Huahua has introduced many cutting methods before, but many flower friends still ask, Huahua, why are none of my bougainvillea cuttings alive? Huahua, why did I cut dozens of trees, but only one survived? For those flower lovers who have difficulty taking cuttings, Huahua today provides you with another propagation method that is faster than rooting by cuttings - layering propagation!

Ordinary layering of osmanthus

Ordinary layering is the simplest layering method. It is suitable for flowers whose branches can be bent. This method can be used for ordinary flowers.

Operation steps:

1. Choose a strong branch with many branches, and gently girdle a wound of about 0.5-1cm wide at 1/2-2/3 of the branch.

2. Bend the branches and place them directly into the soil . Be careful when bending to avoid breaking the branch with sudden force. (If any flower lovers want a simpler method, they can also bend the branches directly into another prepared flower pot, so that the branches after taking root do not need to be transplanted.)

3. Dig a hole in the soil and bury the girded branch with the wound. In the soil.

4. After the girdling wound is buried in the soil, it can be Press a brick on top to prevent the branches from rising.

5. If you really can’t find bricks at home, you can also Make a U-shape with wire and insert it into the soil with the opening facing downwards to prevent the branches from rising.

6. Pay attention to watering regularly to ensure that the soil is moist. Using this layering method, roots will take root in about 15-20 days. Because the branches have not yet separated from the mother body at this time, the nutrients are still sufficient, and rooting will take place very quickly. After taking root, cut the branches directly and put them in pots.

Jasmine one branch multiple pressure method

Sometimes when we are layering, we choose relatively long branches. At this time, we can use the one-branch multi-pressing method. Today, Huahua will take jasmine as an example.

Operation steps:

1. Select a strong long jasmine branch and girdle it 180 degrees, that is, only girdle each node 180 degrees, leaving half of the skin.

2. Because the selected jasmine branches are relatively long, you can Girdle nodes 1, 3, 5, and 7 on the branches as rooting points, while leaving nodes 2, 4, 6, and 8 as growth points for new branches. If the branches are long enough, a few more nodes can be left between the girdling nodes, which is conducive to the rapid growth of new branches.

3. Prepare a few plastic bottles and cut the upper parts Fall off, leaving only the bottom part. Poke a small hole in the bottom of a plastic bottle, then put it on the jasmine branch. Then add sand, peat soil and other soil into the plastic bottle. Make sure that the girdling wound of jasmine is buried by the soil. Then build a shelf and tie the plastic bottles and the shelf together with tape to prevent the branches from falling over.

4. In about 2 months, layered jasmine The root system of white flowers will grow.

5. Cut the jasmine branches and they will immediately become I got 4 small jasmine plants. Is it simpler than cutting?

Bougainvillea high-altitude layering

High-altitude Layering is suitable for some flowers whose branches are not easy to bend, such as osmanthus, camellia, magnolia, etc. Today, Huahua takes Bougainvillea as an example to talk about how to carry out high-altitude layering.

Operation steps:

1. Select the strong branches of the current year from the bougainvillea, and then girdle the bougainvillea branches that need to be layered. The width is about 0.5-1cm. Be sure to remove the cambium layer of the branches (that is, the layer of green skin) Shave clean.

2. Dip a cotton swab into some rooting powder and apply it on On the wound caused by girdling.

3. Prepare a piece of toilet paper or paper towel and fold it slightly in half Once, wrap it around the wound of Bougainvillea.

4. After wrapping the wound with toilet paper, use a small watering can to Spray water on a paper towel and thoroughly soak it, then wrap it in a layer of plastic wrap or a plastic bag to keep it moisturized. Then use a thin thread to tie the upper end of the plastic bag firmly, but not too tightly the lower end, so that the roots can come out directly from the lower end.

5. Finally, wrap a layer of plastic wrap on the outside Newspaper to achieve the purpose of shading. Branches in a dark environment can stimulate cell division and growth. After girdling, all the nutrients of the branches are concentrated in the wound, which can make the branches take root faster.

6. After an interval of 3-5 days, you have to Spray water on the paper towel once so that the paper towel does not lack water, otherwise it will affect the rooting of the bougainvillea. It only takes about 20-30 days for the bougainvillea branches to take root.

7. Cut off the rooted branches directly. Serve it on the basin with paper towels. After high-altitude layering operation, you can get a new bougainvillea potted plant!

Rose layering method

Operation steps :

1. If you want to propagate roses by layering, it is best to girdle the branches of the current year. The girdling wound will be about 1cm.

2. Find a plastic bottle and cut off the mouth of the bottle , then cut two holes on both sides of the bottle wall to allow the branches to pass through the bottle, and finally poke a few small holes in the bottom of the bottle to ensure there are drainage holes.

3. Fill the plastic bottle with the soil needed for cuttings , and then stuff the branches into the slits cut in the bottle. The girdling part of the rose branches must be included in the bottle. Cover it with soil and water it once. In about 15 days, you can see the layered rose taking root.

4. After taking root, shorten the branches and plant them directly. Just put it in the basin. Just cut the plastic bottle directly before placing it in the pot.
