How to breed (leaf insertion method) hybrid varieties of Xingmei people

Since the star beauty wants the stars, it must be that the stars twinkle all over the sky in order to better show the artistic conception of the star beauty. Therefore, a large number of reproduction is very necessary, and leaf insertion is the most simple and easy to operate in the mode of reproduction, which is something that all succulent growers cannot refuse.

How do star beauties reproduce?

1. Season selection

Spring and summer is a good season for leaf planting. Star beauty is full of vitality in spring and takes root quickly after the leaves are inserted. Although it is high in summer, the survival rate of leaf insertion is also very high.

2. Leaf treatment

Select the complete and healthy leaves of Xingmei, pick them, leave them in a cool place to dry for a few days, dry them into the sand, and keep the basin soil moist.

3. Watering skills

Xingmei leaves only need to pot the soil with a slight tide, in fact, you don't have to water them. But watering is also OK, want a small amount, and cannot pour on the leaf, lest melt water rot.

4. Good ventilation

The leaf insertion of Xingmei must be carried out in a well-ventilated environment. The leaves are taken off and are in a state of looking for a growth base, which requires a good growth space. It is not well ventilated, hot and humid, and the leaves rot easily.

Hybrid varieties of Xingmei

1. Star Beauty + Guanghan Palace = Frost Dynasty

Frost Dynasty is a hybrid between Xingmei and Guanghan Palace. Like warm, adequate light, dry and ventilated environment, more drought-resistant, not cold-resistant, strong adaptability. The leaves show a thick layer of white powder. This thick layer of white powder perfectly inherits the advantages of Le Xing beauty.

2. Star Beauty + Flower Moon Night = King Midas

King Midas has several remarkable characteristics. The first is that it can grow a head and is easy to form an old pile. In addition, the formation of the old pile can be accelerated by picking the leaves at the bottom.

In addition, the variety of King Midas is particularly easy to falsify, either by leaf insertion or by natural variation.

3. Star Beauty + Lindsay = Perfume

The perfume is called Inada Ji in Japan, but it is not the same variety as Inada Ji in China. Perfume, also known as New Perfume, Elaine, is the perfect combination of Lindsay and Star Beauty. It has the delicacy of star beauty, the compactness of Lindsay and the lovely shape of the plant.

4. Star Beauty + quiet Night = Miller

This breed of Xingmei is a rare hybrid parent, which can not only fully reflect the advantages of the female parent, but also the characteristics of the male parent. Miller's form is the complete embodiment of Xingmei and quiet Night.

5. Star beauty + thousand bergamot = ray candy

I did not expect that the hybrid between Star Beauty and Thousand bergamot has such a beautiful and sweet name, commonly known as Candy Beauty. Slightly larger, the leaves are shaped like fruit candy, which makes people feel a little sweet.

6. Star Beauty + Daiwa Jin = Pula

Pula is a literal translation of Italian. Pula's body, the characteristics of Xingmei is not very obvious, can only show that Daiwa Jin gene is strong!

7. Star Beauty + Chrysanthemum Day and = Anita

The cross between Xingmei and Chrysanthemum Rihe is that Chrysanthemum has the upper hand in color, while the leaf shape is neck and neck.

Maintenance skills of Xingmei in winter and summer

First, the maintenance skills of Star Beauty in winter

Star beauty requires cold in winter, it is best to maintain a room temperature of about 10 ℃, do not need to pour too much water, and keep the basin soil slightly moist. Do not fertilize and give plenty of sunshine.

Although the winter temperature in the south is not so low, the wet and cold weather is very annoying. Flower friends who raise star beauty can try to keep her from frostbite to death.

Second, summer maintenance skills of Xingmei

Summer high temperature for the plant in dormancy or half-body dormancy state, slow growth or complete stagnation, should strengthen ventilation, require bright light, without strong direct sunlight, properly reduce watering, in order to prevent plant rot caused by muggy and humid.

The main value of Star Beauty

1. Watch

Xingmei is a classic variety of succulent plants in Sedum family, with round and lovely fleshy leaves and simple, clean and elegant colors. On the other hand, the leaves of young plants produced by leaf cutting are arranged compactly, like beaded pebbles. Star beauty often use small pots to plant, decorate desks, several cases, windowsills and other places, like jade carved handicrafts, very strange.

2. Embellishment

After planting, Xingmei can make potted sketches, such as decorating the potted surface with rocks, and lying stones with "tall trees" can reflect the "tall trees". Stone static tree movement, static and dynamic, dynamic and static combination; stone rigid tree soft, rigid and soft, both rigid and soft. However, after matching the stone, the left side of the base appears more empty, so the small plants of star beauty are planted on the left side to achieve the purpose of filling the void, making the bonsai more compact and plump, and improving the ornamental effect.

Xingmei's leaf insertion method is very simple, choose the appropriate reality, and then select the leaves, dry them and then put them into the sand to ensure ventilation, so as to improve the success rate of leaf insertion. I hope everyone can harvest beautiful stars all over the sky.
