Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to plant shaping methods, specifically methods for artificially shaping the roots and branches of plants, and belongs to the field of plant cultivation technology. Background Technology

[0002] Plant styling utilizes the ingenuity and skill of technicians, employing cultivation management, shaping and pruning, and trellis construction to create beautiful artistic forms. Beautiful plant styling possesses high ornamental value, providing people with a civilized, healthy, and comfortable working and living environment, allowing their minds and bodies to adjust and relax amidst the stresses of work and life. Existing plant styling mainly falls into two categories: one involves shaping hedges or climbing plants through shaping, pruning, and trellis construction; this method is relatively simple. The other involves shaping the roots or branches of plants with well-developed root systems or branches through cultivation management, creating various textual and patterned shapes, enhancing the plant's aesthetic appeal, improving its ornamental effect, and conveying corresponding cultural meanings; this type of styling requires a higher level of skill.

[0003] To make the roots or branches of a plant present various different text or pattern shapes, it is necessary to intervene in the growth process of the plant's roots or branches. Currently, there are various methods for artificially shaping the roots and branches of plants, but they generally have disadvantages such as complicated operation, lack of universality, non-standard shapes, and low survival rate after shaping. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method for artificially shaping the roots and branches of plants. This method is characterized by its simple operation, strong versatility, standardized shaping patterns, and high success rate, and can effectively make up for the shortcomings of the existing technology.

[0005] The first aspect of this invention provides a method for artificially shaping the roots of plants, the specific technical solution of which is as follows:

[0006] A method for artificially shaping the roots of plants includes the following steps:

[0007] (1) Planting: Plant multiple plants for use. Select multi-rooted plant varieties with vigorous root growth for planting. When the roots have grown to a certain length and have not yet hardened, dig out the plants for use.

[0008] (2) Mold making: Draw text or patterns composed of dots and lines on the outer side of the plastic planting pot, dividing the text or patterns into multiple independent dots, straight line segments and curved lines; drill root inlet and outlet holes in the planting pot at the center of the dots, at both ends of the straight line segments and at both ends of the curved lines, and drill only one root inlet and outlet hole at the overlapping end of the line segments as a common hole; make corresponding root reinforcement molds according to the shape of each curved line segment, and glue and fix the root reinforcement molds to the corresponding curved line positions on the outer side of the planting pot.

[0009] (3) Shaping: Select a plant with many roots and suitable root length from the plants to be used as the main plant and place it in the prepared planting pot. Provide a root for each independent point, straight line segment, and curved line segment of the text or pattern. For the root corresponding to the point, make a loop outside the planting pot from the root inlet hole in the center of the point, and then make a loop back into the planting pot from the original hole, so that the root forms a root point shape at the point position outside the planting pot. For the root corresponding to the straight line segment, make a loop outside the planting pot from the root inlet hole at one end of the straight line segment, and then make a loop back into the planting pot from the straight line segment. The root inlet / outlet hole at the other end of the segment is passed back into the planting pot, so that the roots form a straight root shape at the straight section outside the planting pot; for the roots corresponding to the curved section, they pass out of the planting pot from the root inlet / outlet hole at one end of the curved section, and then pass back into the planting pot from the root inlet / outlet hole at the other end of the curved section. The part of the roots outside the planting pot is arranged along the root reinforcement mold of this curved section and the roots are attached and fixed to the root reinforcement mold with clamps or ropes, so that the roots form a curved root shape along the root reinforcement mold at the curved section outside the planting pot.

[0010] In this step, when the text or pattern to be formed is complex and the roots of the main plant are insufficient to provide a root for each independent point, straight line segment, and curved line segment of the text or pattern, it is necessary to cut some roots from other plants to be used and graft them onto the main root of the main plant. The shaping is then carried out after the grafting is completed.

[0011] (4) Maintenance: After the root system of the main plant is shaped, fill the planting pot with soil to fill the root area of ​​the main plant, and put a bag larger than the planting pot on the outside of the planting pot. Fill the bag with soil and bury the shaped roots exposed outside the planting pot in the soil for a period of time until the roots on the outside of the planting pot harden.

