  Northerners called crape myrtle tree as a "monkey thorn off," said the tree itself is slippery, the monkeys were not climb. It's valuable is that no bark. Suddenly, the world's Arcadia into several trees is no leather? Young crape myrtle tree, year after year students epidermis, year after year on their own loss, skin off after the tree trunks look fresh and smooth. The crape myrtle old tree, the tree itself does not revive the skin, tendons and very exposed. Ying slippery smooth.
  Myrtle also has a drug effect, Li Shi Zhen in the "Compendium of Materia Medica" in the discourse, its leather, wood, flowers have been promoting blood circulation, pain, swelling, detoxification. Seeds can be produced pesticides to kill pests have the effect of flooding. Pullorum rule leaves, flowers governance postpartum vaginal bleeding more than, children rotten head Taidu, carbuncle swollen sore cure can be described as whole body is a treasure.

Cultivation methods
  Crape myrtle in the growth stage vulnerable to aphids, scale insect, slug and leaf roller damage, if any occur, can be used dimethoate EC 1000 times Pensha scale insect and aphids, with 80% of the dichlorvos EC 1500 times Pensha flavescens and leaf roller .
  1. Seed propagation may be a large number of seedlings robust and neat. November to December to collect mature seeds, remove the peel, slightly dry seeds, into a container dried. The following year in March in the sandy loam soil in seedbed sowing or sow up banner wide, covers a layer of fine coke ash to not see the seed for the degree, the straw mulching. Germination unearthed more than 10 days, timely expose grass, when seedlings of 2 pairs of leaves after the rain may choose thinning; seedlings weeded thin 6-July topdressing fertilizer 2-3 times, summer irrigation and drought, the year-end height about 40-50 cm, the year of robust growth can blossom, should be cut off in time, grew up in the following year the vernal equinox transplanting.
  Softwood cuttings in the 7 to 8 months with strong growth of new shoots at this time, the most dynamic. Select semi-lignified branches, cut into 8 ~ lOcm long cuttings, 2-3 to stay top of the leaf. Cutting depth is 3 ~ 4cm. After the irrigation permeable plug, and take the shade shade, generally about 20 days can take root, will remove the film to retain shade net, and then timely watering, then branches can grow up to 60-80 cm, the survival rate of very good .
  Cultivation and Management:
  Comparison of survival after extensive plant management, Lagerstroemia of robust, easy cultivation, on the soil loose, but planted in deep fertile sandy loam grow best. Likes the light, should be planted in sunny lee Department or the South wall in the courtyard, light enough not only to spend less or non-flowering plants, even weak growth, branch and small tenuifolia. Lagerstroemia indica than the cold, but the seedlings of cold insulation should be prepared to work more than three years of adult students are not insulation. Lagerstroemia drought, waterlogging afraid, germinating in the spring each year before and after the autumn leaves turning green water and pour cold water first, but in peacetime, such as drought, water is not generally in the drought when the water poured l ~ 3 times, the rainy season good drainage, to prevent water large rot. Fall should not be watered. After the leaves in the winter and spring each year before germinating fertilizer, such as the application of human waste, or sesame paste residue is better, make plants grow strong in the coming year, to spend large Seyan. In order to Myrtle flower prosperity flourished in the dormancy response to the pruning. By Myrtle inflorescence branches at the top of the new year, so pruning should be re-cut annual retraction of branches, so that nutrient concentration, hair sticks robust, to leggy branches, dry twigs, drooping branches, insect pest branches, thin branches and endogenous branches cut off, in time to plant young trees should be the backbone of the lower lateral branches cut off, so that the upper trunk to get sufficient nutrients, to form a good canopy.
  Myrtle extensive cultivation and management, but cut off dead branches promptly, worms sticks, and burned. To extend the flowering period, should have held a timely cut flower branches, so that re-sprout, grow the next round of squid. In order to stem Casuarina, you can cut a lot of squid, concentrated nutrition training the trunk. Practice has proved that: properly managed, crape myrtle can be pruned several times a year through its flowering times, up to 100? 120 days.
