How to make a Chunxiang mandarin bonsai? Wu Xuefen comes up with another novel idea
Recently, a reporter saw in the mandarin orchard of Wu Xuefen, a mandarin science and technology demonstration household in Xiaotang Township, Xiangshan County, that he has added another "science and technology" project this year - mandarin bonsai.
Wu Xuefen earned 300,000 yuan from growing mandarins last year, of which Chunxiang brought the greatest "sweetness," accounting for two-thirds. The Chunxiang variety not only has full sweetness, a refreshing taste and a long ripening period, but also has beautiful fruit shape and individual character, making it appealing. "Wouldn't it be nice if residents with the means grew a few at home for people to admire?" So he had a sudden inspiration and planned to cultivate mandarin bonsai.
Wu Xuefen told the reporter that he specially bought green plastic buckets from Sanmen and planted 300 plants in mid-April. "Each pot is 200 yuan, and they can be sold now." He is full of confidence about this.