[0012] (5) Shaping: After the maintenance is completed, remove the outer bag and remove the fill soil and root steel bars on the outside of the planting pot to expose the shape of the roots, so that the shape of the main plant roots can be presented on the outside of the planting pot.

[0013] In addition to using the methods described above to shape the plant roots outside the planting pot, you can also shape the plant roots on flat or sloping ground next to the planting site. In this case, the following methods can be used.

[0014] A method for artificially shaping the roots of plants includes the following steps:

[0015] (1) Planting: Plant multiple plants for use. Select multi-rooted plant varieties with vigorous root growth for planting. When the roots have grown to a certain length and have not yet hardened, dig out the plants for use.

[0016] (2) Modeling: Dig planting pits in the planting area, and draw text or patterns composed of dots and lines on the flat or sloping ground next to the planting pits with white powder. Divide the text or patterns into multiple independent dots, straight line segments and curved lines. Set root entry and exit positions at the center of the dots, at both ends of the straight line segments and at both ends of the curved lines. Set only one root entry and exit position at the overlapping end of the line segments as a shared position. Each root entry and exit position is connected to at least one root burial trench that leads the roots into or out of the shaping area. The root burial trench is a trench dug directly on the ground. The root burial trench that leads the roots into the shaping area is also connected to the planting pit. On both sides of the curved lines, retaining soil is piled up to form a curved retaining trench on the ground.

[0017] (3) Shaping: Select a plant with many roots and suitable root length from the plants to be used as the main plant and transplant it into the planting pit. Provide one root for each independent point, straight line segment, and curved line segment of the text or pattern. For the root corresponding to the point, walk from the planting pit along the root trench to the root entry and exit point in the center of the point, then walk out of the ground and make a circle, and then walk back to the root trench from the original root entry and exit point. Cover the root walking in the root trench with soil so that the root forms a root point shape at the point position on the ground. For the root corresponding to the straight line segment, walk from the planting pit along the root trench to the root entry and exit point at one end of the straight line segment. After the roots emerge from the planting pit, they travel along a straight section on the ground, then return to the root trench from the root entry / exit point at the other end of the straight section. The roots that have traveled through the root trench are then buried with soil, forming a straight root shape at the straight section on the ground. For roots corresponding to curved sections, they travel from the planting pit along the root trench to the root entry / exit point at one end of the curved section, emerge from the ground, then travel along the curved limiting groove on the ground, and return to the root trench from the root entry / exit point at the other end of the curved section. The roots that have traveled through the root trench are then buried with soil, forming a curved root shape at the curved section on the ground.

[0018] In this step, when the text or pattern to be formed is complex and the roots of the main plant are insufficient to provide a root for each independent point, straight line segment, and curved line segment of the text or pattern, it is necessary to cut some roots from other plants to be used and graft them onto the main root of the main plant. The shaping is then carried out after the grafting is completed.

[0019] (4) Maintenance: After the main plant's root system is shaped, cover the exposed roots with a layer of soil and maintain them for a period of time until the roots harden.

[0020] (5) Shaping: After maintenance, remove the soil covering the roots of the main plant to reveal the shape of the main plant roots on the flat or sloping ground next to the planting site.

[0021] The second aspect of this invention provides a method for artificially shaping the branches and trunks of plants, the specific technical solution of which is as follows:

[0022] (1) Classify main branch plants and branching plants: Based on the text or pattern shape that the plant branches need to form, plants are classified into main branch plants and branching plants. Main branch plants are the main supporting branches of text or pattern shape, while branching plants are the remaining shape branches of text or pattern shape.

[0023] (2) Planting of main branches: The main branches are set as one or more plants according to the shape requirements. The main branches are planted in planting pots. When the shape of the main branches is a straight line or a diagonal line, the main trunk of the main branches is made to grow into a straight line or diagonal shape under the binding of the straight line or diagonal line frame. When the shape of the main branches is a broken line or a curve, the corresponding main branch steel bar mold needs to be made according to the shape of the broken line or curve. Then, the main branch steel bar mold is placed in the planting pot with a support and the lower part of the main branch steel bar mold is bound to the seedling of the main trunk of the main branch. During the growth of the main branches, the placement angle of the planting pot is adjusted regularly so that the main tip of the main branches grows along the shape of the main branch steel bar mold and always keeps the main tip perpendicular to the horizontal ground. Then, the newly grown main trunk of the main branches is gradually bound to the main branch steel bar mold in the form of binding a section at a time, so that the main trunk of the main branches grows into the shape of the main branch steel bar mold.

