The small leaf gardenia is different from the common Gardenia in the leaves. Their leaves are thin and small, but they are also beautiful and lovely. The flowers are white, like fairies flying in the leaves. People who see them like it very much. But how can we get such beautiful flowers? In fact, there are many ways to take a look at a more suitable friend, so let's take a look together and choose one!

Cuttage Propagation

This method is common to all of us, but because the temperature has a great influence on the survival of seedlings, we should choose the time according to the local temperature. Friends living in the north can choose to live in October November. Although the outdoor temperature drops suddenly, there is heating in the north, which can provide a greenhouse, so it is better at this time. The friends who live in the South can choose to do it in April.

The cuttings should be selected for 2 years, and those that are too tender cannot survive. Cut it to about 10cm, and cut off the lower half of the leaves to disinfect it. After the operation, it is better to apply a little rooting powder on the lower part, so that the temperature can be maintained at 20-24 ℃ and the root can be produced in half a month. When the seedlings begin to grow, they can enter the basin, so that they can bloom in another 2 years.

Strip propagation

This method is also common. In April, the disease-free branch with good growth should be selected, but the branch with longer length should be 20-30cm. If there is Trident branch, three seedlings can be obtained at a time. In general, it can take root within one month. If it is well maintained, it can be separated from the mother plant in June, and can be directly planted in the pot in the spring of the next year

Sowing

This method is relatively slow, and it will take at least the third year to bloom after success. Therefore, friends with the first two conditions try to choose the first two methods, especially those who choose potted plants in the north, it is not easy to get seeds, and it will take a year to germinate after planting. The friend that chooses this kind of method should notice, must choose plump a bit seed..

If you sow in spring, you can sow before and after the rain. In this way, the survival probability will be higher. If you choose your friends in autumn, you can choose the time of autumnal equinox, the temperature and other conditions will be more appropriate
