As more and more people grow flowers, many gardening enthusiasts like to keep some green potted plants at home. Common flowers like clivia, spider plant and pothos can not only beautify the home but also purify the air. But now many gardening enthusiasts also grow some fruits and vegetables at home, which can not only be enjoyed for their looks but also eaten. And some enthusiasts even like to grow some fruit trees on their balconies, such as lemon trees, apple trees and other trees.

What I want to share with you today is that you can grow a kind of plant at home, and that is sea buckthorn. In fact, this plant is very common in parks, especially in autumn, which is the season when sea buckthorn berries ripen. The trees are covered with clusters of red berries, very charming and beautiful. Sea buckthorn berries have a very high vitamin content, 20 times the vitamin content of grapes. Keeping a pot at home allows you to enjoy it and also eat it to supplement vitamins.

So the topic I want to share with you today is:

It is the "King of Vitamin C". Growing it at home is prettier and easier than grapes, and it looks even better as a bonsai!

Growing sea buckthorn as a potted plant is very simple. Generally, cutting propagation or seed propagation can be used to get a sea buckthorn potted plant. Choose a normal flower pot, and choose the pot size according to the size of the plant. Use ordinary flower-growing soil to plant the sea buckthorn plant, and it can meet its growth needs. In daily care, you need to pay attention to watering, light and pruning.

Suitable watering

Sea buckthorn is a woody plant, so when watering, you need to water each time according to the principle of watering when dry and stopping when wet, and do not let water accumulate in the pot. If water accumulates for a long time, it will cause poor breathing of the plant roots, which will then lead to root rot and plant death. So remember that each time you water, make sure to water thoroughly at one time, and water again after the soil has completely dried out.

Sufficient light

Sea buckthorn is a plant that loves light very much, so in spring, summer, autumn and winter every year, it can be placed outdoors for care and receive sufficient light, so that the plant can grow robustly. Especially in spring and summer, it can allow the plant's flower buds to develop and produce more flowers, and it can bear dense fruit.

Reasonable pruning

To grow sea buckthorn as a potted plant, you need to prune the plant continuously. Especially every spring, you should do heavy pruning and cut off all leggy branches and dense branches. Because what determines how much fruit sea buckthorn can bear is the new branches of the current year, you need to prune the old branches as much as possible so that more new branches grow in spring, and in this way it can bear dense fruit in autumn; moreover, continuously pruning the plant can also train it into a household bonsai, with very high ornamental value.