[0024] (3) Planting of branching plants: Divide the text or pattern to be constructed using branching plants into multiple independent points, straight line segments, and curved line segments, and equip each independent point, straight line segment, and curved line segment with a branching plant; make corresponding branching steel molds according to the shape of each point, straight line segment, and curved line segment. In addition to a shaping mold, each branching steel mold is connected to a grafting mold, an avoidance mold, and a root-connecting mold on one side in sequence; the branching plants are planted in nutrient bags. The branching steel molds are supported by a support frame inside the nutrient bags and the branching steel is placed in place. The root-binding mold is tied to the seedling of the branching plant's main stem. During the growth of the branching plant, the angle of the nutrient bag is adjusted regularly to ensure that the main shoot of the branching plant grows in accordance with the shape of the branching steel mold and always keeps the main shoot perpendicular to the horizontal ground. Then, the newly grown main stem of the branching plant is gradually tied to the branching steel mold in sections, so that the branches of the branching plant grow into corresponding avoidance sections, grafting sections, and shaping sections, consistent with the shape of the branching steel mold. The avoidance sections are set up to ensure that the position is not blocked during subsequent grafting operations.

[0025] (4) Grafting shaping: Use the main branch plant as the main supporting branch for the text or pattern shape, and graft the shaping plant onto the main branch plant one by one; when grafting, remove the main shoot of the shaping plant and use its grafting section to graft onto the main stem of the main branch plant. After grafting, do not remove the nutrient bag of the shaping plant. Keep it for a period of time. After confirming that the grafting has survived, cut it off from the head of the avoidance section of the shaping plant, leaving only the shaping section and the grafting section on the main stem of the main branch plant. This will allow the plant branches to construct the corresponding text or pattern shape.

[0026] In this step, when there are multiple main branches and their shapes intersect, the main stems of the intersecting main branches are first grafted into a whole, and then the branching plants are grafted onto it.

[0027] The present invention provides a method for artificially shaping the roots and branches of plants. The method for artificially shaping the roots of plants includes five major steps: planting, molding, shaping, maintenance, and forming. The principle is that when plant roots grow, they change from soft to hard. When the roots are still soft, they are shaped with a mold. After the roots naturally grow and harden, natural shaping can be achieved. The method for artificially shaping the branches of plants includes four major steps: dividing the main branch plants and the branch plants, planting the main branch plants, planting the branch plants, and grafting and forming. The principle is that the growth of plant branches requires a process. During this process, the main shoot of the plant always grows perpendicular to the horizontal ground. By adjusting the placement angle of its planting pot or nutrient bag, the main shoot of the plant is made to grow along the steel bar mold, so that the main branch plants and the branch plants can be shaped respectively. Then, the branch plants are grafted onto the main branch plants one by one to form a complete shape. The method for artificially shaping the roots and branches of plants according to the present invention is simple to operate, has strong versatility, has standard shaping patterns, and has a high survival rate after shaping, and is worthy of wide promotion and application.

Specific implementation mode

[0058] The following further describes the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0059] Embodiment 1: Construct the shape of the Chinese character "Fu" shown in Figure 1 outside the planting pot with plant root hairs. The specific steps are as follows:

[0060] (1) Planting: Plant multiple待用 plants, select multiple plant varieties with strong root growth for planting. When the root hairs grow to a certain length and have not hardened yet, dig out the plants for later use.

