Potting wisteria bonsai: It is better to plant wisteria before it leaves in February or March in spring. The potting soil is made of fertile, well-drained leaf humus and garden soil. Deep purple sand pots can be selected for potting, and their shapes are square, rectangular, round and oval.
Modeling of wisteria bonsai: The modeling of wisteria bonsai is mainly based on pruning, supplemented by coiling, in order to fully express its simple natural form. The branches should be staggered up and down to avoid monotony, and the layers should be less rather than more. The forms of wisteria bonsai include curved trunk style or oblique trunk style, hanging branch style and cliff style, and can also be made into stone-attached style.
Maintenance of wisteria bonsai:
Watering: It is necessary to master the principle of not watering when it is not dry, and watering thoroughly when it is watered. The potting soil is only wet and not dry, which is not conducive to flowering. In August, during the flower bud differentiation period, water should be appropriately withheld. Normal watering can be done in September. Water less after the leaves fall in late autumn.
Fertilization: Thin fertilizers are frequently applied, which is an important measure for luxuriant flowers and leaves. During the growing season, thin cake fertilizers can be applied once every half a month in combination with watering, until fertilization is stopped in July-August. Fertilization continues in September, but the frequency and concentration should be appropriately reduced. Before flowering, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers can be appropriately applied.
Pruning: When tender buds grow in spring, dense buds should be removed appropriately. When new branches grow to more than 20 cm, the overlong parts can be cut off. Usually, overgrown branches, diseased branches and weak branches should be cut off at any time. Pruning is also required during the dormant period. In September, old leaves tend to droop, so old leaves can be removed to promote the sprouting of new leaves and extend the viewing period.
