Bauhinia cutting is the best choice in the early summer growth season, when the temperature is also suitable, the humidity in the air is also large, which is conducive to its survival. In addition to summer, it can also be selected before the leaves grow in early spring. At this time, the growth momentum is good, and it is also conducive to the later growth recovery. One or two-year-old branches were cut as cuttings, which were inserted into the porous matrix, and the rooting speed was faster.

A few months

Bauhinia trees at 15-20 ℃ and humidity at 80-90%. At this time, the activity is the highest. It's best to choose the growth season in early summer. At this time, the temperature is just right, and it's not likely to be sultry for a long time and lead to decay. The humidity in the air is also large, which is conducive to its survival. In addition to summer, you can also choose in early spring before the long leaves, at this time the growth momentum is good, but also conducive to later growth recovery.

2. Cutting method

1. Branches: cut the one or two-year-old branches as cuttings. It's better to be robust. The length is not too long. It can be kept at about 10cm. The lower part should be cut obliquely to increase the absorption area. The leaves close to the lower part should be removed. It can't be left on the top to prevent rot.

2. Matrix: the matrix should ensure ventilation and drainage. Vermiculite and river sand are the best. The two matrices take root the fastest, keep the matrix pure, and sterilize under the sun before use.

Substrate

3. Cutting: put the branches in the sand bed in the semi shade environment, and apply sufficient water at the beginning to ensure the water is fully poured, and spray water when the humidity is low in the later stage to keep wet. Keep the surrounding temperature between 20 - 25 ℃, which is good for rooting.
