which is open from June to November every year. Huahua feels that this flower can definitely become a necessary flower for a new generation of popular families! If you think the fragrance of jasmine and gardenia is too strong, a pot of dogtooth flower is the best one!
Bermudagrass prefers loose and fertile slightly acid soil. Humus soil, garden soil and sand soil can be used to mix soil according to the ratio of 2:2:2.
Sufficient light is necessary. Only when the light is sufficient, can the flower bud differentiate normally. We can put it in Nanyang terrace for maintenance at home. If the light is not enough, it will cause the dog's teeth to turn yellow.
Dog's tooth flower is not cold resistant. It needs to be moved into warm indoor maintenance at 10 ℃ in winter. In summer, when the temperature is above 35 ℃, sunshade shall be paid attention to, and it shall be placed in the living room or East and West windowsills for ventilation and cooling.
When watering, always keep the basin soil moist. When the temperature is high, spray some water to keep it moist.
Fertilizer can be applied from May to September every year. The flowering period of bermudagrass is relatively long. It can use huaduoduo No.2 once a month and stop applying fertilizer in hot summer.
Dogtooth flower needs to be changed once a year or two. When changing the basin, you can pad a little bean cake at the bottom of the basin as the base fertilizer to ensure the nutrient supply.
It is also important to prune the potted dog toothed plants. First of all, we should cut off the yellow leaves of the dead branches and reduce the waste of nutrients.
As long as the temperature is above 10 ℃, it can be pruned all year round basically. After the flowers are blooming, the residual flowers should be pruned in time, and 1 /2 or 1 /3 of the long branches should be cut off according to their own needs.
Cutting is also simple. Select healthy young dogtooth flower seedlings, cut 8-12cm, smear Carbendazim and put it in a ventilated place to dry. After drying, directly insert it into the prepared substrate, water it and put it in the shade of beiyangtai for two weeks, and then take root.