[0061] (2) Molding: Draw the Chinese character "Fu" composed of points and lines on the outer side surface of the plastic planting pot, and divide the Chinese character "Fu" into 16 independent points and straight line segments, as shown in Figure 2 ; Drill root entry / exit holes 1 at the central position of the points and at the two ends of the straight line segments. At the overlapping positions of the line segment ends, only drill one root entry / exit hole 1 as a common use, as shown in Figure 3 ;

[0062] (3) Shape: Select a plant with many and appropriately long root hairs from the待用 plants as the main plant and place it in the molded planting pot. Equip each independent point and straight line segment of the "Fu" character with a root hair respectively. For the root hair corresponding to a point, make it pass through the root outlet hole 1 in the center of the point, come out of the planting pot, make a loop, and then pass back into the planting pot through the original hole position, so that the root hair forms a root hair point shape at the point position outside the planting pot, as shown in Figure 4 shown; for the root hair corresponding to a straight line segment, make it pass through the root outlet hole 1 at one end of the straight line segment, come out of the planting pot, and then pass back into the planting pot through the root outlet hole 1 at the other end of the straight line segment, so that the root hair forms a root hair straight line shape at the straight line segment position outside the planting pot. When the root hairs of the main plant are not enough to equip each of the 16 independent points and straight line segments of the "Fu" character with a root hair respectively, some root hairs need to be intercepted from other待用 plants and grafted onto the main root of the main plant. After grafting, the shaping is carried out.

[0063] (4) Maintenance: After the root hair shaping of the main plant is completed, fill the planting pot with soil to fill the root position of the main plant, and put a bag larger than the planting pot outside the planting pot. Fill the bag with soil to bury the shaped root hairs exposed outside the planting pot and maintain for a period of time until the root hairs outside the planting pot become hard.

[0064] (5) Shaping: After maintenance, remove the outer bag and remove the soil filled outside the planting pot to expose the shaped root hairs, so that the "Fu" character shape at the root of the main plant can be presented outside the planting pot.

[0065] Example 2: Construct the "China" English shape shown in Figure 5 outside the planting pot with plant root hairs. The specific steps are as follows:

[0066] (1) Planting: Plant multiple待用 plants, select a multi-root plant variety with strong root growth, and when its root hairs grow to a certain length and have not become hard yet, dig out the plants for待用.

[0067] (2) Molding: Draw the English word "China" composed of points and lines on the outer side of the plastic planting pot, divide the English word "China" into 9 independent points, straight line segments and curve segments, as shown in Figure 6 shown; drill root outlet holes 1 at the central position of the points, the two ends of the straight line segments, and the two ends of the curve segments of the planting pot. Only drill one root outlet hole 1 at the overlapping position of the segment ends as a common use, as shown in Figure 8 shown; make corresponding root hair steel molds 2 according to the shape of each curve segment, as shown in Figure 7 shown, and bond and fix the root hair steel mold 2 at the position corresponding to the curve segment on the outer side of the planting pot, as shown in Figure 8 shown.

[0068] (3) Shaping: Select a plant with many roots and suitable root length from the plants to be used as the main plant and place it in the prepared planting pot. Provide a root for each independent point, straight line segment, and curved line segment of the English word "China". For the root corresponding to the point, make a loop from the root inlet / outlet hole 1 in the center of the point outside the planting pot, and then return to the planting pot from the original hole position, so that the root forms a root point shape at the point position outside the planting pot; for the root corresponding to the straight line segment, make a loop from the root inlet / outlet hole 1 at one end of the straight line segment outside the planting pot, and then return to the planting pot from the straight line segment. The root inlet / outlet hole 1 at the other end of the segment is passed back into the planting pot, so that the roots form a straight root shape on the straight segment outside the planting pot. For the roots corresponding to the curved segment, they pass out of the planting pot from the root inlet / outlet hole 1 at one end of the curved segment, and then pass back into the planting pot from the root inlet / outlet hole 1 at the other end of the curved segment. The part of the roots outside the planting pot is arranged along the root reinforcement mold 2 of this curved segment and fixed to the root reinforcement mold 2 with clamps or ropes, so that the roots form a curved root shape along the root reinforcement mold 2 on the curved segment outside the planting pot. When the roots of the main plant are insufficient to provide one root for each of the nine independent points, straight segments and curved segments of the English word "China", some roots need to be cut from other plants to be used and grafted to the main root of the main plant. The shaping is then carried out after the grafting is completed.

