  [Classification] bromeliads, pineapples are
  Towers of flowers, leaves leathery; green and glossy, arranged in a ro_set_te, dignified and beautiful; leaf base of mutual cohesion, the plants into the center of the cylindrical inner can be filled with water without leakage, and therefore the name of the flower towers. September each year, the barrel will be withdrawn from the leaves of the red torch-shaped inflorescence, needle-like leaves contrast, doubly lovely, is both beautiful mosaic indoor ornamental flowers.
  Flower towers origin in South American rainforests. Bromeliads are epiphytes, in origin born in the trunk, on the rocks, plants Centre Jane Department impoundment use available days of drought. Flower towers hi warm and humid climate and half shade environment, optimum growth temperature of 25 ℃, not cold, winter temperature of not lower than 10 ℃ appropriate. Hi-drained sandy soil acidity.
  Potted flower towers generally difficult to seed, so multi-Ramet method for breeding. Annually after flowering, the plants will germinate Mongolian branch base, until after the robust mature Huanpen when it cut off in the spring, planting to leaf mold and sand half of the matrix, to maintain a high temperature and humidity, 20 days so you can take root.
  Epiphytes towers flowers, roots less, when potted plants, pots should not be large, nor depth, in order to be able to have a certain gap planted around the plant to cultivate 2 copies available humus soil, sand or garden soil 1 part 1 , 1 part peat, plus a small amount of superphosphate and compost preparation. Growing management is relatively simple. Flowers do not like direct light towers, the strong summer sun will make it yellow leaves. And to put a bright light scattering at the Health Department grow better. Acceptable spring evening light, around noon, and you want to shade in summer.
  Tower of peanut Flourish need more water, but they can not be too wet basin. In addition to the usual watering to keep the soil moist, the plants in the center of the cylinder can be filled with water. Winter watering less, in the center of the cylinder and do not add a lot of water to keep moist; usually to spray around the plants regularly to maintain high humidity, and often with a soft cloth to scrub foliage to keep the foliage clean, Bright. Tower spend less demanding fertilizer, applied once a month cake water or some of the points Jiasa bone meal, chicken bake and so can spend itself towers epiphytic features, easy hydroponics, plus a small amount of fertilizer in the water
  Or fertilizers chip can meet the plant needs. Winter sunny place to put and keep the temperature around 10 degrees; if more than 20 ℃, the trees are not dormant, will affect growth in the coming year.
  How to make mosaic spend two towers Yan?
  The flowers are famous towers indoor flowers, leaves Dramas potted flowers. It leaves green, shiny, drawn from the foliage when flowering in the center tube of bright red inflorescence columnar, very bright. Potted flower towers, the choice of leaf mold, moss and garden soil (or sand) sifted potting mix, plus a small amount of bone meal as basal fertilizer. Growing season to save every two weeks or so thin liquid fertilizer applied once, 1-2 times before flowering Adding 0.2% potassium dihydrogen phosphate, the color is more beautiful. Flowering, after flowering and dormancy should stop fertilizing. Tubular flowers commonly squamous tower water tower portion of the hair to absorb moisture, so the leaves during the growing needs of the barrel filled with water, dry the leaves lack luster and gradually turn yellow. But pay attention to prevent water stank barrel, usually every two weeks or so you want to dump a flower pot, so Chen water out, then add fresh water. How much the usual irrigation basin surface exposed to dry subject, need watering when dry. Summer and dry season to regular water, in order to maintain a high air humidity. Avoid water basin, or easily cause rot caused by strains of death. Winter plants enter dormancy, slow life activities. You should monarchy watering, keep slightly moist leaves the bottom of the barrel is appropriate. Flower towers like half shade environment, family training on the interior with bright places scattered light that is able to give birth is good. In case of direct light, easy to make the leaves turn yellow, the impact of ornamental value. Optimum growth temperature is 20 ℃ -28 ℃, when summer temperatures exceed 30 ℃, ventilation and cooling work to do. Winter need to maintain optimum temperature between 10 ℃ -15 ℃, this time should be placed in pots near the south window conservation. Using soilless cultivation flower towers are better growth and development.
  Name: flower towers scientific name: billbergia pyramidalis
  Alias: red pen pineapple, pineapple red algae, sinks Bromeliads are: bromeliads towers genus
  Category: evergreen perennial herb
  Morphology
  Evergreen perennial herb. Stems very short. Leaves broadly lanceolate, acute, finely serrated edge, hard leathery, bright green, thick cuticle surface and absorption scales. From the roots of the rotary blades stacked like clusters, base a ro_set_te, the center has a cylindrical shape. Leaves the barrel can hold water without leakage, the shape of towers, so the name "flower towers." Spikes erect, higher foliage, pink bracts, corolla scarlet petals revolute, with purple edges. Than in winter and spring flowering.
