However, the rootstock generally uses Ligustrum lucidum, Ligustrum lucidum, Ligustrum lucidum, water wax, white wax and tassel. If it is a large number of reproduction, Ligustrum lucidum is often used, and its survival rate is relatively high. Moreover, after grafting, the seedlings grow very fast, but their life span is relatively short. Using wax as rootstock, it grows slowly, but has a long life. Use tassel as rootstock, it's better to rely on it in the growing season of red back osmanthus, don't choose rainy days
The most suitable grafting time is before germination in spring.
Cut the rootstock from 5cm above the ground, select the branches with thick growth for 1-2 years of Hongbei GUI, cut 10-12cm, cut the base into about 2cm cutting surface, and cut a small slope on the opposite side. Then cut it vertically about a third of the way to the side of the stock, 2-3cm deep. Then you can insert the scion into the incision, then bind it with plastic bags, bury it in the soil, and carry out cultivation management.
The red back osmanthus of potted plant is generally adopted to rely on grafting. When selecting rootstock and scion, the thickness of its branches should be similar. Select a suitable part, cut a shuttle shaped incision about 32cm long on the scion, the depth should be to the xylem, similarly, the rootstock should also be treated in this way, the height and size of the incision should be the same as that of the scion, then lean the two incisions together, bind them with a plastic bag, tie them tightly, and cut the rootstock and scion above and below the interface after the wound is healed.