[0069] (4) Maintenance: After the root system of the main plant is shaped, fill the planting pot with soil to fill the root area of ​​the main plant, and put a bag larger than the planting pot on the outside of the planting pot. Fill the bag with soil and bury the shaped roots exposed outside the planting pot in the soil for a period of time until the roots on the outside of the planting pot harden.

[0070] (5) Shaping: After the maintenance is completed, remove the outer bag and remove the fill soil and root steel bar mold 2 on the outside of the planting pot to expose the shaped roots, so that the "China" English shape of the main plant root can be presented on the outside of the planting pot.

[0071] Example 3: Using plant roots to construct on flat or sloping ground next to the planting site Figure 9 The specific steps for creating the "fish" pattern shown are as follows:

[0072] (1) Planting: Plant multiple plants for use. Select multi-rooted plant varieties with vigorous root growth for planting. When the roots have grown to a certain length and have not yet hardened, dig out the plants for use.

[0073] (2) Modeling: Dig planting pit 3 in the planting area, and draw a "fish" pattern composed of dots and lines on the flat or sloping ground next to planting pit 3 with white powder. Divide the "fish" pattern into sections as follows: Figure 10 The diagram shows eight independent points, line segments, and curve segments; as shown. Figure 11As shown, root entry / exit points 4 are set at the center of the point, at both ends of the straight segment, and at both ends of the curved segment. Only one root entry / exit point 4 is shared at the overlapping ends of the line segments. Each root entry / exit point 4 is connected to at least one root-burying trench 5 that leads the roots into or out of the shaping area. The root-burying trench 5 is a trench dug directly in the ground. The root-burying trench 5 that leads the roots into the shaping area is also connected to the planting pit 3. Limiting retaining walls 6 are also piled on both sides of the curved segment, forming a curved limiting trench 7 on the ground constructed by the limiting retaining walls 6, as shown. Figure 11-12 As shown.

[0074] (3) Shaping: Select a plant with many roots and suitable root length from the plants to be used as the main plant and transplant it into planting pit 3. Provide one root for each independent point, straight segment and curved segment of the "fish" pattern. For the root corresponding to the point, it goes from planting pit 3 along the root trench 5 to the root entry and exit position 4 in the center of the point, then goes out of the ground and makes a circle, and then goes back to the root trench 5 from the original root entry and exit position 4. The root that has gone through the root trench 5 is buried with soil so that the root forms a root point shape at the point position on the ground. For the root corresponding to the straight segment, it goes from planting pit 3 along the root trench 5 to the root entry and exit position at one end of the straight segment. After the roots emerge from the ground (4), they travel along a straight section on the ground, then return to the root trench (5) from the root entry / exit point (4) at the other end of the straight section. The roots are then buried in soil within the root trench (5), creating a straight root shape at the straight section on the ground. For roots corresponding to curved sections, they travel from the planting pit (3) along the root trench (5) to the root entry / exit point (4) at one end of the curved section, emerge from the ground, then travel along the curved limiting groove (7) on the ground, then return to the root trench (5) from the root entry / exit point (4) at the other end of the curved section. The roots are then buried in soil within the root trench (5), creating a curved root shape at the curved section on the ground. When the main plant's roots are insufficient to provide one root for each of the eight independent points, straight sections, and curved sections of the "fish" pattern, some roots must be taken from other plants to be grafted onto the main root of the main plant. The shaping process is then carried out after grafting.

[0075] (4) Maintenance: After the main plant's root system is shaped, cover the exposed roots with a layer of soil and maintain them for a period of time until the roots harden.

[0076] (5) Shaping: After maintenance, remove the soil covering the roots of the shaped plant to reveal the "fish" pattern on the flat or sloping ground next to the planting site.

[0077] Example 4: Constructing using plant branches Figure 13 The steps to create the letter "A" shown are as follows:

[0078] (1). Divide the main branch plants and the branch-forming plants: Divide the plants into main branch plants and branch-forming plants according to the "A" English shape that the plant branches need to form. Among them, the main branch plants are the supporting branches on both sides of the "A" English shape, and the branch-forming plants are the horizontal branches in the middle of the "A" English shape.

