1, planting time
In the planting method of honeysuckle, it is suggested to plant honeysuckle in spring and autumn every year, because the climate in spring and autumn is most suitable for seed germination, which greatly improves the survival rate of planting. The specific time is March-May in spring and September-65438+1October in autumn.
2. Potted soil
If you want honeysuckle to grow vigorously, it is best to prepare loose, breathable and fertile soil, and choose river sand, pastoral soil and humus soil to mix according to the ratio of 4: 3: 2 to meet the growth of honeysuckle, or you can directly use nutritious soil for maintenance.
3, selecting seedlings
Whether the seedlings are propagated by sowing or cutting, it is necessary to ensure strong growth and complete roots, so as to ensure the survival rate. It is best to take the soil with you when digging, which can protect the root system well and adapt to the new environment and resume growth faster after planting.
4. Plant seedlings
When potted, first put some prepared soil in the flowerpot, then put the honeysuckle seedlings into the soil together with the soil, and then fill the soil for compaction. If it is a bare-rooted seedling, it is necessary to ensure that the root system stretches, fill the soil slowly, and compact the surrounding soil. After planting, it needs to be watered in time, put in a warm, well-ventilated and slightly cool environment, and the environment will return to normal growth in a week or so.
water
Honeysuckle is very drought-tolerant, so when there is enough rainfall, there is no need to water it. Water it properly when the weather is dry, and water it every 3-5 days after flowering. If it rains for a long time, pay attention to the problem of water accumulation. Water in winter until the soil turns white.
Brief introduction of honeysuckle
Honeysuckle. (honeysuckle. ) is a semi-evergreen twining vine of Lonicera. Young branches of Lonicera japonica Thunb. are orange-brown and often covered with rough bristles; The leaves are generally lanceolate and oval, with coarse hairs on the edges, dark green at the top and light green at the bottom; Gold and silver flower buds are large, petals are ovoid or ovoid, pubescent, and corolla is white; The fruit is round, blue-black and shiny when ripe; Flowering from April to June; The fruiting period is 10 to 1 1 month. Lonicera japonica gets its name because it never withers in winter.
Honeysuckle has strong adaptability, a wide range of temperature, and it likes humidity and waterlogging. It needs moist soil, likes weak light and rainy environment, and grows slowly under strong light. Sandy loam with thick soil layer is the best, and it can be cultivated on hillsides, terraces, dams and barren hills. The propagation methods of honeysuckle are mainly seed propagation and cutting propagation.
