2. Propagation by division

The propagation of Luwei flowers generally uses two methods: sowing and dividing. Sowing is mostly done in autumn and winter when the temperature is 10-20°C. Put the seeds in the refrigerator for two weeks, take them out and put them in a cool place, and wait until the seeds turn white before planting. Use a mixture of peat soil and river sand as a substrate, and scatter the seeds on the surface. Branching occurs mostly in spring. Take the plant out of the pot, separate the small plants, keep the roots and soil, plant it in a new pot, and give it appropriate light.

1. Sowing and propagation

1. Sowing time: The sowing time of Luwei flower is generally at the turn of autumn and winter. The temperature is between 10-20℃. Too high or too low temperature is detrimental to its germination. Of course, due to regional differences, sowing time can be advanced or delayed.

2. Germination treatment: Keep the seeds in the refrigerator for two weeks. Then put it in a cool place at 10-20℃. It is not suitable to receive sunlight at this time. When the seeds appear white, they are ready for sowing.

3. Pot soil preparation: Luwei flowers are suitable for growing in In relatively loose and fertile soil. Peat soil and river sand are generally used as potting soil, and some perlite can also be added. A few pieces of broken tiles need to be placed at the bottom of the flowerpot to improve drainage.

4. Sowing: Sprinkle the seeds of Luwei flower directly on the surface of the pot soil. Place the flowerpot in a cool place, water it thoroughly and wait for it to germinate.

2. Propagation by divisions

1. Division time: The division of Luwei flower should be carried out in spring. Usually before the growth period, this can give it time to recover. At the same time, it is advisable to divide the plants on sunny days to avoid extending the seedling slowing period due to rainy weather.

2. Pot soil preparation: Luwei flowers like slightly acidic soil, and some leaf mold soil can be used to improve the soil quality. At the same time, add some sand to the basin to increase its drainage capacity.

3. Divide the plants: remove the Luwei flowers from the pots Take it out from the pot, first use a wooden stick to knock off a little pot soil, and then separate the small plants and plant them individually. When separated, each plant must have complete roots with soil on them.

4. Follow-up maintenance: After dividing the plants, plant them in new pots. At this time, you can provide appropriate light to help them recover faster. You can also use some drugs to promote flowering.
