CATDOLL : CATDOLL: Can the eggs of worms on the leaves of Schefflera be treated with onion water?

1. Can the insect eggs on the leaves of Schefflera be treated with onion water?

There are insect eggs on the leaves of Schefflera chinensis, which can be prevented by using onion water, which can play a certain role in preventing and killing insects.

Onion water doesn't have much effect.

Round shield scale: It will harm the back of leaves. If found, it should be removed immediately. You can choose to use soil-buried insecticide, 1 gram per pot, bury it 2 cm in the soil. Leaf miners: They will eat leaves in the shape of webs. They can be sprayed with dimethoate emulsion. Red spiders and thrips: When the disease occurs, they can be sprayed with 10% dichlorophenoxyacetic acid emulsion 3000 times diluted.

2. The branches and leaves of my Schefflera affine tree secrete a sticky substance, making the flowerpot and the ground full of mucus. It sticks to the touch. Is it sick? How can I treat it?

Your Schefflera must have been grown indoors for a long time, and the ventilation is poor. It is recommended that you first check whether there are small white, gray or pink things on the branches and the back of the leaves (the Schefflera is generally gray shield scale). They are densely packed on the branches, lying motionless, sucking the sap of the branches and causing harm. These are scales, and their secretions are sticky and shiny, which can easily induce sooty mold. Timely prevention and control is required. It is best to choose a special scale killer, such as Guoguang Scale Killer and Methicon, which are the best. In addition, it is necessary to place the Schefflera in a place with better light and suitable ventilation in time. The prevention and control combined with scraping, brushing and wiping will have a more ideal effect.

3. The difference between Schefflera chinensis and money tree

1. Different species. Schefflera belongs to the genus Schefflera, while the money tree, also known as the taro, belongs to the genus Taro.

Additional information

Schefflera is suitable for living rooms, study rooms and bedrooms. There are many varieties: the "dwarf" Schefflera is small and compact; the "yellow spot" Schefflera has yellow-green leaves; the "Henry" Schefflera has large leaves with yellow spots; the "variegated" Schefflera has more yellow spots on the leaves.

Each of the even-pinnate compound leaves of the Cistanche plant is sturdy at the base of the rachis, like a protruding Buddha's belly. The upper and middle parts of the rachis are cylindrical, with irregular dark brown spots, as if covered with a layer of camouflage. The oval or ovate leaflets on its compound leaves are thick in texture and dark green in color, as if coated with a layer of glittering glaze in the sun. If several plants are planted together in an exquisite blue and white porcelain pot, there will be a kind of vigorous vitality and lush green vitality, with high ornamental value.

Taro can absorb poisonous gases and release oxygen through photosynthesis, bringing fresh air. During the day, it can absorb carbon dioxide in the room and release oxygen at the same time, increasing the concentration of negative ions in the indoor air. It can even absorb dust that is difficult to be sucked up by a vacuum cleaner. More importantly, it can also absorb harmful gases such as formaldehyde and benzene, and kill bacteria in the air. In this process, the air is effectively purified, the green atmosphere in the space is increased, and people feel relaxed and happy.

Schefflera is also known as Schefflera arborvitae.

Schefflera prefers semi-shade and can be viewed for a long time in a bright and well-ventilated home. It can grow well if it is exposed to direct sunlight for about 4 hours a day. Varieties with yellow and white stripes will have their stripes blurred if the light is too weak or nitrogen fertilizer is applied excessively, thus losing their original characteristics.

The optimum growth temperature is 15-25℃, and the minimum temperature in winter should not be lower than 5℃, otherwise the leaves will fall off. New leaves will appear in the spring of the following year.

It grows well in an environment with high air humidity and sufficient soil moisture, but it has strong adaptability to the dry climate in the north. Note that the potting soil should not be short of water, otherwise it will cause a large number of leaves to fall off. Water should be properly controlled under low temperature conditions in winter.

Apply liquid fertilizer once every 1 to 2 weeks during the growing season.

Change the pot every spring. If you use a plastic container, pay attention to drainage. The potting soil is made of peat soil, leaf mold, perlite and a small amount of base fertilizer. Fine sand can also be used for potting.

The money tree is the banyan tree.

Suitable for potted ornamental, often used to decorate the halls and entrances of hotels and public places, and also suitable for family living rooms and windowsills. Like warm and humid environment, need plenty of sunlight, relatively cold-resistant, also shade-tolerant, soil requires fertile, well-drained soil, winter temperature should not be lower than 5 ℃. Because the money fig grows fast, it needs to be repotted every spring, add fertilizer, and prune and shape. Water more in high temperature in summer, and spray water on the leaves frequently. Fertilize once every half month during the growing season. Avoid strong sunlight.

Money fig is a flower with strong vitality. The reason for the yellowing of leaves is generally due to excessive drought. Money fig prefers a semi-shady environment, but the plant shape will be better with sufficient sunlight and the leaf color will be darker. Flowers such as banyan trees prefer a humid environment, but there must be a degree. Too much moisture will also cause root rot and cause the leaves to turn yellow and fall off. Do not apply concentrated fertilizer at ordinary times. After placing it indoors for a period of time, move it to a sunny place for a few days, and do not shade it too much, otherwise its growth will become weak.