  Tower Torch Tower floral varieties have flowers (var.concolor), similar to the towers of flowers, but the petals, bracts are red. Striped water tower flower (var.strata), there are cream and even green vertical stripes on the leaves. US-leaf flower towers (b.sanderiana), about 20 storeyed leaves, about 25 cm and a width of 6 cm, margin growth of about 1 cm dense black spiny teeth. Scapes slender smooth the top with raw sparse panicles, flower is about 7 cm. Petals green, blue tip, there are blue spots on the calyx.
  Geographic distribution
  Origin of tropical America, epiphytic trees in tropical forests or humus. Likes the warm and humid and sunny environment, requiring air humidity, avoid direct glare, optimum growth temperature is 20 ~ 28 ℃, requires loose soil, well drained slightly acidic soil.
  Growth habit
  Hi warm, moist, half shade environment. Not cold. Slightly drought. The soil is less demanding, containing humus-rich, well-drained slightly acidic breathable sandy loam is good, avoid calcareous soil.
  Multiplication
  Tiller method usually breed in spring combined Huanpen. Can give birth to a tower base to spend a few lines sprout buds. Let it grow to about 10 cm, with a sharp knife to separate the sub-buds with the mother plant, and stripped off the lower leaves flattened base. That is _insert_ed into the incision to be a little dry and coarse leaf mold half of the basin, put a plastic bag, placed in less shaded and keep the temperature around 25 ℃, for 2 to 3 weeks to take root, gradually increasing light after rooting .
  Ornamental Applications
  Green leaves and shiny, tufted into a ro_set_te, leaf canister can hold water without leakage, columnar drawn from around the National verdant leaves the barrel of red inflorescence. Blooming flowers are dotted tower balcony, hall room to share. Also suitable for garden, rockery, pool and other places decoration.
  Maintenance and pests
  Cultivation and management: flower towers like half shade environment. Greenhouse spring, summer and autumn are required to cover 30% to 50% of the midday sun, the winter without shading; family culture on the interior with bright places scattered light that is able to grow well in winter should at least ensure that more than four hours of direct sunlight . North China summer sun is strong, can not be open-air cultivation, otherwise the leaves turn yellow, appear sunburn.
  Optimum growth temperature is 20 ~ 28 ℃, the summer if the temperature exceeded 30 ℃, ventilation and cooling work to do, otherwise flowering scarce. Not cold, winter temperature should be 10 ~ 15 ℃. At this point it is best placed in the vicinity of the south window maintenance, making it more common in some sunshine to facilitate thrive. Temperature is too low, flowering is often delayed. If the room temperature is higher than during the winter 20 ℃, can affect plants fully dormant, consume a lot of nutrients in the body, resulting in adverse effects on growth and flowering the following year will be.
  Flower towers like moist during the growing season (North China of 3 to 10 months), need regular watering basin to the roots to keep the soil moist. Summer and should be regularly spray the dry season to maintain high air humidity. But avoid water basin, or easily cause rot caused by plant death. Squamous tubular towers flower water tower by the Ministry of wool absorbs moisture, so attention should be paid to irrigation during the growing season often leaves the barrel, dry the leaves gradually turn yellow and lack luster, but pay attention to prevent water stank barrel, Usually about every 7 to 10 days once the pots dumped, so Chen then add fresh water flowing out. Winter dormancy, during which reduces indoor air humidity, less watering, keeping a little dry as well.
  The growing season is about saving applied once every two weeks or thin liquid fertilizer compound fertilizer maturity, before flowering Adding 1 or 2 times 0.2% potassium dihydrogen phosphate, the color of the flowers can be more eye-catching red. Flowering, after flowering and dormancy should stop fertilizing.
  Because of its less developed root system, so the cultivation pots should not be too large to just be able to accommodate a slight gap plants as well. Potted usually loose, well-drained humus or peat plus a small amount of sand and soil cultivation basal dubbed, can also be used bark pieces, moss, fern roots as potted matrix. While the lower basin 1/4 to 1/3 filled with bark, slag, crushed bricks and other particulate matter, in order to facilitate ventilation and drainage.
  Huanpen once a year, in early spring, after flowering. Huanpen remove old flowers have opened plants, only planted sprout new plants next year so as to ensure robust growth, plant type appearance.
  Pest
  There are leaf spot and viral disease hazards. Leaf spot with 50% thiophanate WP 1000 times spraying, viral disease with 20% hydrochloric acid morpholine double tiller buds copper WP 500 times spraying.
