France, the Dutch botanist who Baptista Los hype pocketbook flower provider, has praised the author he is a

in a variety of herbaceous flowers, the pocketbook for better environmental conditions for cultivation, Optimum growth temperature is 13 ~ 17 ℃ to 25 ℃, such as higher than the negative flowering. It also often requires long-day light, conceived in the flower buds during the 16 day requirement to 18 hours of light. If the greenhouse built on the fluorescent lamp, lighting the night to give the natural growth and development is more, much more flowers bloom is also large. Flowering will be delayed if insufficient light.

pocketbook cultivation methods similar to African violets, also need to plant with loose material and a thin top-dressing. Watering can sprinkle the wet leaves, it will be very easy to cause decay. If the growth environment is not good, or subjected to virus infection, sometimes fell ill suddenly quenched, it required 65% in the seedling stage zinc 50O Dyson many times the solution injection to prevent the breeding of disease. Pockets of time spent there first, after flowering, often the first to open will be the first wilt, wither after the open after. When the auditorium for clear, we should pay attention to timely remove the dead flowers, so as not to affect the viewing.

In addition there are many fixed hybrid F1 generation.

growth habit

likes the cool, moist, airy climate and environment, all heat, avoid cold, hi light, but the planting date of application need to avoid exposure Xiaji Lie, need shade, in the 7 ~ 15C conditions, growing well. Demanding on the soil, sandy soil rich in humus as well, avoid wet soil, with good ventilation, drainage conditions to slightly acidic soil is good. l5C more vegetative growth, lOC 4 to 6 weeks after less room to flower buds.

breeding

generally based seed propagation, a small amount for cutting, planting more than the end of August to early September, when the climate becoming cooler. 6 copies of leaf mold culture soil to 4 parts of sand from the preparation, in the cloth seal, to maintain 13 ~ 15C, a week after emergence, after emergence in time to remove the glass, plastic sheeting, to facilitate ventilation and prevent the fall ill occur. Gradually see the light, the seedling growth robust, at room temperature to maintain 2OC below. When the seedlings grow when sub-basin 2 true leaves.



culture of conservation and conservation pests: flower pot of soil mixed with leaf mold or soil cultivation as well, the first time from the seedling to planting the pots, usually three to pour pots, planting pots diameter of 13 ~ 17cm. Once a week during the growing topdressing fertilizer diluted to maintain higher air humidity, but the basin ground water application should not be too large, the air is too dry to take more water, less water, dry between watering wet room to master the principles of prevent water large rot. Do not allow water pouring fertilizer fertilizer gets on the leaf surface, causing leaf rot. Winter indoor temperature is maintained at 5 ~ 1O. C, light shade to pay attention too. Calceolaria flowers for the long-day plant, so the use of artificial light in the greenhouse to extend the duration of bright sunshine each day, to advance flowering. Calceolaria flower in December to next May flowering. Calceolaria flower poor natural pollination is required artificial pollination, pollination, after removal of the Corolla, Corolla avoid rotten, and enhance the setting rate, 5 to 6 months to mature seeds in the sprouting seeds of fruit has not become brown before cracking, the timely receipt.

Calceolaria flower prone to diseases and pests, planting should take measures to seedling disease prone to breaking down,UGGs, the soil should be sterilized, to allocate strain, or the basin ground a little dry,UGG boots cheap, the air is too dry, the temperature is too high , prone to red spider, aphids, etc., can spray, increase or decrease the air temperature and humidity.
