The propagation methods of Oxalis are rameting and sowing. In spring and autumn, the ramets grow more vigorously. Select the plants with better growth, break them into several clumps by hand, dry the wounds in the shade, and put them into sandy soil. Sowing and propagation are only carried out in spring, and the seeds are evenly sprinkled on the soil surface, and can germinate 10-12 days after sowing.

Ramet method

First, select the plants with good growth, that is, the rhizome has many small branches, take them out of the basin, do not remove the soil at the root.

Break the plant into several clumps by hand, and determine the size of the clumps according to the bud eyes on the rhizome. Generally, more than 3 bud eyes are reserved for each clump. If there are many leaves, they can be removed directly.

After drying the wound in the shade, put the divided plants into the sandy soil, keep the temperature at 13 ~ 18 ℃, and they will soon take root and grow leaves. (Oxalis has a strong germinating power and will soon form leafy plants.)

Sowing method

The seeds of Oxalis are smaller, so they should be sown indoors.

First, prepare a flowerpot with a larger diameter (instead of a foam box). Sprinkle the seeds evenly on the soil table and cover the soil with 1~2 cm.

A layer of plastic film is placed on the back cover of the sowing to ensure the humidity in the basin.

It can germinate 10-12 days after sowing, and can be transplanted into a flowerpot after growing seedlings. 3-5 plants can be planted in a flowerpot.
