How can a dead ficus bonsai be reused?
In our impression, eucalyptus grows very large. It can cover a wide range of eucalyptus bonsai, but in fact, a eucalyptus bonsai can be used as a miniature version of a ficus. It is very decorative in the home, and bonsai pruning also attracts much attention. Regarding eucalyptus matters, care can begin from these aspects:
Eucalyptus needs to be pruned once a year because it grows quickly. If the eucalyptus grows faster, it can be pruned twice a year. The shape of the eucalyptus is mainly achieved by pruning. Early spring is the better time to prune eucalyptus, but a eucalyptus bonsai can be pruned in other seasons as well. When pruning, dead branches, old branches and overlapping parts of the fork can be removed. Steep branches have a great impact on the overall shape, and these branches can be cut away.
Eucalyptus styling: when the eucalyptus takes shape, it can be constrained according to the growth direction of the eucalyptus. Common constraint methods can be used. You can choose the binding method you like, and let the eucalyptus grow according to your guidance. There are generally methods such as laying flat and single pole. Eucalyptus styling can also include exposed roots, which can make the eucalyptus landscape more beautiful, and the bonsai can also reflect the grower's aesthetics.
Eucalyptus is an evergreen tree species. Placed in the home all year round, it can give you a verdant view. The metabolism of eucalyptus will be reflected in the thinning of the leaves on old branches and slender branches, which will affect its ornamental value, so regular pruning will keep the eucalyptus in a fresh posture. If the eucalyptus is to be pruned twice, it is recommended to prune in spring and prune in summer. The disappearance of eucalyptus metabolism will make the eucalyptus look renewed. When cutting, you can use antler shears.
When pruning, you need to pay attention to the parts, because the pruning process is also a test of aesthetics. If the pruning transition is unnatural, it will make the bonsai show an unnatural state. When pruning, prune according to the normal growth direction of the eucalyptus. If the pruning is damaged, you can find a way to repair it, that is, re-sprout the pruned parts.
If you want to prevent the eucalyptus from growing too tall, you can reduce the buds on the branches by pinching, thereby preventing the eucalyptus from growing too tall and affecting the proportions of the bonsai. In addition, because eucalyptus sprouting often grows out, unnecessary buds can usually be seen growing and can be removed at any time.
The roots of the eucalyptus should be repaired in time to prevent the roots of the eucalyptus from growing too densely. If you think the eucalyptus has been covered by the original pot, you need to change the eucalyptus into a new pot. As long as some new roots are kept, the old roots need to be removed and replanted, to prevent the roots of the eucalyptus from becoming too luxuriant.
