Cultivation sites should be sunny, ventilated and cool. Fireworks are not strict with soil, but they grow more vigorously when planted in fertile soil with rich organic matter, good drainage and deep soil layer.

Dig a bigger hole and apply foot fat. The base fertilizer should be decomposed compost, and an appropriate amount of bean cake or bone meal should be added. Before planting, the soil should be mixed evenly, watered 1 time and fermented 1 ~ 2 months. The first watering after planting should be thorough and cool. When the seedlings grow to about 70 cm, scaffolding should be set up, their branches should be dragged on the shelf, and coring should be carried out to promote the germination of lateral branches, so as to facilitate more flowering.

Fat water should be suitable. Fireworks have a fast output, many flowers and a long flowering period, and they need plenty of fertilizer and water. Topdressing 1 time per month during the growth period. Top dressing should use decomposed thin bean cake water or compound chemical fertilizer to make it flourish and blossom everywhere. In order to keep the soil moist, the number of watering should depend on the soil moist condition. In hot summer, in addition to watering, water should be sprayed on branches and leaves and the surrounding ground 2 ~ 3 times a day to improve air humidity. When it comes to flower bud differentiation in autumn, watering should be reduced and fertilization should be changed to phosphate fertilizer. In the growing season, the dilute liquid fertilizer combined with nitrogen and phosphorus is usually applied once every two weeks. Topdressing liquid fertilizer with nitrogen fertilizer at bud stage is beneficial to flowering and plant growth. The water should be dry and wet, and there should be no water in the basin. When the temperature is high in summer, water should be sufficient, and water should be sprinkled on the ground near the flowerpot to improve the air humidity. In autumn, flower bud differentiation begins. At this time, water should be less to control vegetative growth and promote flower bud differentiation.

Potted fireworks should be planted in deep earthen pots, with humus soil, garden soil and mountain mud as the main culture soil, and appropriate amount of organic fertilizers such as decomposed compost, bean cake and bone meal as the base fertilizer. After planting, it is the same as ground planting management. It grows well in loose and fertile slightly acidic soil with good drainage; The south can be cultivated in the open field, the north needs potted plants, and it can overwinter indoors in winter. Potted plants can be mixed with humus soil, compost soil and sandy soil, and a small amount of cake fertilizer powder can be added as base fertilizer.

Adjust the shape of plants. Battlefield flower is a perennial evergreen climbing vine with tendrils, which can be climbed up by other things. In family cultivation, in order to improve the ornamental effect, large and deep flowerpots can be used when planting. When the seedlings grow to a certain height, set a flower stand in the pot, tie the stems and vines to the flower stand, distribute them evenly and maintain them on the sunny balcony. You can also plant it in a big pot, and set a flower stand on the balcony to let it climb up and grow. When the branches grow to a certain height on the attachment, you need to pick the heart to promote the germination of new branches, so as to bloom more. Branches that have blossomed will not bloom again in the coming year, but new branches will sprout. Therefore, some old and weak branches should be cut off in time to avoid consuming nutrients and affecting the flowering in the next year.

Fireworks are not cold-resistant, so they need to be moved indoors in winter in the north. During overwintering, put it in a sunny place indoors, control watering and stop fertilization, and keep the room temperature above 10℃. Generally, it is necessary to gradually raise the room temperature from the middle and late February of 65438+,and at the same time, water and fertilize appropriately to make the flower buds bloom in February ~ March. Fireworks can be propagated by cutting and layering, but layering takes root faster and has a higher survival rate. Generally, after flowering, select strong branches for more than one year, cut off the parts that need to be buried in the soil, bury them in the soil with a thickness of about 10 cm, and fix them with bamboo nails to prevent them from coming out. Always keep the soil moist. Generally, it can be cut from the mother in autumn and planted separately.

Pest control:

1. Diseases: For common leaf spot and powdery mildew of fireworks, spray 50% carbendazim wettable powder 1500 times.

2. Pests: There are whiteflies and scale insects in the fireworks, and 40% omethoate emulsifiable concentrate can be sprayed 1200 times. [ 1]

Garden application: it is mostly planted in courtyards, flower grids, flower gates and fences for vertical greening. Large plants can be planted and placed in flower sheds, restaurants, open-air restaurants, courtyard doors and other places, as the top surface and surrounding greening, the scenery is excellent; It is also suitable for planting flower walls, covering soil for slope protection, or for vertical or ground greening of balconies of high-rise buildings. It looks magnificent and is an important climbing flower in South China. Dwarf varieties can be coiled into patterns and cultivated as potted flowers.
