It is actually a kind of Chlorophytum, its appearance is similar to that of Chlorophytum, but its name sounds relatively strange. That's because the color on the edge of its leaves is white, so it gets the name. Do you know how to breed it? Let's study together.

I. Cuttage Propagation

1. Prepare the insert

Let's cut some stems and leaves from its stolon first, then let the wound dry a little, and then we can go to the cutting.

2. Cutting

After the cuttings are cut, we can start cutting. The specific time is generally from spring to autumn. It can be carried out at any time during this period, which is very easy to survive. When cutting, we can insert the cuttings directly into the flowerpot. Pay attention that the cuttings should not be too deep, otherwise it is easy to rot. After cutting it, we need to water it, and we need to water it thoroughly once more, and then we can put it in a cool place for maintenance

2. Branch propagation

First, we take the plant out of the basin, remove the old soil and bad roots on it, then cut the old roots on it once, and leave three stems on the separated plants, then we can transplant them separately. In addition to cutting the old root, we can also plant its stem and leaf directly in a flowerpot.

3. Sowing and breeding

1. Seed acquisition

After its fruit ripens every year, we can pick it off, dry it a little, and then we can take out the seeds inside, and then store the seeds until next year.

2. Sowing

It usually starts to sow in March every year, because its seed particles are not very large, so after it is planted in the soil, it does not need to cover the soil too thick, generally only 0.5cm thick. Then keep the temperature around 15 ℃, the seeds will germinate after 2 weeks.

3. Maintenance after sowing

After its seeds sprout, we can't let them receive too strong sunlight, just a little light, otherwise the light is too strong, it will burn the buds. Then we need to slowly give it water, remember that the amount of each time can not be too much, as long as the soil is slightly wet, soon the buds will grow into seedlings, and after these seedlings are formed, they can be transplanted and cultured separately.
