Huo Sining thought in her heart, and couldn't help but want to look more closely, so she unconsciously took a few steps closer to the bonsai. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Huh?"

After a few closer glances, Huo Sining was surprised to find that her previous judgment was completely wrong.

There are no grafted seams on the main trunk of this golden cinnamon!

Osmanthus is not cold and drought resistant, and it is difficult to feed as a bonsai, so the general cinnamon bonsai usually chooses to be grafted with rootstocks.

Usually cinnamon grafting mostly uses privet, wax or tassels, and the scion and rootstock with similar branch thickness are selected when grafting.

Cut a fusiform incision at the scion part of the golden cinnamon, and cut an incision consistent with the size of the scion at the same height of the rootstock, and then put the two incisions together to make the two clumbs dense to complete the grafting project.

After successful grafting, the wound heals, leaving a graft seam at the grafting joint.

However, because rootstock and scion are not the same variety, it is not possible to achieve 100% fusion.

No matter how powerful the grafter is, it is impossible to be seamless, even if the rootstock and scion of the same variety are used, it is impossible for the grafted flowers and trees not to leave a mark.

In addition to the grafting method, there are also sowing methods and cuttings methods.

However, the cuttings of osmanthus shoots do not have an obvious taproot after being buried in the soil, but are prone to grow adventitious roots everywhere.

The golden cinnamon in front of me is a distinct rhizome, then there is only one possibility, this old golden cinnamon is not a grafted or cutting, but a native golden cinnamon.

"It turned out to be a native golden cinnamon ......"

Seeing this golden cinnamon variety clearly, Huo Sining couldn't help but gasp lightly.

Because the native cinnamon is born by seed propagation, the growth rate is much slower than that of cuttings and grafting, and the seedlings bloom late, and they can only bloom after more than ten years of planting.

Looking at the appearance of this golden cinnamon in front of me, it is at least more than 50 years old.

This realization shocked Huo Sining, just now she judged the value of this golden cinnamon according to the normal rootstock grafted golden cinnamon price.

But if it is a native plant, the price is several times higher.

The general rootstock grafted with cinnamon is only three or five years old.

The osmanthus grafted with rootstock is more likely to survive than the native osmanthus with cold and frost resistance, and the grafted varieties have a more important advantage than the native osmanthus, that is, the rootstock used in the grafting of golden osmanthus is easier to shape.

Whether it's privet, wax or tassel, these grafted varieties are extremely vigorous plants that can survive even if the rhizome is bent at will during the seedling stage.

It is precisely because of this characteristic that the grafted osmanthus claw-like root shape is very easy to shape, and the main stem can be twisted and coiled into any shape at will.

Some flower growers even deliberately make the trunk into simple Chinese characters, flowers and birds as gimmicks to attract attention.

It is precisely because of the grafted cinnamon as a contrast that the original cinnamon is even more rare.

The native plant itself is extremely difficult to raise, and the growth rate is slow, and it is not easy to have the size of the old golden cinnamon tree in front of you.

To judge the quality of a bonsai plant, you generally need to start from four points: tree age, roots, tree shape and rarity.

The age of the tree is easy to understand, and the price of an old stump that is tens or hundreds of years old is of course much more valuable than that of an ordinary flower bonsai of three or five years;

Needless to say, the first thing to look at in the value judgment of most bonsai is the old root, and the root type plays a pivotal role in the value of bonsai.

The cutting control of the tree shape is the most exquisite, the overall shape of bonsai flowers and trees directly affects the beauty and value of bonsai, if the shape of a bonsai is not good-looking, even if it is not a good bonsai.

In addition to the shape of the rhizome, the shape of the canopy and the details of the bonsai are very particular.

As a flower grower, when pruning flower bonsai, when sending new branches, there is a rule to cut off which ones are left behind, and there is a little fork in the middle, and a pot of flowers and trees that have been carefully cultivated for many years may be destroyed.

As long as the rarity is concerned, it refers not only to the plant itself, but also to the overall shape of the pot and the meaning behind it.

There is no shortage of rare products in flowers like orchids, and variant orchids can often be sold for millions of sky-high prices, this is because the vast majority of flower farmers have a hunting mentality, and rare things are expensive, and this sentence is applicable no matter what circle it is.

Of course, the pot of native old golden cinnamon in front of him can also be regarded as a rare product.

Whether it is from the age, roots or shape of the tree is very perfect, the root shape of this old golden cinnamon is like a dragon's five claws, if it is a rootstock grafted or cuttings rhizome, it is naturally very common.

But in the words of the original old Jin Gui, this kind of dragon claw root with a trunk diameter of eight or nine centimeters can only be described as a divine skill.

With this judgment in her heart, Huo Sining couldn't help but be secretly shocked in her heart, she really looked away before, the golden cinnamon in front of her, not to mention 50,000, is 200,000, and someone wants it.

Just thinking about it, the two masters had already moved Lao Jingui out of the restaurant.

Huo Sining felt strange and couldn't help but go out, but saw that the two staff members threw the pot of golden cinnamon into the corner of the corridor at the door, and actually came back with such a loud bang.

Huo Sining was taken aback, Lao Jin Gui was noble, and he was not easy to raise.

At this time, it is summer, the noon sun is the most vicious time, the old golden cinnamon is placed under the corridor to expose the sun, isn't this to put this pot of old golden cinnamon to death?

Besides, this cinnamon is worth a lot of money, so if it is thrown outside the door, I am afraid that no one will find out if it is moved away by someone who knows the goods, right?

Just thinking about it, Qin Shaoyou and Yan Xuesong also walked out of the restaurant, Huo Sining was puzzled, and couldn't help but step forward and ask, "Boss Zhao, did you raise this pot of old golden cinnamon?"

Seeing that Huo Sining actually knew that this was Lao Jin Gui, Zhao Guotian was a little surprised, and nodded with a smile: "That Jin Gui was raised by me, and Miss Huo also has research on Jin Gui?"

Huo Sining shook his head: "I can't talk about research, but I have only recently begun to learn about flower cultivation." In front of Elder Yan, a rookie like me doesn't dare to get an axe. ”

Zhao Guotian glanced at Yan Xuesong and sighed: "You're right, we are all novices in front of him. But even if he is a master, he can't save my old golden cinnamon. ”

Huo Sining was stunned when he heard this, and glanced at the old golden cinnamon that was being exposed to the sun, and his face showed doubt:

"Boss Zhao, I read the book that Lao Jingui is afraid of drought and high temperatures, it's noon, and your flowers are here......"

Huo Sining said this to prove that she is indeed a novice, if the old connoisseur can see at a glance that this golden cinnamon is already a dead plant, but in the eyes of the novice, he can only see the faint fragrance of green leaves. (To be continued.) )
