 九重葛小贴士和知识

关于这种诱人的木质藤本/灌木,有一些有趣的小故事。 1768 年,法国探险家路易-安托万-德-布干维尔(Louis Antoine de Bougainville)的探险队在南美洲停靠时,以他的环球航行命名了这种植物。 从那时起,这些绚丽(但多刺!)的开花植物就成为无霜气候条件下的观赏宠儿(目前有 300 多个品种)。我甚至还在康涅狄格州费尔菲尔德的一家苗圃里看到过这种植物出售--在那里绝对是一种温室植物!它们不仅被用作藤本植物,还被用作地被植物、容器、凉棚、围栏和墙壁以及树篱(这让我很困惑,因为如果修剪得太厉害,它们的颜色就会变淡)。

与一品红一样,苞片(植物的叶状部分)而非花朵(花朵是苞片中央一朵不起眼的白色或黄色小花)才是它们绚丽色调的来源。 你可以选择红色、紫色、黄色、橙色、粉色或白色的花朵。 大多数品种的苞片是单瓣的,但也有一些是双瓣的。 还有几个品种我们的最爱之一 "火炬之光 "与众不同--苞片全部长在茎的末端,开花时就像提基火炬一样闪闪发光。

目前,装饰 Joy-Us 总部的九重葛花开得正盛。 以下是我的一些养护九重葛花的小窍门(我作为苗圃人员和专业园艺师的心得):

把九重葛从苗圃带回家后,在种植前不要把它从花盆里拿出来。 九重葛不喜欢根部受到干扰(但谁会喜欢呢? 相反,要在塑料花盆的侧面和底部开一个大口子,这样根部就可以逃出来生长。

将其种植在阳光充足的地方(毕竟,你想要的是绚丽的色彩!)。

它们喜欢壤土、沙土和干燥的土壤,因此要种植在排水良好的地方。

不要给它们浇太多水:这不仅可能导致它们腐烂,而且会促进绿色生长而不是开花。

请记住,它们不是依附性藤蔓,因此需要支撑和附着。 我们的一株藤蔓之所以能横跨我们一栋楼的宽阔门廊生长,就是因为有一个放置得当的金属棚架。 你可以使用钩子、绑带等任何东西。 只要不断帮助它们,它们就会出其不意地疯长!

花朵可能很娇嫩(实际上是苞片,而不是花朵,才是颜色的来源),但刺却很凶猛,所以修剪时要小心(戴手套)。 我看起来就像刚从狮子笼子里走出来,和我们的剪刀手爱德华(Edward Scissorhands)玩了一回--最好不要穿比基尼!

很多手册都会告诉你要给它们施肥,但我没有,我们的花长得像豆茎,而且开了很多很多的花。

我对这种植物有点爱恨交加,但这也是我对它感兴趣的原因。 当苞片枯萎时,它们就会掉落下来 集体 如果不及时修剪,这些树叶就会覆盖整个区域。

蜂鸟和蝴蝶喜欢它们,我们也是!

请慢用
