What are the cultivation methods and precautions for asparagus fern bonsai?
Asparagus fern is known as one of the Four Gentlemen of the Study. It is also called cloud bamboo, mountain grass, chicken-feather moss, and so on. Although it is named "bamboo," it is actually not bamboo at all. It is one of modern people's favorite potted bonsai. Native to eastern and southern South Africa, it is distributed across central China, the northwest, the Yangtze River basin and various places in the south. It belongs to the order Asparagales, family Asparagaceae. It loves to climb, has many branches, and its stems are very smooth and slender. A mature plant can reach a height of 3-6 m. Some people who keep asparagus fern can keep it for three or four years, while others can only keep it for a few months. This is because their care and management are inadequate, or they simply do not know how to grow it, and so it dies. Actually, growing asparagus fern is not that difficult. Below, the Tuliu.com editor brings you the <strong>cultivation methods and precautions for asparagus fern.</strong></p> <p style="text-align: center;"></p> <p style="text-indent:2em;"><span style="color:#FF8C00">I. Growth habits</span></p> <p style="text-indent:2em;">Although asparagus fern is called a gentleman, it really does have a gentleman's temperament. It is delicate and breaks easily. Asparagus fern cannot be exposed to scorching sun. Avoid direct sunlight; it likes shade, likes moisture, and likes warmth. The temperature should be kept between 12-18°C. Usually, once it exceeds 20°C, you must immediately open the window for ventilation and heat dissipation. In summer it fears heat, and in winter it also fears freezing and dryness. Even if it fears dryness, you still cannot water it too much, because too much water easily causes root rot. You need to grasp this balance yourself.</p> <p style="text-indent:2em;"><span style="color:#FF8C00">II. Choosing a pot</span></p> <p style="text-indent:2em;">To grow asparagus fern, first of all the requirements for the pot are not very high, but you still need to choose a suitable one, such as clay flower pots, porcelain pots, and so on. Generally, flat pots are mostly used for cultivation, planted in pots with a diameter of 14-18 cm; seedlings that have grown to 5 cm can be potted. Actually, we do not need to do this ourselves. For the asparagus fern we usually buy, we can repot it after a few more months, because at the beginning the shop selects a suitable pot to plant the asparagus fern. If growing it at home, just prune the asparagus fern according to your own aesthetic preferences. As for withered and yellow leaves, it is better to cut them off.</p> <p style="text-align: center;"></p> <p style="text-indent:2em;"><span style="color:#FF8C00">III. Temperature and humidity</span></p> <p style="text-indent:2em;">Although asparagus fern likes a warm environment, once the temperature in summer is higher than 32°C, the asparagus fern will immediately stop growing. In winter, the temperature generally should not be lower than 10°C. Once it falls below this temperature, frost damage to the asparagus fern will occur. When watering, it should not be too much; too much will cause the asparagus fern's root system to rot, while too little will cause the asparagus fern to wither. In hot weather, you can spray more water on its leaves to maintain stable humidity. Asparagus fern likes shade, so it can be placed in an indoor spot with scattered light. Except in winter, at other times it cannot be placed in a spot with direct sunlight. Asparagus fern likes fertilizer, so it can be fertilized once at regular intervals.</p> <p style="text-indent:2em;"><span style="color:#FF8C00">IV. Prevention and propagation</span></p> <p style="text-indent:2em;">Asparagus fern has a very strong clumping habit. Asparagus fern older than 3 years will grow new shoots at the base of the roots. When the small plants grow larger, division propagation can be carried out. Division propagation is best done in spring, as this makes survival easier. March-April in spring is the suitable time for sowing asparagus fern. Sowing is the main method of propagating asparagus fern. First peel off the fruit skin, wash and dry it, then sow. It will sprout in about one month or one and a half months. Asparagus fern is prone to leaf blight. Therefore, it must be ventilated frequently, and pest and disease prevention and control must be done well to protect the “little gentleman.”</p> <p style="text-align: center;"></p> <p style="text-indent:2em;">The above are the cultivation methods and precautions for asparagus fern brought to you by the Tuliu.com editor. I hope everyone will like them. Follow Tuliu.com to bring you more interesting and practical information. See you next time.</p>
