As the summer heat wave heats up, so does nature's enthusiasm for it. At this time, there is a tree that quietly blooms with its unknown beauty - that is the Luan tree. You may have seen it on the side of the street, on a corner in a park, or on a school path, but did you know? Every year from June to September, Luanshu will hold a grand flower party that belongs only to it.
The flowers of the Luan tree are not as showy and dazzling as roses, nor are they as magnificent as peonies, but it has its own unique charm. Although the flowers are small, they are topped with large conical inflorescences, sprinkled like **rain, bringing a touch of coolness and surprise to the hot summer. After the flowering period, the tree will also bear fruit like a small lantern, which lasts from September to October, adding a bit of fun to autumn.
In this article, we will not only explore the secrets of the flowering period of the luan tree, but also learn how to maintain such a tree with high ornamental value at home. Whether you're a seasoned gardening enthusiast or just getting started with plant care, here are some tips for you.
First, choose the right location. Luan trees love sunlight but can also adapt to semi-shady environments. If you're planning to maintain your tree at home, make sure it gets plenty of light. Secondly, the choice of soil is also important. Luan prefers well-drained soil, so when planting, you can add some sand to the soil to improve air permeability and drainage.
Of course, the right amount of water is also essential. During the growing season of luan trees, keeping the soil slightly moist is key. But be careful not to overwater it so as not to cause root rot. In addition, timely pruning can also help the tree maintain good shape and promote healthy growth.
With these simple steps, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the luan trees in your own home or in the public space of your community. Let's look forward to the ** rain in summer and feel the unique charm of Luanshu!