  Layering of the time normally each year in November to next February. First of all, good nursery in the whole ground by 40 cm row spacing, open from 20 to 30 cm deep trench, trench Application at 2-3 cm of cow manure or horse manure so base fertilizer. Combined with winter pruning, selecting good varieties, flowers large Seyan, pest-free mother plants healthy plants do, to take development to enrich the annual or biennial sticks required diameter is 1-4 cm, the length limitation, the 清水中浸泡 2 hours later, buried along gully slope, and then casing practical roots, along the upper groove overwhelming, casing from 10 to 15 cm thick, and poured a permeable, cover tightly with plastic film temperature moisture, the Gallant thatch layer 2 to 3 layers antifreeze, sunny weather event can be thrown off grass thatch warming during the day, evening back cover. So treated, the general can bud growth in mid-March, in April you can see any buds above ground, then you can back a small plastic greenhouse with plastic film covering, remove the grass thatch. If the tent is air temperature over 30 ℃, cooling. From mid-March should be every 20 days uncovers the earth along a ditch, a total of 3 to 4 times, so that the height of seedlings from the base into a 10 cm high ridge, led a large number of adventitious roots produced. By the end of May to remove plastic greenhouse, seedlings sprouting conditions under sub-section open, each independent of the seedlings sprout Serve, and you should trigger collateral topping and dressing manure, such as water or urea water thin cake once, re-Shun ditch with earth and promote growth. After re-dressing 3 to 4 times, if there bud thinning out in time, the general then you can become a crown full, lush plants, seedlings after the autumn elections will bring rain from the soil to avoid injury of capillary roots, shift adequate sunlight and fertilizer to local planting, fertilizer should be controlled after transplant, and enhance its adaptability. By comparison, in the same condition, the method has been applied breeding of crape myrtle seedlings, not only developed root system, high survival rate after transplantation, but also in the crown so much better than other shoots. Through observation, many vines can also use this method in this class of plant breeding, such as wisteria, Peak, forsythia, etc..

Bonsai production
  ① seed propagation: 10 November ear clipping mature, dry grated, whichever seeds dried, sown in March the following year (no germination process), sowing and covered with fine mud in order to not see the seed for the degree of then covered with straw or thatch. 2 to 3 weeks after emergence, grass should be exposed in time, when the seedlings grow two pairs of true leaves, for scaffolding shading, thinning, weeding, cultivation, fertilization, etc., then seedlings can grow to about 40cm high.
  ③ cuttings: cuttings is to produce micro-or small crape myrtle bonsai the usual way, shape faster. Sprout in early spring, before clipping a year twig cutting, then it can flower; or in July, clipped half-lignified hardwood cuttings, 2 to 3 years to flower; or mining the old pile, cut the thick roots for cuttings. General clipping 10cm ~ 15cm long (or under the creative conception and the idea may be cutting branches and cutting the length of branches) of the robust branches into loose soil, the proper shade, keep the soil moist, cutting 2 to 3 months after the new basically good root length, except from 11 am to 3 pm, the sun can give appropriate and can cut a light shoot to promote collateral profusion, to develop a crown; or under the creative producers of conception and idea, cut the ribbon King piles on unnecessary to shoot, the whole was mixed type, with a saw or a sharp knife remove the (King pile shoot length as required), cut to skid, with the access plug. Before cutting with a-based NAA, ABTI No. 2, 100ppm solution dip rooting powder piles King Division 2 hours and treated early after rooting, root system, can improve the survival rate. Use good ventilation and ordinary sandy loam or sandy soil 2, 3 were mixed organic fertilizer as soil cultivation basin plug, will promote rooting powder treated by the King pile directly on the branches basin, compaction, Jiaotou water, shade, King piles with brackets branches, so that stability and keep the soil moist, often to the leaves after a long leaf spray, regular watering after rooting, more than a month you can root, then leaves should be sprayed 0.1% urea, compound liquid fertilizer to promote ground and underground synchronous growth. After a very severe root hair into the normal fertilizer and water management and full sun (ie no shading).
  ④ mountain mining; a. Not recommended in nature reserves in order drawn, before and after of housing, roads and other places beside the excavation crape myrtle tree stump at random, so as not to damage the ecological environment and residents of housing and roads. B. Mining normally in early October to early spring before bud should try to avoid the cold season and the dry wind blowing weather. Mining, first take stem or trunk erosion Qiu Qu singular space, the shape of rocks and other wrinkles reveal the old trailer coupling, after the rise of direct planting pot, or planted in moist fertile, loose soil ventilation training, until root restore growth, leafy branches and then moved into the pot when.
  ② with soil: culture soil rich in organic matter requirements, drainage good loam, leaf mold or sandy soil can be used (tidal sediment) 5 copies of burned soil (fire stupid) 2, briquettes ash 1 mix preparation.
  ① crape myrtle bonsai seedling system may take more than stem (branch) trunk twist legitimate bold. Use of Lagerstroemia rhizosphere sprouting along the trunk were each spiral wound, and fixed with string, to avoid its release. After 2 to 3 years, branches and trunk can heal together and become whole, so that the trunk were significantly enlarged, and appear old plain; also can be combined in different colors of crape myrtle seedlings planted one point, the base tied with a brown silk together, to the trunk each winding, twisting climb together, with the string fixed by 3 to 4 years, the formation of vigorous quaint but sturdy trunk, and rich colors with plants, unique.
