The latest propagation method of the other shore flower

The other shore flower is a plant of the family Amaryllidaceae, which likes a shady and humid environment and is afraid of bright light. It is suitable for growing in loose and fertile sandy soil. It is widely cultivated all over the world. It is an excellent perennial herbaceous flower. It can be propagated by means of ball division, sowing, scale base cutting and tissue culture. Let's take a look at it.

Ball-dividing propagation

The method of dividing balls is the easiest way to reproduce. The plants are dug up during the dormant period or after flowering, and the epiphytic bulbs near the mother ball are removed and planted, and they can blossom in about one or two years.

Scale cutting method

The base of the cleaned bulb was cut into eight parts in meter shape, and the cutting depth was about the length of the bulb. After disinfection and shade drying, it was inserted into the substrate such as moist sand and perlite. After 3 months, adventitious buds could be seen at the junction of the scale and the base plate, and bulbs were gradually formed, and seedlings could be formed after separation and cultivation.

Tissue culture method

Using MS medium, pedicel and ovary were used as explants. After culture, calli could be produced at the incision. Adventitious roots can be formed after 1 month and adventitious buds can be formed after 3-4 months. Adventitious buds and corms can also be produced by using pedicels and stemmed scales as explants.

Sowing propagation

It is generally only used for cross breeding. As the seed has no dormancy, it should be sown immediately after seed collection, and the radicle can be seen after 15 days at 20 ℃. When sowing in the natural environment, only a few seedlings pull out a leaf in the first growth cycle, and can be transplanted once in the seedling stage. It takes about 4 to 5 years from sowing to flowering.
