Pearl Orange,Red fruit thin columns, do not say, the genus of Qiancao family; place of originDistributed in South America, central Taiwan and south, the Philippines, Australia, etc.
Morphology
Pearl orange plants will be said to be Succulent plants by flower buddies. In fact, it is not. Pearl orange and quiltsceae is a herbaceous plant. The scientific name is red fruit thin column grass.Or ovate triangle, about 6 mm long, flowers without stems, top -born, single, small.Nuclear fruit spherical, red when mature, with 2 small cores inside.
Growth environment
Pearl orange is bright and bright, not drought to resist.The soil of cultivation of pearl orange should be loose and breathable.It is placed in a bright half -shaded place (the winds in the south direction are ideal), but the sun should be avoided.Potted pearl orange in summer can be placed outdoors, but it also needs to avoid direct sunlight.The temperature should not be too high.The environmental temperature of winter should not be lower than 8 degrees Celsius.Like cold and cold climate, the farming experience of the garden is the most ideal of 18-24 degrees.Watering should be watered after the surface soil is dry.If the light is insufficient, the stems and leaves are easy to cover the fruit.From the end of spring to the cooked time, it is best to put it in a place where the sun is sufficient and can block the wind and rain.
Distribution
Central and southern Taiwan, the Philippines, Australia, etc.
Cultivation technology
1. Soil selection
Pearl oranges like the soil are moist and avoid waterlogging. The soil ratio is imported by imported peat: perlite: vermiculite = 1: 1: 1 or rot leaf soil: charcoal powder: perlite: clean river sand: rural soil = 1: 0.3: 0.5: 0.5: 1 or rot leaf soil: Pastoral soil: clean river sand = 1: 1: 1 can be paved around to ensure the humidity of air humidity in the small environment. When planting, a small amount of volcanic stones are paved at the bottom to prevent the bottom of the water from the bottom of the water and breathability.insufficient.
2,LightPhoto and temperature
The growth of pearl orange requires a certain degree of light to resist semi -yin, but to avoid strong sunlight directly illuminated.During the breeding process, the plants of pearl orange should be placed under the bright scattered light, especially in summer, to shade, but it cannot be too shade, which will affect flowering and results.
The cold resistance capacity of pearl orange is strong. The suitable temperature for growth is between 10 C and 20 C. It can resist low temperature below -10 C in winter, but the temperature of wintering should be kept above 5 C.
3. Watering and fertilization
Pearl Orange likes a slightly humid growth environment. In summer, the pot soil needs to be kept moist, and it needs to be slightly dry in winter.Watering should be appropriate and ensure that watering should not be poured to the leaves or fruits, so as not to rot the plant.You can use the potting method or spray method.Fertilization should also be moderate, and Fertilizer is required every 1-2 weeks.
4,Breeding method
Division:Take the autumn division as the best period, take out the whole plant, divide it according to the shape of your own needs, gradually separate the root, re -plant it, and pay attention to moisturizing after planting. Due to the damage of the root, use aspirin when planting.The solution (aspirin enteric tablet with a piece of water 500ml): Glucose water (0.1%glucose water) = 1: 1 mix and mix it for mixing soil, mix until the soil is moist and not wet.There is no need to water for 1 to 2 weeks. Spray water once a day once a day. The weak light is maintained for 5 to 7 days, and then gradually replenished the light.
sowing:Pearl oranges can be sowed and reproduced. It is carried out from February to March and can also be divided into division and in August.Take the seeds with cooked fruit, remove the peel, dry it slightly, and then use an appropriate amount of root powder to soak the seedlings, cover it lightly on the surface of the soil, cover the peat 1 mm or laid a thin layer of fresh water moss., Then keep the temperature from 10-15 C for moisturizing and cultivation, and buds can grow in 2 to 3 weeks.
Group training:In recent years, a new method of breeding is selected. It can be cultivated with chemical agents such as medium and agonists. It can be used in large quantities for production. The product shape is relatively uniform, neat, and large breeding.
Bloom
When the pearl orange is blooming, it needs to be artificially pollinated so that the results of pearl orange can be more.
Pest
Sometimes pearl orange is infected with gray mold, and you need to pay attention to controlling the humidity of the growth environment.
precautions for pearl orange breeding
1. Avoid strong light exposure
The growth of pearl orange requires a certain amount of light to resist half yin, but to avoid strong sunlight directly illuminated.During the breeding process, the plants of pearl orange should be placed under the bright scattered light, especially in summer, to shade, but it cannot be too shade, which will affect flowering and results.
2. Pay attention to keep the pot soil properly humid and water with the "Basin Dafa".
Watering the basin method to avoid water falling on the leaves, causing plant rot.Once every 5-8 days, according to the location of the placement, the choice is to see the fruit and the edge leaves when there are wilting, but do not accumulate water.In the case of drying high temperature, you can use the spray of a watering pot to increase the humidity.The pot soil in summer is moist, and it is slightly dry in winter.After the fruit is generated, it is necessary to ensure that there is no water on the plant, otherwise the fruit is prone to rot.
3,Keep light and moderate ventilation
Pearl Orange likes a cold and humid environment, is not drought and high temperature, and avoids strong light exposure.I like bright scattered light, such as insufficient light, leaf and leaves, and loses the value of ornamental.The most suitable growth temperature is 10 ~ 18 C, and the low temperature below -10 C can be resistant in winter, but the temperature of the winter should be kept above 5 C.Pay attention to maintaining long -term ventilation and placed in a place that can block the wind and rain, otherwise it is difficult to appreciate its glamorous fruits.
