How does the money tree reproduce? How to raise it in winter?

In fact, the popular money tree has another name-Citrotaro. In fact, in addition to buying adult trees directly from the flower market, they can also help money trees breed, so how do money trees reproduce? In addition, how to raise it in winter so as not to die?

First, how does the money tree reproduce?

Usually money trees can be propagated by "ramet" and "cuttage". Let's take a look at the specific operation.

1. Branch propagation of Artemisia angustifolia

(1) ramet time

When the average daily temperature can be maintained at about 20 degrees Celsius, the sunny day is better, which is more conducive to the survival of the ramet.

(2) ramet method

Select a larger, more branched healthy plant in a pot of money tree, take out the roots, clean up the soil, and then use a knife to split into two or three from the weakest part of the tuber where the leaves are relatively uniform (pay attention to no more than three ramids).

When ramet, the wound needs to be smeared with sulfur powder or carbendazim, potassium permanganate, plant ash and so on for disinfection and sterilization.

2. Cutting propagation of Artemisia angustifolia

(1) cutting time

Ramet propagation is the fastest way to propagate money trees, while cutting propagation is much slower.

It is suitable for cutting in spring, it is necessary to choose strong, thick green mature leaves as cuttings, and the wounds should be disinfected after cutting leaves.

(2) cutting method

Cutting propagation needs to prepare a special cutting substrate, which can be mixed with peat soil, perlite and coarse sand according to the proportion of 3:1:1, and then the sterilized cutting leaves can be inserted into the substrate.

Second, how to raise the money tree in winter?

1. Pay attention to heat preservation

The winter in most parts of our country is relatively cold, which is a big test for the growth of the money tree, because the money tree is not very resistant to low temperature and is prone to frost damage, so if it is an outdoor money tree, it should be moved to indoor or greenhouse. And adjust the temperature to more than 10 degrees Celsius.

2. Pay attention to the light

In general, there is a lack of light in winter, and sometimes there is no sun for more than ten days in a row, so we can supplement the light appropriately.

3. Pay attention to watering

When raising money trees in winter, we must reduce the amount of water and times of watering. Otherwise, it is very easy to cause the roots of the money tree to rot or the plant to wither.

In addition, it is not necessary to fertilize the tree in winter, because fertilization at low temperature is not conducive to absorption on the one hand, and may hurt the roots of the tree on the other.
