The best pollination time is 8-10 in the morning.
Sterilize Xiaokai brush with ethanol and dry it. It's better to have a few pots of Strelitzia for pollination.
After Hewang orchid is in full bloom, we should first separate the bright blue inner petals on both sides from the center, then dip the mature pollen in the middle onto the brush with a small regular script brush, and then pollinate to the narrow and long stigma at the tip, two for each inflorescence.
After the interval of 2-3 days, pollination was repeated again.
In addition, we can use cross pollination or self pollination when pollinating. But the seed setting rate of cross pollination is higher than that of self pollination, so Xiaobian recommends that after cross pollination, only seeds will mature in 80-100 days, and then seeds can be collected.
It is the most suitable time for seed collection that the apex of the shell is just cracked. After seed collection, we need to expose the fruit to the sun for seed threshing and timely sowing after threshing. The seeds of Strelitzia are not suitable for preservation ~
