2. Is it easy to take care of?

There are many methods of propagating lilacs. If you want to sow seeds, you need to select seeds with full grains and then sow them. If you want to use cuttings, you can choose semi-lignified branches and insert them into a breathable substrate. If you want to use layering, choose long, strong branches and press them down into the soil. If you want to use divisions, you can break off the small buds on the plants and plant them. If you want to use grafting, select the rootstock and scion and graft through bud grafting.

1. Propagation methods

1. Sowing: There are many methods of propagating lilacs. You can select seeds with full particles, prepare soil, and then sow seeds. If the environment is suitable, they will germinate after a while.

2. Cuttings: If you propagate by cuttings, you must first select the branches. You can choose semi-lignified branches with a length of about 15 cm. The leaves at the bottom should be removed and a few leaves at the top should be retained. leaf. Prepare a breathable substrate, then dip the branches into rooting powder and insert them.

3. Layering: Lilacs can also be layered. The best time for breeding is around February to March in early spring, when the survival rate is relatively high. Select a vigorously growing plant, select a strong long branch from above, press it down into the soil, cover it with soil, keep it moist, and it will take root after a period of time. After taking root, you can plant it separately from the mother plant.

4. Division propagation: Division propagation is also one of the methods. The time can be chosen before budding in early spring, or after the leaves fall when the climate decreases in autumn, take the plants out of the original soil and remove the tops. Break off the small buds and plant them.

5. Grafting: Grafting generally uses bud grafting. Good rootstock and scion, grafted together.

2. Is it easy to raise?

Lilacs are highly adaptable and easy to raise.
