How to choose the seeds of Bauhinia? What are the methods of raising seedlings?

Bauhinia flowers, also known as Bauhinia, Bauhinia, red, etc., bloom in spring, Corolla such as butterflies, pink clusters are very good-looking, but also blooming on the tree trunk, so the name Bauhinia. If you want to plant bauhinia seeds, how to choose? What are the methods of raising seedlings? Let's learn about it.

How to choose the seeds of Bauhinia?

Bauhinia seeds should choose seeds with full particles, high glossiness, insect-free eyes and high quality. In addition, we should also pay attention to the purchase channels, you can go to the local seed shop, flower and seedling market and other purchases, pay attention to the selection of high-quality businesses, the quality is more guaranteed. The market price of Bauhinia seed is about 50 yuan per jin, and the price is not very high, but some Bauhinia seeds are sold at a low price on the market, with poor quality and low germination rate after sowing, so we must not choose seeds that are too low in price.

What are the breeding methods of Bauhinia chinensis?

1. Sowing seeds

The sowing time is generally chosen in spring. Before sowing, the seeds should be treated with low temperature stratification for more than 2 months, and they can germinate 30 days after sowing. If the seeds are soaked in warm water for 1 day before sowing, the germination effect will be better.

2. Transplanting

The best transplanting time of Bauhinia is from November to December after defoliation in winter and before germination from February to April in the next year. Larger plants should be transplanted with soil balls to facilitate survival. If transplanting at flowering stage, some flowers need to be removed in order to avoid consuming too much nutrients and affecting survival. When planting to ensure that the soil ball is not loose, each hole to apply rotten compost or barnyard manure 10-15 kg, immediately after planting water thoroughly, in order to ensure survival.

3. Fertilization

Mature organic fertilizer is applied once a year in early spring, summer and autumn to promote flowering and flower bud formation. After each fertilization, it is necessary to water thoroughly to facilitate root absorption.

4. Pruning

Bauhinia is resistant to pruning, cutting off disease and insect branches, cross branches and overlapping branches in time from defoliation in winter to sprouting in spring, so as to maintain the beauty of the tree. As the old branches of Bauhinia can also blossom, so when pruning, do not cut the old branches too much, so as to avoid affecting the amount of flowers. The sprouting power of Bauhinia is also very strong, especially at the base, it is easy to sprout tillering buds. These buds should be cut off in time to maintain the beauty of the tree and avoid consuming too much nutrients. If there is no need to leave seeds after flowering, the pods can be removed in order to avoid consuming too much nutrients, which is harmful to growth.

5. Pest control

The main pests of Bauhinia are striped bugs, cotton aphids, green thorns on the brown edge, Spodoptera litura, white eyebrow moths and so on. If it occurs, it can be killed by spraying 48% Lexben EC in the nymph stage; if cotton aphid occurs, stone-sulfur mixture can be sprayed in early spring; if there are green diamondback moth, green diamondback moth and white eyebrow moth, Bt emulsion or 1000 times nicotine EC can be used to kill them in the larval stage.

The main diseases of Bauhinia are bauhinia horn spot, bauhinia shoot blight and bauhinia coal pollution. Bauhinia spot disease can be sprayed with 75% Dakening wettable granule 800 times solution for control; Bauhinia blight can be controlled with 75% chlorothalonil wettable granule 700 times liquid; Bauhinia coal pollution control should be timely kill aphids and shell insects, strengthen pruning, adhere to ventilation and light, a small number of occurrence can be scrubbed with a clean dishcloth.

The above is about the Bauhinia seeds and seedling methods introduced, Bauhinia has a great use, flowers can be ornamental, bark can be used as medicine, wood can be used for furniture, construction, etc., has a good planting prospect. Do you have anything to add about the bauhinia?
