1. When is the flowering season of the golden trumpet tree?
The flowering season of the golden trumpet tree is from March to April, and the flowering period is relatively short, about 10-15 days. After flowering, it grows leaves and seed pods, and by autumn the branches are lush and full of green leaves, a very beautiful sight, and by winter the branches are bare and the leaves have fallen, showing a desolate kind of beauty.
2. How do you grow the golden trumpet tree so that it flowers?
1. Temperature
Generally this plant grows best under conditions of 23 to 30 degrees, and it cannot adapt well to the cold season, so in our country, more people grow it in the south.
2. Light
This plant requires a large amount of light during the seedling stage, but if this plant is grown in a greenhouse, because light and ventilation are insufficient, the growth of the young seedlings produced may become weak, and then they may be affected by damping-off disease. So after its seeds germinate and leaves have grown out, you must make sure that the shading degree of the growing environment does not exceed 50 percent, and you must also ensure the ventilation conditions of the environment.
3. Soil
To cultivate large seedlings, you should choose some loose, fertile soil, and this soil should have good capacity for both watering and drainage. These cultivation soils should be divided with good ditches to facilitate irrigation and drainage, and about 3000 plants can be grown per mu.
4. Flower fertilizer
Before growing, you should bury some flower fertilizer in the soil as base fertilizer, and these base fertilizers should be fully and evenly mixed with the soil, and then plant on top of it.
5. Tying
After planting, when the seedling has grown to 30-50 cm tall, insert a bamboo pole two meters tall beside the seedling to support and guide the plant so that it can grow upright. And every time the seedling grows 50 cm taller, it must be tied once.
6. Pruning
This plant must be pruned regularly during its growing period, cutting off the relatively low branches that grow out from the sides, and after the leaves fall in winter it must be pruned once more.
Overall, the golden trumpet tree blooms around Qingming, and the flowering period is about half a month.
