1、 Sowing and propagation

1. Sowing time: iron chopsticks should be sown at a suitable time. It can be sown in summer and autumn, or stored until spring. It is suitable for sowing and reproduction in terms of growth and climate, and the survival rate is relatively high

2. Collect seeds: collect seeds before sowing with iron chopsticks. You can buy good seeds directly from the seed shop or produce seeds by artificial pollination.

After preparing the seedbed, you can spray disinfectant to sterilize and remove the bacteria and insect eggs inside

4. Sowing seeds: after the seedbed is treated, the seeds can be sown, and then covered with soil to promote seed germination

2、 Ramet propagation

1. Time selection: the breeding of iron chopsticks can be selected around October every year. At this time, the climate is cool and suitable, and it is in a growing state, which is just conducive to ramet breeding

2. Plant separation: take the iron chopsticks plant out of the flower pot, then prepare a sharp knife, cut it from the base and divide it into several small plants. Each plant should retain 2-3 flower buds
