morphological character

Medium-sized species, short stems, aerial roots, oblong leaves, about 30 cm long and shiny.

Jin' an Zuman Lv Rong

The top is pointed, leathery and green. The leaves are wide, palm-shaped, thick, pinnately parted and shiny; Petiole is long and thick, aerial roots are extremely developed and thick, hanging down, so it is decorated indoors, elegant and full of tropical rainforest atmosphere. It is a good foliage plant, and now it is widely planted in the central and southern provinces of China. "Con-Go" is cold-resistant and pendulum-resistant, and can be used to cut leaves in potted plants. It is a very popular shade potted foliage plant in the American market. Its leaves are well-proportioned, moderately stretched, dark green and have rigid brightness, and the life of each leaf is as long as 30 months.

Ecological habit

Golden diamond is a foliage plant and does not bloom.

Jin' an Zuman Lv Rong

Evergreen herb is a perennial evergreen herb of Araceae, which likes warm and humid semi-cloudy environment and is afraid of cold and strong light, and is suitable for growing in sandy loam with rich humus and good drainage. Cold-resistant and anti-swaying, potted and leaf-cutting.

Cultivation management

I like warm and humid semi-cloudy environment, and I am afraid of cold and strong light. The suitable growth temperature is 20℃ ~ 30℃.

Jin' an Zuman Lv Rong

Growth began at about 10℃. The requirements for soil are not strict, and it grows well in sandy loam rich in humus and well drained. Potted plants are mostly mixed with peat and perlite to prepare nutrient soil. It should be placed in a semi-shady place, and direct sunlight should be avoided in summer to avoid burning the leaves. Keep the soil moist all the time during the growing period to avoid being too dry. When the air is dry in summer and autumn, we should also spray water on plants to keep them moist and cool down. Like fertilizer, water it 2 ~ 3 times a month in the prosperous period, so as to avoid partial application of nitrogen fertilizer. Otherwise, the petiole will grow weakly and will not stand upright easily, which will affect the ornamental effect. Reproduction can be accomplished by dividing plants. At present, tissue culture is widely used for mass reproduction.

Golden diamond, also known as the "king of evil spirits", is a shade plant with strong vitality; Absorb all kinds of toxic gases as nutrients (SO2, SO3, NO, etc. ) has the function of purifying air and is suitable for homes, office buildings, hotels, hotels and other places. Golden diamond likes warm and humid semi-cloudy environment, is cold-resistant and light-proof, and is suitable for growing in sandy loam with rich humus and good drainage. Increase the ambient humidity by spraying water on the blades and the ground frequently, and try to keep a ventilated, warm and semi-cloudy environment. In addition, it is best to put the gold diamond away from the heating and air conditioning outlets, because the air in these places is too dry and the water evaporates quickly, which is easy to cause the leaves to dry up.

While doing this, we should also pay attention to the management of fertilizer and water on weekdays. During the diamond growing period from May to September, water 1-2 times a month, and the number and dosage should not be too much, otherwise the petiole will be slender and weak, and it will not be easy to stand upright, which will affect the ornamental effect. Fertilize as little as possible in other seasons. Water should be flexible, keep the soil moist in spring, summer and dry season, and alternate dry and wet in autumn and winter.

There will be some brownish red roots at the roots of well-cultivated golden diamonds, which will soon grow new buds and can be divided into pots in time. Be careful in the process of dividing pots, so as not to hurt the taproot. The separated seedlings were planted in loose and fertile sand and then placed in a semi-cool place indoors. Pay attention to frequent water spraying to prevent seedlings from wilting, and gradually reduce the number of water spraying after one week. About half a month, the seedlings can almost survive and can be maintained normally.

breeding method

The propagation methods of golden diamond (velvet) are mostly cutting, sowing and branching.

Jin' an Zuman Lv Rong

It is best to use the pruning method at home, and the operation is relatively simple. When cutting propagation, it is advisable to take May to September, cut off the stems with vigorous growth and long branches, directly insert them into clean river sand and put them in a semi-shady place, maintain a high air humidity, and take root in 20-25 days at a temperature of about 25℃. When ramet propagation needs to produce small plants at the base of old plants, it can be combined with changing soil and pots, and the small plants should be carefully separated from the old plants so as not to hurt the old plants or roots as much as possible. Also, lateral plants can be picked in advance, which can not only dwarf the plants, but also produce more lateral plants. When the new lateral plants grow to about 15 cm, the aerial roots can be cut and replanted.

maintenance management

temperature

The temperature should be kept at about 20℃ and not lower than 65438 00℃, and heating should be avoided.

Jin' an Zuman Lv Rong

Air conditioning and cold air blowing. The air humidity should be kept between 50% and 75%, which is lower than 50% of the dry edge of yellow leaves. Water spraying and sprinkling are often used to increase air humidity.

illuminate

I like light and avoid strong direct light. It is best to keep the growing environment in semi-shade or scattered light, and I can't keep it in a cool environment for a long time, otherwise the leaves will turn yellow easily.

water

It is best to water the surface of basin soil when it is dry, and it can be kept moist during the high temperature period in summer. In winter, if the ambient temperature is lower than 15℃, it is necessary to water alternately.

Fertilize soil or land

Fertilization is based on the principle of thin fertilizer and diligent application, with nitrogen fertilizer as the main factor.

Eliminate pests and diseases

Gold diamond disease is mainly a physiological disease caused by maintenance or environmental discomfort. Generally, it can be prevented by good maintenance management, and it can be prevented by spraying carbendazim and chlorothalonil when the disease occurs. Insect pests are mainly red spiders, which are usually caused by air drying. It can be effectively prevented by spraying water and wiping the blades frequently. When there are pests, it is necessary to spray special pesticides, such as dicofol.

Alocasia. It belongs to the genus Camptotheca of Araceae, also known as Golden Diamond and Camptotheca acuminata. It is a popular indoor foliage plant at present. Its leaves are dark green, the leaves are just bright, the petiole is long and thick, and it is decorated indoors, generous and elegant, full of tropical rainforest atmosphere. Golden diamond vine green velvet can also absorb various toxic gases, such as sulfur dioxide, sulfur trioxide, nitric oxide and so on. , and plays a role in purifying the air, so it is called the "king of evil spirits" and is widely used in homes, office buildings, hotels, hotels and other places.

Golden diamond vine green velvet likes warm, humid and semi-cloudy environment, and is afraid of cold and strong light. Its suitable growth temperature is 20℃ ~ 30℃, and the requirements for soil are not strict. Sandy loam with rich humus and good drainage is the best. Potted plants are mostly mixed with peat and perlite to prepare nutrient soil, and their propagation methods are mostly cutting and branching.

Meconopsis prostrate cultivated by cutting and rameting in Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden Economic Plant Experimental Extension Station of China Academy of Sciences is growing well, without pests and diseases, and its potted seedlings will be used for some meeting rooms and office furnishings in the park. The technicians on the station will further expand the propagation of the green velvet of the golden diamond vine and make a good resource reserve for putting it into the market.
