Cutting propagation of prawn flower

The cutting of shrimp clothing flower can be carried out in four seasons, mainly in spring and summer. Summer cuttings need shade and moisture. First, cut the ear strips that are born in the current year and grow healthily with 2-3 internodes as cuttings. Both old branch cutting and tender branch cutting can be used. However, under the same temperature conditions, the rooting speed of tender branches is faster. The cutting matrix is suitable for yellow sand, vermiculite or perlite, and disinfection and sterilization. Insert the basal segment into the matrix, keep the room temperature below 20 ℃, take root after about 10 days, and bloom the next year. After the cuttings take root, they should be transplanted to the pot in time and shaded properly. After the new leaves grow, they should be moved to a sunny place

Sowing and propagation of prawn flower

First, it is necessary to select seeds. It is best to select the seeds collected in the current year to ensure the germination rate of seeds. Choose plump and disease-free seeds. Then soak the seeds in warm water for about 12-24 hours until the seeds absorb water and expand. For relatively small seeds, you can use a toothpick with one end wet with water to take the seeds, and then stick them on the surface of the substrate. The soil covering depth is about 1 cm, and then put the sown flowerpot into water. The depth of water is 1 / 2-2 / 3 of the height of the flowerpot, and let the water slowly soak up. For larger seeds, they can be directly put into the matrix and treated according to 3 × On demand at an interval of 5 cm. The soil covering depth is about 2-3 times that of seed grain. After spraying, the spray can be used to wet the substrate, and then sprinkling water when the basin is dry. At the same time, we should pay attention to controlling the intensity of watering so as not to overpower the general seed. span>