[0079] (2). Planting of the main branch plants: Set two main branch plants according to the shape requirements. The main branch plants are planted in planting pots; the two main branch plants are bound by the diagonal pole frames to make the main trunks grow into the diagonal intersection shape as shown in Figure 14 .

[0080] (3). Planting of the branch-forming plants: Equip one branch-forming plant for the horizontal branch in the middle of the "A" English shape; make the corresponding branch-forming steel mold 8 according to the shape of this straight line segment. In addition to having a section of shaping mold 8.1, the branch-forming steel mold 8 is successively connected with a section of grafting mold 8.2, a section of avoidance mold 8.3 and a section of root-connected mold 8.4 on one side of the shaping mold 8.1, as shown in Figure 16 ; The branch-forming plants are planted in nutrient bags. The branch-forming steel mold 8 is supported by a bracket in the nutrient bag and the root-connected mold 8.4 of the branch-forming steel mold 8 is bound to the seedling of the main trunk of the branch-forming plant. During the growth process of the branch-forming plant, regularly adjust the placement angle of the nutrient bag to make the main tip of the branch-forming plant grow along the shape of the branch-forming steel mold 8 and always keep the main tip perpendicular to the horizontal ground. Then, gradually bind the newly grown main trunk of the branch-forming plant to the branch-forming steel mold 8 in the form of binding one section at a time, so that the branches of the branch-forming plant grow into the corresponding avoidance section, grafting section and shaping section, which is consistent with the shape of the branch-forming steel mold 8, as shown in Figure 17 . The avoidance section is set to prevent the position from being blocked during the subsequent grafting operation.

[0081] (4). Grafting and forming: Use two main branch plants as the main supporting branches on both sides of the "A" English shape. First, cut off the main tip of one main branch plant and graft the main trunks of the two intersecting main branch plants into a whole, as shown in Figure 15 , and then graft the branch-forming plant onto the main branch plant; when grafting, as shown in Figure 18 , remove the main tip of the branch-forming plant, and use its grafting section to graft with the main trunk of the main branch plant. After grafting, do not remove the nutrient bag of the branch-forming plant first. Maintain it for a period of time. After determining that the grafting is successful, cut it off from the head of the avoidance section of the branch-forming plant, and only keep the shaping section and the grafting section on the main trunk of the main branch plant, so that the branches of the plant can construct the "A" English shape.

[0082] Example 5: Construct the "he" character shape shown in Figure 19 with the branches of plants. The specific steps are as follows:

[0083] (1). Divide the main branch plants and the branch-forming plants: Divide the plants into main branch plants and branch-forming plants according to the "he" character shape that the plant branches need to form. Among them, the main branch plants are the middle supporting branches, and the branch-forming plants are the remaining shaping branches for the "he" character shape.

[0084] (2). Planting of the main branch plants: One main branch plant is set according to the shaping requirements. The main branch plant is planted in a planting pot; under the binding of a straight rod frame, the main trunk of the main branch plant grows into a straight shape as shown in Figure 20 shown.

[0085] (3). Planting of the branch-forming plants: Divide the "he" character to be constructed by the branch-forming plants into 5 independent straight line segments and curve segments, and equip one branch-forming plant for each independent straight line segment and curve segment; make corresponding branch-forming steel molds 8 according to the shapes of the straight line segments and curve segments. In addition to having a shaping mold 8.1, each branch-forming steel mold 8 is sequentially connected with a grafting mold 8.2, an avoidance mold 8.3 and a root-connecting mold 8.4 on one side of the shaping mold 8.1, as shown in Figure 21 shown; The branch-forming plants are planted in nutrient bags. The branch-forming steel mold 8 is supported by a bracket in the nutrient bag and the root-connecting mold 8.4 of the branch-forming steel mold 8 is bound to the seedlings of the main trunk of the branch-forming plant. During the growth process of the branch-forming plant, regularly adjust the placement angle of the nutrient bag to make the main tip of the branch-forming plant grow along the shape of the branch-forming steel mold 8 and always keep the main tip perpendicular to the horizontal ground. Then, gradually bind the newly grown main trunk of the branch-forming plant to the branch-forming steel mold 8 in the form of binding one section at a time, so that the branches of the branch-forming plant grow into corresponding avoidance sections, grafting sections and shaping sections, which are consistent with the shape of the branch-forming steel mold 8, as shown in Figure 22 shown. The avoidance section is set to avoid being blocked during the subsequent grafting operation.

