How to propagate the latest Pyracantha

Pyracantha is an evergreen small tree, beautiful shape, excellent ornamental, it has a good dust filter role, sulfur dioxide and other toxic gases have a strong resistance and absorption, often planted in the roadside, can also be planted in the courtyard. Its roots, leaves and fruits can be used as medicine. They have the effects of clearing away heat and detoxifying and treating sore and swollen poison. Do you know how it reproduces? Let's take a look at its breeding methods.

1. Seed reproduction

Sowing is the mainstream method of reproduction for most plants. Pyracantha bears fruit every autumn, ripens in winter, and can collect seeds at this time. After its fruit ripens, it will persist until February-March of the following spring. picking fruits before sowing, removing pulp, taking out seeds, washing, drying and waiting for sowing, soaking with low-concentration gibberellin before sowing, planting into soil, covering soil with 3-4cm after sowing, watering to keep soil moist and waiting for seedling emergence.

2. Cutting propagation

Pyracantha can also be used for cuttage propagation, if the method of cuttage to propagate Pyracantha, it is best to choose the 11-3 months this time period, so as to ensure that the survival rate of cuttage in more than 90%, the rest of the time short cuttage survival rate is low. Firstly, a Pyracantha sp. growing for 2-3 years is selected as a mother plant, lignification branches with leaves growing for 1-2 years are selected, the length is 15cm, and the top of the branches is cut into wedges. When cutting, dig a small pit 10cm deep, plant the branches, expose the ground 5 cm, then fill the soil and step on it, then water to keep the soil moist, wait for survival, or smear rooting powder on the cuttings to facilitate rooting.

3, layering propagation

Pyracantha can also be used for layering propagation, layering propagation method is too long, generally not used in production, its propagation time is sufficient, except in winter, the rest of the time can be carried out. Similarly, the plants with strong growth and more than 3 years old are selected as mother plants, and the branches growing close to the ground for 1-2 years are selected for layering. in ord to lose deep roots as soon as possible, that cambium part bury in the soil of the layering is treated by cutting or peel, and then buried in the soil for 10-15cm, and ramets can be formed in about 1-2 years, and then the ramets can be separated from the mother plants by cutting and waiting for transplantation.

The above is how to reproduce the content of Pyracantha, I hope to help you, want to know more about the relevant knowledge, please pay attention to us.
