La I-Metasequoia glyptostroboides iyisihlahlana eside kakhulu, silungele izingadi ezinkulu lapho singathuthuka ngokukhululeka, ngaleyo ndlela sivumele umbukeli ukuthi asicabangisise ngabo bonke ubukhazikhazi baso.
Ukugcinwa kwayo akunzima kakhulu, yize kufanele kukhunjulwe ukuthi uyazithanda izimo zezulu ezipholile, noma ngabe zipholile.
Umsuka nezici
Kuyi-conifer ekhula ngokushesha eyaziwa ngokuthi i-metasequoia noma i-metasecoya. Ekuqaleni kusuka ezifundazweni zaseChina zaseSichuan naseHubei, ingafinyelela ubude obungamamitha angama-50, enobubanzi betrunk obufinyelela ku-2m.
Amaqabunga aqinile, aluhlaza okotshani ngaphandle kwasekwindla lapho eba bomvu ngokubomvu ngaphambi kokuwa. Izigaxa ziyi-globose to ovoid, futhi zilinganisa u-15 kuye ku-25mm ububanzi. Lezi zihlelwe ngababili abaphikisanayo, futhi zivuthwa izinyanga eziyi-8 noma eziyi-9 ngemuva kokuvotelwa.
Ziyini izinkathazo zabo?
Uma ufuna ukuba nekhophi le- I-Metasequoia glyptostroboides, sincoma ukuthi unikeze lokhu kunakekelwa okulandelayo:
- Indawo: kufanele ibe ngaphandle, elangeni eligcwele noma emthunzini omncane.
- Umhlaba:
- Ingadi: inhlabathi kufanele ivunde, ikhishwe kahle futhi ibe ne-asidi encane.
- Ibhodwe: sebenzisa i-substrate yezitshalo ezinomsoco (kuyathengiswa lapha), yize khumbula ukuthi akusona isihlahla ongakhula kuso esitsheni impilo yakho yonke.
- Ukunisela: ngokulinganisela. Kufanele unisele cishe ama-4 noma ama-5 ngesonto ehlobo, futhi cishe izikhathi ezimbili ngesonto unyaka wonke.
- Umbhalisile: entwasahlobo nasehlobo, nge Umanyolo wezemvelo.
- Ukuphindaphinda: ngezimbewu ebusika, njengoba zidinga ukubanda ngaphambi kokuhluma.
- Isikhathi sokutshala: entwasahlobo.
- Isibindi: ukumelana kuze kufike ku -18ºC.

Ekuphetheni, ake ngikutshele okuthile. Lesi sihlanganisi ngumuthi obhekwa njengezinsalela eziphilayo. Kungani? Ngoba kutholwe izinsalela zemvelo ezikhombisa ukuthi cishe eminyakeni eyizigidi ezingama-55-56 edlule, ngesikhathi sokushisa okushisayo kwePaleocene-Eocene, yayivele ikhona. Eqinisweni, uhlobo lweMetasequoia lwalunezinhlobo ezifika kwezingama-20 (futhi hhayi nje olunye olufana nanamuhla, okuyilona esikulethele lona lapha) olwaluhlala kuyo yonke iNyakatho Nenkabazwe.
