The branch of longevity flower is best planted in summer and autumn, when the branch and bud of longevity flower are luxuriant.
Choose healthy and harmless mother plants to cut branches as cutting branches.
When cutting the cuttings on the mother plant, the cuttings should be cut about 1 cm above the axillary buds.
After cutting, do not cut immediately, but also deal with the cuttings:
First soak in water for about an hour, then take out the cuttings, put them in the air to dry, and then cut them after they are dry.
When choosing cutting media, you need mud, nutritious soil, sand and other media. Pay attention to keep the humidity of the media.
When you are ready, you can directly insert the cuttings into the substrate, and then the soil can be buried to 1 /3 of the branches.
First of all, when the cuttings are finished, pay attention to spray nutrient solution on the branches on time, which is helpful for the growth of cuttings. The nutrient solution can be a mixture of 0-2% potassium dihydrogen phosphate and sucrose.
Spraying time period is basically 3 to 4 weeks later, spraying every other month.
Next is watering: for the long-lived flower's branch, because its plant itself contains high moisture, so watering is not frequent, in order to avoid causing the branch's decay, stop growing, watering only needs 3 days to water once.
Finally, pay attention to cold insulation: because the branches and leaves are few, so we must pay attention to the insulation work, and put it in a place with good light and suitable temperature.
