1. Sowing and reproduction

2. Split-ball propagation

There are two methods of propagating tulips, namely seed propagation and bulb propagation. Sowing is usually carried out in autumn. The seed bulbs are buried in loose and fertile soil, then watered appropriately and wait for them to take root. Bulb propagation is mostly carried out in June. After taking the plant out of the pot, separate the bulbs and bury them in the soil. If the flower pot is relatively large, you can bury multiple bulbs and pay attention to cold protection.

1. Sowing and propagation

1. Pilling and preservation: Tulips are bulbous plants. After flowering, the above-ground parts will gradually wither. Afterwards, the bulbs need to be taken out to dry and stored in a low temperature environment. .

2. Sowing in autumn: Tulip bulbs are usually planted in autumn Sow seeds in September-October. Too early or too late is not conducive to the growth of the plant and affects its rooting.

3. Prepare the soil: In order for the bulbs to grow better, you need to prepare loose and fertile soil. Generally, garden soil or leaf mold soil will suffice. You can add an appropriate amount of sand to increase its drainage.

4. Planting: Dig a hole on the soil surface. Bury the seed bulb inside, and the depth of the burying depends on its size. Small ones can be buried at 15 centimeters, and large ones can be buried at 20 centimeters.

2. Bulb propagation

1. Tulip bulbing time: Tulip bulbing is usually carried out in June. At this time, the plants have finished blooming, the above-ground parts are gradually withering, and the bulbs are planted. Enters a dormant state, suitable for separating side balls.

2. Pilling separation: Separate the tulip bulbs from Take it out of the soil and separate the small balls on both sides of it. Be careful not to hurt the cue ball or sub-balls when dividing the balls, otherwise it will affect their development.

3. Plant in pots: Bury the separated balls in the soil. If the pot is large enough, you can bury more than one, but keep a certain distance. After burying, water some water and do a good job of protecting it from the cold.
