How to plant Taxus mairei

1. Seed treatment

First of all, we need to collect the seed around November, then wash the seed coat, and then bury it. In summer, we have to turn its seed twice a month.

2. Requirements of seedling bed

The nursery bed chosen for it needs to be slightly acidic, in addition to meet the excellent conditions of leeward and drainage. In general, the nursery bed needs to be one meter wide, while the width of the ditch needs to be four centimeters wide. In addition, it needs to be inserted into a steel plate. Before planting, we need to turn the bed soil, and then add some disinfectant to it to kill the disease and insect.

3. The method of sowing

Take out the prepared seeds and gently sow them into the ditch. Pay attention to the distance between the seeds should not be too close, otherwise the seedlings will be difficult to develop normally because of the competition for growth space. Then cover it with a layer of soil, and then pour enough water. Finally, you need to cover a layer of plastic film to keep warm and moisturizing.

4. Post-care

Generally speaking, the time of emergence is about 40 days. At this time, we have to remove all the plastic film that should be covered on the seedbed, and then build a sunscreen on it to ensure that the sun does not shine on it directly. In addition, we have to add some water to the seedbed to keep it moist. If it rains, we should cover it with a film to prevent excessive moisture.

We need to fertilize and water it during its seedling period, usually every ten days. It can be transplanted around April, and the transplanted soil should still be slightly sour. In addition, we have to do our usual management work well so that it can grow healthily.
