The Welcoming Pine has the profound meaning of symbolizing friendship and peace. Due to its extremely high ornamental value and magnificent momentum, it is widely transplanted as a potted plant and becomes a decoration in homes and offices. It not only beautifies the interior environment, but also reflects the owner's elegant taste, so it is very popular. So how can we grow the Welcoming Pine so that it grows vigorously?

1. Soil selection

Suitable soil is essential for plant growth, as it directly affects the luxuriance of the plants. The Welcoming Pine has relatively loose requirements for soil, but it is recommended to use fertile soil with good air permeability and slight acidity. Since the Welcoming Pine is tolerant to barrenness, choosing fertile soil can reduce the frequency of early fertilization.

2. Placement environment

The Welcoming Pine likes light and adapts to mild, cool and humid climatic conditions. It should avoid high temperatures and dry environments. It should not be exposed to direct sunlight in the summer. It can be placed outdoors in a sunny and sheltered place in the winter. When planting in a shallow pot, the pot can be buried in the soil for easy winter management.

3. Watering tips

During the peak growth period, the soil of the Welcoming Pine should be kept slightly dry and attention should be paid to controlling moisture. Keep the soil moist at ordinary times, but avoid waterlogging. The needles should be sprayed with water regularly during the hot season to promote growth.

4. Fertilization strategy

The amount of fertilizer applied to the Welcoming Pine should be moderate. Apply a thin layer of decomposed cake fertilizer water twice every spring. Water the tree the next day after fertilizing to promote absorption. In autumn, fermented cake fertilizer crumbs can be applied again.

5. Pest and disease management

The Welcoming Pine is susceptible to diseases such as pine gall disease and leaf blight, as well as pests such as the Armand pine borer, pine sawfly, Chinese pine caterpillar, and pine tip borer. For diseases, severely infected branches can be cut off and sprayed with 300 times diluted 65% wettable iron ferram or zinc ferram. For insect pests, you can use 1000-1500 times diluted 50% DDT emulsion, 25% acephate emulsifiable concentrate or 300 times diluted 50% carbofuran for spraying. For pine sawflies, you can use 1000-1500 times diluted trichlorfon or malathion for prevention and control.
