What this says is that the podocarpus, as a tree stump with extremely good symbolism, can bring people auspiciousness and well-being, and can bring people wealth, and it is also attracting more and more attention from friends who grow stump bonsai.

Friends who grow stump bonsai all know that the podocarpus is also called tusong, belongs to the family Podocarpaceae and the genus Podocarpus, and is an evergreen coniferous tree. The podocarpus likes warm and humid climates, has weak cold tolerance, strong shade tolerance, and likes well-drained, moist sandy loam. It adapts strongly to soil and can even survive on saline-alkali soil. It is fairly resistant to many polluting gases such as sulfur dioxide, hydrogen sulfide and nitrogen oxides, and has strong resistance to pests and diseases.

In view of these characteristics of the podocarpus, many friends in the city are growing podocarpus bonsai. But to grow a podocarpus bonsai well, you have to start from the source and manage it carefully. The specific approach is to dig wild-collected podocarpus stumps on the mountain. First, choose ones with relatively distinctive stump shapes; when digging, try to take the stump with a large root ball, and at the same time do not damage the main root of the podocarpus, so that the podocarpus can survive more effectively.

Second, for potted podocarpus, choose a relatively larger pot so that the podocarpus has more room to grow. At the same time, mixing suitable potting soil is also essential for the growth of the bonsai. Here, for the choice of potting soil for growing podocarpus, I used leaf mold, pine needles, decomposed cow dung and medium sand mixed evenly in a 2:1:1:1 ratio as the growing medium for the podocarpus bonsai. This kind of medium works very well, and the podocarpus bonsai grown with it is quite impressive.
