Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of tree restoration, in particular to an ancient tree restoration method. Background Art

[0002] Ancient trees and famous trees are symbols of the long history and culture of the Chinese nation, green cultural relics, living fossils, and priceless treasures left to us by nature and our ancestors. They have important historical and scientific value. However, due to environmental, human, natural disasters, pests and other reasons, ancient trees and famous trees have aged and died for a long time. Therefore, rescue measures must be taken to strengthen the management and maintenance of ancient trees and famous trees to delay their aging.

[0003] Traditional ancient tree restoration focuses on the ancient trees, but some ancient trees themselves are difficult to be effectively repaired. In order to solve the problem that dying ancient trees are difficult to rejuvenate, the inventor thought of using new trees to graft around the ancient trees to create the image of ancient trees. Through research, the inventor found that by planting a circle of young trees around a central tree, the main trunk trees can be expanded by grafting the young trees to the central tree, so as to indirectly achieve the purpose of rejuvenating the ancient trees.

[0004] However, during conventional tree planting, the roots of the seedlings must be planted with soil balls in order to obtain a higher survival rate. Since the diameter of the soil ball is large, there will inevitably be gaps between the young trees planted in a circle. To solve this problem, we propose a method for repairing ancient trees. Summary of the invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for repairing ancient trees to solve the problems raised in the above-mentioned background technology.

[0006] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0007] A method for restoring an ancient tree comprises the following steps:

[0008] Step 1: Grafting the saplings and seedlings, and pruning and adjusting the root systems of the saplings and seedlings to obtain trees with lateral roots;

[0009] Step 2: Plant several young trees outside the old trees to be restored;

[0010] Step 3: Plant trees with lateral roots in the gaps between adjacent young trees;

[0011] Step 4: Graft young trees and trees with lateral roots onto old trees to be restored;

[0012] Step 5: After the grafting in step 4 is successful, the root systems of young trees and trees with lateral roots are trimmed and planted to obtain restored ancient trees.

[0013] As a further solution of the present invention: in the step 1, the saplings and the seedlings are grafted using the approach grafting method.

[0014] As a further solution of the present invention: the sapling and the seedling tree are butted against each other when the trunk of the sapling is 3-5 cm above the ground.

[0015] As a further solution of the present invention: in step one, the pruning and adjustment of the root systems of the saplings and seedlings includes combing the root systems of the seedlings to be laterally distributed away from the saplings during the grafting process, and after the two grafts have survived for 30-60 days, cutting off the taproots of the saplings to obtain trees with lateral roots.

[0016] As a further solution of the present invention: in the step 2, a plurality of young trees are distributed in a circle outside the old tree to be restored, with the old tree to be restored as the center.

[0017] As a further solution of the present invention: in the step 4, young trees and trees with lateral roots are grafted with the old trees to be restored by the approach grafting method.

[0018] As a further solution of the present invention: in step 5, the method for trimming and planting the root systems of young trees and trees with lateral roots comprises:

[0019] When young trees and trees with lateral roots are successfully grafted with old trees to be restored, the taproots of the young trees are cut off and the remaining root systems are planted, or the lateral roots of trees with lateral roots are cut off and the remaining root systems are planted.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0021] In the ancient tree repair method provided by the present invention, trees with lateral roots can effectively fill the planting gaps between adjacent small trees caused by the soil ball, so that the two can tightly surround the outside of the ancient tree. After the grafting is successful, the trunk of the ancient tree can be expanded, so as to indirectly achieve the purpose of rejuvenating the ancient tree and improve the survival rate of dying ancient trees. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0022] Figure 1 The figure is a flow chart of an ancient tree restoration method. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0024] See also Figure 1 In an embodiment of the present invention, a method for repairing an ancient tree comprises the following steps:

[0025] Step 1: Grafting the saplings and seedlings, and pruning and adjusting the root systems of the saplings and seedlings to obtain trees with lateral roots;

[0026] Step 2: Plant several young trees outside the old trees to be restored;

[0027] Step 3: Plant trees with lateral roots in the gaps between adjacent young trees;

[0028] Step 4: Graft young trees and trees with lateral roots onto old trees to be restored;

[0029] Step 5: After the grafting in step 4 is successful, the root systems of young trees and trees with lateral roots are trimmed and planted to obtain restored ancient trees.

[0030] In the step 1, the saplings and seedlings are grafted using the approach grafting method.

[0031] The saplings are grafted onto the young trees at a distance of 3-5 cm from the ground from the trunks of the saplings.

[0032] In step one, the pruning and adjustment of the root systems of the saplings and seedlings includes combing the root systems of the seedlings to distribute them laterally away from the saplings during the grafting process. Since the root systems of the seedlings are relatively soft, they can be easily bent and adjusted. After the two have been grafted for 30-60 days, the taproots of the saplings are cut off to obtain trees with lateral roots.

[0033] In the step 2, a plurality of young trees are distributed in a circle outside the old tree to be restored, with the old tree to be restored as the center.

[0034] In step 4, young trees and trees with lateral roots are grafted onto the old trees to be restored using the approach grafting method.

[0035] In step 5, the method for trimming and planting the root systems of young trees and trees with lateral roots includes:

[0036] When young trees and trees with lateral roots are successfully grafted with old trees to be restored, the taproots of the young trees are cut off and the remaining root systems are planted, or the lateral roots of trees with lateral roots are cut off and the remaining root systems are planted.

[0037] By adopting the above scheme, trees with lateral roots can effectively fill the planting gaps between adjacent small trees caused by the soil balls, so that the two can tightly surround the outside of the ancient tree. After the grafting is successful, the trunk of the ancient tree can be expanded.

[0038] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, it is still possible for those skilled in the art to modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or to make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features therein. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
