美人蕉具有花大、叶茂、色艳、花期集中且在夏季高温其它花卉较少的季节开放、生长强健、适应性强等特点,但由于生长高度一般在1m以上,且不整齐,一般只是点缀应用在花坛。美人蕉矮化技术,就是控制美人蕉生长高度,使美人蕉平均株高控制在70cm~90cm,保持花坛平整,这样就能片植应用,南方城市已有成功经验。2005年起,我们尝试引进矮化美人蕉进行种植,并取得了不错的景观效果,现将其种植、矮化经验总结如下。 Canna has the characteristics of large flowers, leafy foliage, bright color, high flowering period and other seasons with high growth rate in summer with strong growth and adaptability. However, growth is usually over 1m in height and irregular, Used in flower beds. Canna dwarfing technology is to control the height of the growth of the canna so that the average height of the canna in 70cm ~ 90cm, to keep the flower beds flat, so that plants can be applied film, the southern city has been successful. Since 2005, we have tried to introduce dwarf canna for planting, and achieved good landscape effect. Now we summarize the experience of planting and dwarfing as follows.