  ④ crape myrtle branches more slender, should adopt a "combination of cutting bar" approach, should not be too strong Italian twist, trunk, branches appropriate coil binding, and the remaining branches to trim plastic. Multi-use brown wire coil binding. Wire coil binding easily bruised crape myrtle bark, unfit for use. Pan bar-time multi-election next year in late autumn to early spring.

Maintenance Points
  3. Regular fertilization. Excessive fertilizing potted crape myrtle, easily lead to excessive growth branches, but if Quefei cause thin branches, leaves yellow, the plant grows weak, few or no flowers bloom. Therefore, periodic fertilization, spring and summer growing season need more fertilizer, less facilities after autumn, winter dormancy may from time to enter the facilities. Rain and summer heat of noon, not fertilization, fertilization levels of "thin manure handling facilities" principle, in the beginning of spring to the beginning of autumn fertilizer once every 10 days, each half months after the beginning of autumn top dressing time, stop after the beginning of winter fat.

Pest control
  Myrtle is a vulnerable species by pest landscaping. The Tianshui region, where beautiful scenery and pleasant climate is the best place to grow crape myrtle, but long-term cultivation and management process, we also found many problems. Below, some of the major diseases and insect pests on Myrtle Occurrence and control methods described below.
  1.1 presenting symptoms - powdery mildew is a fungal disease, the main damage leaves and young leaves than old leaves easily be infected. Disease is also harmful to the branch, shoot, flower buds and flower buds. In the early stages, the leaves appear white powder spots, enlarged round or irregular shaped patches faded and covered with a layer of white powder mold layer, the white powdery mildew late into the gray layer. Flowers infested, the surface coating layer of white powder, spike deformity, loss of aesthetic value. Against the plants by the powdery mildew will become small, young leaves distorted, deformed, wilted, leaves do not deploy, smaller branches malformations, severe whole plant dies.
  1.3,1 Sprout Garden Lagerstroemia strong control, so the incidence of heavy plant, can be cut off in winter and focus all year branches burned to the elimination of pathogens. Family potted crape myrtle powdery mildew if found infected, diseased leaves should be removed in time and place potted air and light office. Field cultivation to control a good planting density, and enhance the daily management, attention to increasing phosphorus, potassium, nitrogen application rate control to improve plant disease resistance; resistant varieties should also be paid to the choice.
  Brown spot on the wide range of garden plants is a serious disease, often occurring in the crape myrtle growing season. Leaf spot often causes severe large number of yellow leaves fall off. Affect ornamental and flowering.
  2.3 Control Methods -
  3, coal pollution disease
  3.2 Occurrence - coal pollution and the mycelia of pathogenic fungi or ascus seat in the form of diseased leaves, branches winter disease. Because and crape myrtle Lagerstroemia indica long trifolii mucus excretion Eriococcus coal pollution for the pathogen provide nutrition, so usually after the occurrence of these two kinds of pests, diseases will be a lot of coal pollution occurred. The late June to early September is the crape myrtle Lagerstroemia Eriococcus and harm long trifolii heyday Moreover, at this time of high temperature, high humidity is also conducive to the occurrence of the disease, so the spring (winter caused by bacteria) and autumn (and Eriococcus trifolii caused long) season is the crape myrtle disease Shengfa coal pollution period of 1 year in Tianshui area, 1 to 2, on behalf of.
  3.3.2 Chemical control agents used for the Danliuheji winter 3 ° Shiliuheji with Baume, summer, autumn and 0.3 ° Shiliugeji. Also used three parathion, Litsea juice to control cotyledon. Or spray Carbendazim 50% WP 500? 800 times, 70% methyl Mop 500 times so subsidized.
  4.1 damage characteristics - mainly the larvae feed on yellow slug harm. Generally clustered in the newly hatched larvae feeding on leaf blade on the back, so that was sieve-like leaves; older larvae will crawl proliferation risk and the direct eating leaves and severe leaf is eaten, leaving only the petiole and vein.
  4.3.1 Control winter gardening combined pruning, remove the branches of winter cocoon, thereby eliminating or reducing Insect.
  Myrtle will have green or brown flavescens flavescens such hazards, but they are all flavescens class, in addition to a slightly different morphology, the occurrence in the life habits and there is great similarity, can be in the fight against yellow slug Time to rid of.
  5.1 Morphology -
  5.3 damage characteristics - leaf-feeding damage by larvae, young larvae eat the leaves into a notch or hole, slightly larger than before he ate the whole leaf, petiole or only residual coarse veins.
  5.4.2 Chemical control - chemical control should pay attention to early detection, early prevention, as far as possible ensure that the 3rd instar larvae before the medication; can be sprayed fenitrothion 50% EC 800 times, or 80% DDVP 1000 times, or 90% of the crystal trichlorfon 1,000 times, or 2.5% deltamethrin EC 3000 times control.
