Dragon boat flower is a very common flower in the south of China. It has a very high ornamental value and a large number of varieties, which is suitable for pot culture. And the rhizome of the dragon boat flower can also be used as medicine, with various effects such as dispersing blood stasis and hemostasis, regulating menstruation and reducing blood pressure. When planting dragon boat flowers, the propagation method is very important, of which cutting is the main method. So how to cut the dragon boat flower? Let's take a look at the cutting method of Dragon Boat Flower with Xiaobian.

1. Factors affecting rooting of cuttings.

When we are cutting dragon boat flower, we should first understand the factors that affect the rooting of dragon boat flower cuttings. The suitable seedling bed temperature for dragon boat flower cuttings is about 30 degrees, and the temperature should be controlled at about 24 degrees. Therefore, it is best to cuttage in late spring and summer. Usually, natural light can meet the light needs of cuttings for rooting. However, in the environment of high temperature and strong light in summer, cuttings are easy to wilt. Therefore, it is best to spray seedlings and do a good job of shading after cutting. It is best to keep the shading rate at about 60%, then gradually reduce it to 45%, and finally remove the shade after taking root.

2. Cutting cuttings

The quality of cuttings has a great effect on the growth ability of seedlings. Therefore, we have to choose good cuttings, plants will draw out more shoots in spring and summer, when the shoots grow to about 10 cm and have not yet flowered. Should be carried out in the evening on a sunny day, to ensure that the cuttings are free of diseases and insect pests, wounds and robust, the same size. The weight is controlled at about 4G and the length is kept in the range of 11-13 cm. Branches should not be too tender, should be in a semi-hardened state, usually dominated by lateral branches, but also can choose the main branches during strong pruning.

3. Cuttings treatment

There are many varieties of dragon boat flower, and the rooting rate of different varieties will be different. Usually if it is a dwarf variety with leaflets, it is easier to take root. Therefore, this variety can take root faster without treatment. On the contrary, if the cutting variety is a large leaf type, then it is more difficult to grow. Therefore, we should use indolebutyric acid and other rooting agents to treat cuttings before cutting, which can effectively improve the rooting rate. The treatment is usually soaked with low concentration rooting agent for a long time or instantaneous soaking with high concentration.

4. Matrix selection.

The cutting substrate has a great relationship with the rooting rate of cuttings. The cutting substrate should ensure good water and fertilizer conservation, permeability and cleanliness and free of germs. Generally, perlite, river sand and other materials can be used for preparation. If you only use river sand, although the permeability is strong, but the water and fertilizer conservation is very poor, so we should pay attention to mixed with perlite. After preparing the cutting substrate, it is directly inserted into the substrate, and then watered to keep the substrate moist. The cuttings can take root in about 40 days, and transplant 10 days after rooting.
