How to make crab claw orchid grafted on cactus
Whenever I hear that "safflower needs green leaves", the first thing that comes to mind must be crab claw orchid. The leaves are green and open like the claws of a crab, while the flowers grow horizontally on the top of the crab claws, bright red and colorful, and seem to be specially dressed for the festival, because it is in full bloom between Christmas and Spring Festival.
"Crab claw orchid is one of my favorite flowers. It is very festive and easy to survive at the same time." A flower friend of the urban farmers group told the reporter, "however, the really beautiful crab claw orchid is grafted with the cactus." The plant of crab claw orchid is smaller, and after grafting with cactus, it can be molded into a large plant, or even an umbrella-shaped plant, which is more ornamental.
Materials: potted cactus, crab claw orchid
Tools: blades
1. The green, robust, pest-free crab claw orchid mother plant was selected, and the top 2-4 annual branches were cut as scions (a general term for buds, branches and other meristems grafted on rootstocks in plant grafting operation). Then cut off about 1/4 from the bottom with a blade to expose the white xylem.
two。 Then cut the scion into a wedge. When cutting, it is best to cut it with one knife, and do not repeat the cutting.
3. The robust cactus with length above 10cm was selected as the rootstock (the plant that bears the scion during grafting propagation). And flatten the top of the cactus and insert it down slightly from the middle with the blade to a depth of about 2mi 3cm. Form a V-shaped opening, and then immediately insert the cut scion into the V-shaped opening of the rootstock.
4. When grafting, gently pinch the cut of the rootstock with your hand, make it clamp the scion, and glue the two parts tightly. In order to prevent the scion from slipping out of the interface, it can be fixed with cactus thorns.
5. According to the height of cactus, the grafting method is the same.
Tips:
1. The crab claw orchid can be grafted at the temperature of 10-30 ℃ except in the severe cold and hot season.

two。 The grafted rootstock of crab claw orchid can use cactus, cactus, measuring column and other plants.