[0086] (4). Grafting and forming: Use the main branch plant as the middle supporting branch, and graft the branch-forming plants onto the main branch plant one by one; during grafting, as shown in Figure 23 shown, remove the main tip of the branch-forming plant, and use its grafting section to graft with the main trunk of the main branch plant. After grafting, do not remove the nutrient bag of the branch-forming plant first, maintain it for a period of time, and then cut it off from the head of the avoidance section of the branch-forming plant only after determining that the grafting is successful, and only keep the shaping section and the grafting section on the main trunk of the main branch plant, so that the branches of the plant can construct the "he" character shape.

[0087] Example 6: Construct the "China" English shape shown in Figure 24 using the branches of plants. The specific steps are as follows:

[0088] (1) Divide the main branch plants and the branching plants: Based on the "China" shape that the plant branches need to form, the plants are divided into main branch plants and branching plants. The main branch plants are the two supporting branches at the top and bottom, and the branching plants are the "China" shape branches in the middle.

[0089] (2) Planting of main branches: Two main branches are planted according to the desired shape, using planting pots. Both main branches are designed with a zigzag shape. First, a corresponding main branch steel template 9 needs to be made based on the zigzag shape. Then, the main branch steel template 9 is placed in the planting pot using a support frame, and the lower part of the template is tied to the seedling of the main branch plant's main stem. During the growth of the main branches, the angle of the planting pot is adjusted periodically to ensure that the main shoot of the main branch grows along the shape of the main branch steel template 9 and remains perpendicular to the ground. Then, the newly grown main stem is gradually tied to the main branch steel template 9, section by section, so that the main stem of the main branch grows into the shape of the main branch steel template 9. Figure 25 As shown.

[0090] (3) Planting of the pruning plants: The "China" lettering constructed by the pruning plants is divided into 9 independent points, straight lines, and curved lines. One pruning plant is provided for each independent point, straight line, and curved line. Corresponding pruning steel molds 8 are made according to the shape of each point, straight line, and curved line. Each pruning steel mold 8, in addition to a shaping mold 8.1, is connected to a grafting mold 8.2, a clearance mold 8.3, and a root-connecting mold 8.4 on one side of the shaping mold 8.1. In this embodiment, the clearance mold 8.3 and the root-connecting mold 8.4 share a common section. Figure 27 As shown; the shaped plants are planted in nutrient bags. Inside the nutrient bags, a support frame is used to hold the shaped steel mold 8, and the root-connected mold 8.4 of the shaped steel mold 8 is tied to the seedling's main stem. During the growth of the shaped plants, the angle of the nutrient bags is adjusted periodically to ensure that the main shoot of the shaped plant grows along the shape of the shaped steel mold 8 and always remains perpendicular to the horizontal ground. Then, the newly grown main stem of the shaped plant is gradually tied to the shaped steel mold 8 in sections, so that the branches of the shaped plant grow into corresponding avoidance sections, grafting sections, and shaping sections, consistent with the shape of the shaped steel mold 8, such as... Figure 28 As shown, the clearance section is set up to ensure that the grafting position is not blocked during subsequent grafting operations.

[0091] (4) Grafting and shaping: Use the main branches as the upper and lower supporting branches for the "China" English shape, and graft the shaping plants one by one onto the main branches; during grafting, if... Figure 29As shown, the main shoot of the shaped plant is removed, and its grafting section is used to graft onto the main stem of the main branch plant. After grafting, the nutrient bag of the shaped plant is not removed. After a period of maintenance, once the grafting is confirmed to have taken, it is cut off from the head of the avoidance section of the shaped plant, leaving only the shaping section and the grafting section on the main stem of the main branch plant. This will allow the branches of the plant to form the shape of the English word "China".
