Amaryllis is a flower that can still bloom in winter. Its flowers are bright red, which makes it very festive to keep at home during the New Year. In addition, another major feature of Amaryllis is that it is very easy to reproduce. Buying one pot is almost equivalent to buying 10 Now that it’s in a pot, Huahua will introduce to you three methods of propagating amaryllis. Once you learn it, you will be able to add several pots of amaryllis to your home!

1. Cutting method

Many times we use cutting method when propagating plants and flowers, and this method can also be used for natural amaryllis. Amaryllis is a bulb plant. Naturally, we also need to use bulbs to help when propagating by cuttings.

After the large potted amaryllis grows for a period of time, a seed bulb will appear. We can transplant it and plant it in the soil of a new pot to become a new potted plant. Because the bulbs have a shallow root system, they do not need to be too deep when planting cuttings. We gently bury them in nutrient-rich and breathable soil, then water them thoroughly for fermentation, and the bulbs will slowly grow. Small buds have grown.

2. Sowing method

Remove The cutting method is used to propagate potted plants, and the most common method is probably the sowing method. Amaryllis is propagated by sowing. Generally, seeds are obtained in pots. After the amaryllis blooms and is pollinated, it will split open and contain seeds, and these seeds can be planted into potted plants.

When we sow seeds, we can germinate the seeds first, that is, wrap the seeds in moist toilet paper, so that the original seeds will grow buds after leaving them for a period of time. When we plant the germinated seeds into the soil, the speed at which they will take root and germinate will be greatly improved. In this way, the propagation of the new amaryllis potted plants will be completed.

3. Division method

Propagating amaryllis by dividing the plants is actually the more difficult of the three methods. We have to be extra careful when dividing the plants, because it is usually necessary to separate the bulbs from the mother plant before planting the bulbs in the soil. Among them, some bulbs will have tiny roots, and we need to ensure that they are not damaged.

When propagating amaryllis ramets, we should pay attention to the middle spacing, so as not to cause crowded growth, and when we plant the bulbs, it is best to expose them outside, so that the roots of amaryllis can be Breathe better to absorb nutrients.
