How do winter beauties breed?

Succulent winter beauty is a cross-genus hybrid of windmill and thick-leaf grass, just like its name, graceful and graceful, pink and tender, very beautiful. Deeply loved by succulent lovers. In the process of maintenance, how should winter beauty breed? Beginners, let's study together.

I. the method of leaf cutting propagation

1. Leaf selection

First of all, you need to choose a relatively healthy, pest-free and relatively full-looking leaf from a mature winter beauty. After the selection, do not take it off hard, slowly hold the root of the leaf and gently shake it from side to side. In this way, the damage to the plant can be reduced as much as possible, and the leaves can be taken off completely.

two。 Soil selection

The succulent soil is still relatively strict. Winter beauty is very drought-resistant, it likes loose soil, drainage and air permeability should also meet the standard, generally choose peat, perlite and cinder mixed according to the uniform proportion. In order to prevent the picked leaves from coming into direct contact with the surface of the soil, it is necessary to cover the top with a layer of granular sand or pumice, which also has the advantage of increasing the overall air permeability.

3. Laying leaves

Ready for the above steps, the last step is to spread the picked leaves on the soil, and then the leaves will slowly grow small roots and leaves, and finally become an independent small plant, is it very easy?

2. Cutting propagation

Branch cutting method:

1. the method of branch insertion is similar to that of leaf cutting. cut off the top branches of the plant with sharp scissors on the mother plant.

2. Then leave the cut branches in a cool and dry place for 2-3 days.

3. After the wound is dried, insert the potted soil and keep the soil semi-dry after insertion. Don't put it in the sun, just put it in a bright place. If the weather is warm, it can take root and sprout in a week.
