Brief introduction of Taxus chinensis in China
Taxus chinensis is a rare and endangered species left over from the Quaternary Ice Age 2.5 million years ago, and it is a living fossil in plants. From 65438 to 0994, Taxus chinensis was designated as a first-class protected plant in China, and 42 countries in the world called it a "national treasure" and a veritable "plant giant panda".

Maintenance skills of Taxus bonsai
First, try not to spray fertilizer on the leaves of the newly bought Taxus bonsai when the new buds sprout, because the Taxus bonsai has not really survived or the leaves are too tender at this time. If fertilization is applied at this time, the leaves or buds will shrink and curl. Thus affecting the normal germination of new roots, the amount of water sprayed on the leaves should not be too much, and the degree should be that the sprayed water droplets can be seen on the leaves but do not drip down. Spray it two hours before dark in the afternoon, and don't leave water droplets at night (especially when the amount is large), otherwise it will affect the normal growth of young leaves or the yellowing of leaves, and affect the healthy growth of plants. The reverse side of the leaf can be sprayed more than the front side, because there is a wax protective film on the front side of the leaf, which will hinder the absorption of nutrients and water, while there is no wax layer on the back side of the leaf, which has more pores and stronger ability to absorb water and fertilizer. So that the back surface absorbs faster and more than the blade surface). Depending on the situation and temperature, once a day or two or three times a day. Pay attention to frequent ventilation in the room.
Secondly, for the newly bought Taxus bonsai, transplanting it from the planting base to the flowerpot will damage part of the root system and make the nutrient supply between the root system and the branches and leaves unbalanced. Especially those bonsai with lush foliage, the evaporation of leaves is greater than the absorption of roots, and the leaves on them are curly and dry when the basin soil is kept moist. At this time, it is best to prune the branches and leaves properly to reduce the excessive consumption of water and nutrients by the branches and leaves and restore the growth of roots as soon as possible. At the same time, we should control watering and keep the soil in the basin. At the same time, Taxus chinensis has strong germination ability, especially the growth ability of new branches, which is resistant to pruning. After survival, new branches and leaves will germinate soon. If necessary, plant rooting agent or rooting agent can be used, and the pot soil can be watered once every seven days or so, and it can be watered three or four times continuously (using good quality products and not too much water), so that the root system can grow rapidly and healthily. Restore the supply balance of roots and leaves as soon as possible, so that yew can grow well.
3. As the nutrient content of potted Taxus chinensis is limited, it can only meet the growth needs for about half a year, or the current plant shape is large, which consumes a lot of nutrient content. It is recommended that consumers replace the original pot as soon as possible after purchasing. Because our company re-potted bonsai for more than a month, it was stored in the distribution company for a period of time, and yew likes fertile and loose soil. It is best to change the pot as soon as possible. When changing pots, the inner diameter of the new pot should be at least five centimeters larger. Every year in February and March, before the new buds germinate, the trees and the pot soil are poured out together under the condition that the pot soil is not dry or wet. Try not to break the original clay ball. If you find too many roots after survival, you can cut off the bad roots appropriately. Put the tree in a new flowerpot and fill it with nutrient soil. Only by closely connecting the soil and roots in the pot can you improve the survival rate, otherwise the plants will not survive and will not grow vigorously. But don't press the soil too hard. If the roots are too hard to breathe air, the roots will rot and the plants will die. Water once immediately after planting. Leave the basin in the shade for a few days. After watering, the pot soil should not be turned over, otherwise it will be easy to harden, or the soil is too solid and has poor air permeability, which will easily cause root rot.
4. Fertilization method of Taxus bonsai: The three elements of plant growth are nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, and nitrogen fertilizer can promote the growth of flowers and branches; Phosphate fertilizer can promote the formation of flowers and fruits; Potassium fertilizer can promote the growth of stems and roots.
Because bonsai is cultivated in limited potted space and limited cultivation soil, organic matter is decomposed into inorganic salts by bacteria and absorbed by roots. With the growth and consumption of Taxus chinensis, the nutrients in potted soil are gradually lacking, resulting in insufficient growth supply. Although the prepared nutrient soil is used in bonsai, it is not suitable for fertilization within three months after purchase. As long as the potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution is poured or sprayed once every seven to ten days at night 1000 times. Control the amount of water, not too much. Only when the leaves are pale, the plants are thin, the leaves are yellow and white, the leaves are angular, the leaves are "dry-burned" and the leaves are premature, apply 1000 times of liquid urea and 800 times of potassium sulfate to remove the sediment, and then water the soil once a month or so. It is best to use fully decomposed light bean cakes (about 10%) the next day after fertilization. The above two fertilizers can be used alternately, or you can dig two small pits in each pot and put five or six urea and seven or eight high-quality compound fertilizers in it. Cover with soil and water to dissolve fertilizer. Taxus bonsai should not be fertilized with raw fertilizer or thick fertilizer. Topdressing should be based on nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizers, not too concentrated.
Five, bonsai watering method: the principle is "no watering, watering thoroughly".
Water is an important part of flowers and trees. All life activities of flowers and trees must be carried out with the participation of water. No matter photosynthesis or transpiration, it is inseparable from water. Water can maintain the swelling pressure of cells and straighten the branches and leaves. However, if the limit is exceeded, the plant growth will be weak. If there is too much water in the basin soil for a long time, the leaves will turn yellow, the leaves will fall off, the roots will rot and even die.
