The rosehip (scientific name: Hibiscus sabdariffa Linn.), also known as Loropetalum, Loropetalum, etc., belongs to the order of mallow, mallow annual erect herbaceous plants.

The growing conditions of rosehips:

Rosehips are tropical and subtropical short-day crops, light-loving, temperature-loving, avoiding early frosts, and grow best at 25℃~30℃. General rose tomato in March-May sowing, September-November harvest, full-life span of 160-200 days, the effective cumulative temperature of 500-550 ℃ or so, on the temperature, humidity, light, soil conditions, etc. have certain requirements. [4] Soil rosehips belong to the taproot system, developed lateral roots, deep rooting, drought intolerance, flood tolerance, wide adaptability. In the medium or lower fertility of the sandy loam and pH6-8 range of soil grows well; fertilizer planting branching, sepal fat, high yield, but easy to grow and collapse and affect the yield; too thin, sticky soil growth is poor, prone to albino seedlings and other physiological diseases. Poor drainage during the growing period is easily infected with root rot, root rot and death. Harvest in case of rain, calyx easy to mold, directly affecting the yield and quality. Rosehips have a wide range of soil adaptability, plains, hills, mountains can be cultivated, red and yellow soil, green and purple mud, gravel and sandy soil, clay planting can be successful, in order to semi-mature yellow clay soil is good. Rosehips can be planted in rows with dwarf crops such as peanuts, beans and other crops or fruit tree orchards that are not in production. The same piece of land is generally good for two years of continuous cropping, continue to continuous planting susceptible to disease. [4] temperature with the temperature increases, seed germination time is shortened, the germination rate increases. Seed germination optimal temperature of 20-25 ℃, the average daily temperature of 16 ℃ began to germinate, nutrient growth requires more than 22 ℃, 10 ℃ growth tends to stop. Plant height, stem thickness, nutrient growth peak in July-August, when high temperature and high humidity to achieve the appropriate conditions for the growth of rosehips. [4] humidity in the growth period of waterlogged, highly fertilized soil, susceptible to green blight, white silk disease, the incidence rate of up to 40% or more, arid mountainous terrain, and even newly opened barren mountain planting, very few cases. [4] light rose eggplant is a strong light plants, planted in the shade of dense forests, planting density of 1 × 0.5m under dense planting conditions, the plant is high and thin pole, less branching, low yield, the number of hours of sunshine on the present buds and flowering period has a significant impact.?
