2. In the slow seedling stage after planting, with the increase of bud points, the amount and times of watering should be gradually reduced, so as to better stimulate the germination of new buds.
3. During the pruning process, don't prune the same branch many times, otherwise it will easily cause water loss, even if the healing ability is good in the later stage, it will not stand the toss. Therefore, before pruning, we need to conceive the overall trunk shape and determine the most suitable fixed branches and ornamental surfaces.

4. Because the bonsai branches of Myrica rubra are soft and highly plastic. When we shape the Myrica rubra bonsai, we can give priority to making it straight or curved. Then the branches and leaves can be layered, steamed or natural.
5. If you find it difficult to collect piles in the field, you can also choose sowing and cutting. Cutting is recommended here, preferably in rainy season. Two-year-old mature branches with the length of 10- 15 cm can take root in about one month.

2. Maintenance and management of Myrica rubra bonsai after cultivation: 1. After the sprouting of the pile, we can move it to the balcony or window with sufficient sunlight and warmth for maintenance, but if the illumination is too strong, it needs shading treatment.
2. Fertilization is generally carried out one month after the end of the slow seedling stage. At this time, fertilization is mainly to supplement the nutrients consumed in the early stage, mainly dilute nitrogen fertilizer, and phosphorus and potassium fertilizer can be supplemented in the later stage, once every two weeks depending on the growth situation.

When pruning this piece, don't cut off the new branches in a hurry. In the first year, you only need to raise the skeleton branches to achieve the effect of thickening and shaping. Wait until April-May of the following year, first cut off the branches or old dead branches that affect the modeling, and then twist the branches that need modeling properly with iron wires to make the branches extend horizontally outward to complete the preliminary modeling. After the spring of the third year, the thick branches will be tied and trimmed again, so that the branches and leaves will be layered into pieces, and the whole pile shape can be completed by coring and perfecting the tree shape. Pay attention to the pruning this time.
4. Before pruning in the second year, it is necessary to turn over the pots and change the soil, because the soil fertility of the piles is exhausted after growing for one year. In addition, before turning over the pots and changing the soil, we can consider using bactericidal protective agents such as carbendazim to disinfect the soil once.

5. In the field of watering, it is generally the principle of watering when it is dry and wet. Yangmei likes wet water, so it needs to be watered frequently to keep the soil moist, which is beneficial to the growth of Yangmei. At the same time, you should always spray water mist around to keep the air moist. In addition, water should be controlled in winter, and it should be moved outdoors to receive light in sunny days.
6. In pest control, yellowing and sooty blotch will occur. If it is yellow, it can be prevented by spraying ferrous sulfate aqueous solution. If it is sooty blotch, it can be prevented by spraying thiophanate-methyl. Pests, mainly aphids and scale insects, generally occur in the rainy season when the air is humid and the temperature is high. After the occurrence, insecticides such as chlorpyrifos or thiamethoxam can be sprayed for control, usually once every 5-7 days, 2-3 times in a row.
