Fire propagation and cultivation

Burning plant height up to 15 meters, three pinnate leaves, full leaflets, oval, top lobed. The racemes are born on branchlets or old branches and are extremely unique. They are unique to tropical landscapes. The calyx is spathelike, cracking and densely covered. Corolla is an altar, orange to golden yellow, often open on the trunk or old branches, such as a burning flame, named after the fire.

It is an excellent garden landscape tree species for parks, gardens, streets, and scenic spots. It can be planted on lawns, ponds or on main roads as shade trees or street trees. It is also suitable for solitary planting or planting. In addition, its flowers are edible and the trunk is an excellent furniture material.

Breeding method

Because of its flowering in multiple seasons, fire flowers can be harvested in multiple seasons. Therefore, seed propagation is the main method of breeding seedlings. When the pods mature, the skin changes from blue to dark brown. At this time, the harvested fruits are allowed to air dry or dry in a windless place, and the seeds are gently tapped after cracking. The seeds can be picked and broadcast in the appropriate season. When cold, it can be stored until the second spring sowing. As the seeds are small, sowing is generally used and thin soil is used after sowing. Seeds are sown at a temperature of about 25° C. to keep the seed bed moist, typically about 1 week, and the germination rate is 60% to 80%. Seedlings grow for 50 to 60 days. When the shoots are slightly lignified, they can be moved to field cultivation. The gardens can be planted within 1 to 2 years, and can be flowered within 3 to 5 years.

The survival rate of the burned flowers is low. When vegetative propagation is used, the survival rate can be increased by grafting, high-pressure layering, and dwarfing and then used for potting. Plants obtained by vegetative propagation usually flower within 1 to 2 years.

Cultivation Techniques

Burning flowers are produced in tropical areas, which are like high temperature, high humidity and sunny environment. However, they can withstand dry heat and semi-shadow, cold and bogey frost. The optimum temperature for growth is 23 to 30°C, and it can withstand temperatures around 0°C. However, if the temperature is kept at a low temperature of 5 to 6°C for a long time, the shoots will be freeze-dried. In the open cultivation of southern China, other areas can only be potted after dwarfing and moved into the room in winter. Deep soil, medium fertility, well-drained neutral to slightly acidic soil, resistant to salinity. Slow growth on arid, barren soil.

Burning flowers does not like big fertilizers. When planting, sufficient base fertilizer is used. Only one or two compound fertilizers can grow well every year. Potted plants must be treated with less nitrogenous fertilizer, watering control, prevention of madness and frequent pruning and shaping, and plant height control. The resistance to burning flowers is strong and fewer pests and diseases occur.
