Long life cutting propagation

The cutting propagation of longevity flower is mostly carried out in summer and autumn. At this time, the light and temperature can ensure its better rooting and survival. Cutting propagation can be carried out by using the branches trimmed after flowering; Blade insertion can also be carried out

When cutting branches, it is necessary to select healthy branches and cut them for about 5-10cm. The trimmed branches also need to retain five branches, and then cut off the leaves of the lower two branches. After the cutting mouth is dried, it can be inserted into the matrix for maintenance

When inserting leaves, you need to choose healthy and hypertrophic leaves, cut them and dry them in a cool place. You can insert them in the sand or lay them directly on them to keep the soil moist

The matrix of cutting should be the soil with good drainage and air permeability. River sand can be selected to ensure that the matrix is slightly wet

After cutting, place it in a bright place for about a week, so that the cuttings will gradually produce roots, which is successful

Sowing and propagation of longevity flower

Sowing and propagation can be carried out in spring or autumn after seed harvest. Before sowing, soak the seeds in clear water to promote germination

After the configured soil is disinfected, the seeds can be directly sown on it, sprinkled evenly and covered with soil later. After sowing, you can press it gently with a wooden board, and then put the whole sowing basin in the water to let the soil permeate with water. Then you can cover it with plastic film and put it in a warm and suitable ventilation place to ensure that the soil is wet. Generally, it can germinate in half a month. After germination, peel off the plastic film and expose it to the sun. When it grows to 2-3 leaves, it will start thinning. Transplanting can be carried out when the growth is strong

Note that if you want to use sowing to reproduce, you need artificial pollination when longevity flowers bloom

Tissue culture and propagation of longevity flower

Tissue culture propagation of Changshou flower is not commonly used, which is a complicated propagation method

In tissue culture, the shoot top, leaves, stems, flower buds and flowers of Changshou flower should be used as explants for tissue culture, and then 2 mg / L kinetin and 0.1 mg / L NAA should be added to MS medium to induce its germination and rooting

Then use 1 / 2ms medium and 1 mg / L indole butyric acid to induce rooting, and then put it under light for 16 hours. After 4-6 weeks, small plants can grow

Ramet propagation of longevity flower

The ramet propagation of Changshou flower is best carried out after the old plant has spent the summer

During the period from late August to early September, it is necessary to turn the basin and change the soil. At this time, it is also necessary to pay attention to cutting the large plant clusters into several stumps with a knife, and then planting them separately. After survival, it is also necessary to pick the heart once or twice to promote multiple branches, sprout and blossom

Well, the above is the breeding method of longevity flower. You can try it
