Bonsai evergreen, as a common indoor foliage plant, is loved by many enthusiasts because of its evergreen and tough leaves. In order for evergreen bonsai to grow vigorously and green, daily maintenance work is crucial.
1. Light management.
Evergreen prefers a well-lit environment, but direct sunlight can damage its leaves. Therefore, in daily maintenance, bonsai should be placed indoors in a well-lit place, such as near a window or balcony. When the sun is too strong in summer, it is necessary to provide proper shade to prevent sun exposure.
2. Temperature control.
Evergreen is suitable for growing in a warm environment, and the optimal temperature range is 16 28. In winter, you should pay attention to keeping warm to avoid frost damage caused by too low temperature. In summer, care should also be taken to avoid excessive temperatures, which can affect its normal growth.
3. Water management.
Evergreen prefers a moist environment, but too much watering can also easily lead to root rot. Therefore, watering should follow the principle of "see dry and wet", that is, see the surface of the soil dry before watering, and ensure that the soil is fully soaked with each watering. In summer and dry environments, the frequency of watering should also be increased appropriately to keep the soil moist.
4. Fertilization method.
In order to ensure the healthy growth of evergreens, regular fertilization is essential. You can choose to use nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium compound fertilizer, apply it once a month, pay attention to follow the principle of "thin fertilizer and frequent application", and avoid excessive fertilizer concentration leading to "root burning". At the same time, some water-soluble foliar fertilizer can also be added when watering to increase the shine and thickness of the leaves.
5. Pest control.
Although evergreen is more resistant to diseases, it may also encounter some pests and diseases during the growth process. Once signs of pests and diseases are found, measures should be taken to prevent and control them in time, such as spraying insecticides, cutting off diseased branches and leaves, etc. At the same time, maintaining good ventilation can also help prevent the occurrence of pests and diseases.
With the right care done with it, your evergreen bonsai can thrive and add a touch of greenery and vitality to your daily life.
