Introduction to the common breeding methods of Baizi lotus

Baizi lotus will be dormant in winter, so the maintenance in winter should be paid attention to in the process of artificial planting, so as to avoid death in winter. There are many breeding methods of Baizi lotus. The editor will introduce to you some common breeding methods of Baizi lotus, which can be understood by interested friends.

Baizi lotus

1. Reproduce by dividing balls

The bulb propagation was carried out from March to April, and the balls around the mother ball were removed and planted separately. The soil should not be covered too much, and the top of the bulb should be slightly exposed to the soil surface. The propagation of this method takes 2 years to blossom.

2. Propagation by dividing bulbs.

The propagation of segmented bulbs is generally carried out from July to August. First, the bulb is cut into several pieces longitudinally, and then it is divided according to the scales. the outer layer takes 2 scales as a unit and the inner layer takes 3 scales as a unit, each unit needs to have a partial bulb disc. In this method, if the diameter of the divided bulb is more than 6cm, each bulb can be divided into more than 20 cuttings with two scales and three scales, and the cuttings are obliquely inserted in the substrate (the pH value is preferably about 8), keeping 2528 ℃ and proper air humidity. After 30 days, 1 and 2 bulbs can be produced between the scales of each cuttings, and there are roots at the base. It takes about 3 years to blossom.

3. Scale cutting propagation

Select well-developed disease-free bulbs, peel off the outer overmature scales, leaving the middle scales with full growth for reproduction, but each scale must have a stem disk. In September, the scales were planted in a sand bed and kept moist at 18 ℃ ~ 20 ℃. In the same year, small bulbs were formed and roots took root at the base. New seedlings will grow on the bulbs in the next spring and need to be cultured for 3 years to become flowering bulbs.

4. reproduction by engraving method

Select the bulb with a circumference of 24cm and 26cm, soak the bulb in 1% cupric sulfate solution for 5 minutes, rinse with water, cut off the bulb 1x3, gently cut the main bud in the center of the bulb with a knife, place it flat on the sand bed, maintain a high air humidity at room temperature, and form several small bulbs between the scales after 2 months.

5. Propagation by sowing method

Because the seeds of Baizi lotus are flat, extremely thin, easy to lose water and lose their germinating power, they should be sown immediately after seed collection. Such as bulb production, cut off the flower stem in time after flowering, so as not to consume the nutrients of the bulb. After the leaves grow, strengthen the fertilization to promote the bulb to enlarge and produce new bulbs. The bulb can be stored for 8 weeks at 13 ℃ and for a long time at 5 ℃.

6. Propagation by tissue culture

MS medium is commonly used, with stem disc, dormant bulb tissue, pedicel and ovary as explants. After tissue culture, calli were produced first, adventitious roots were formed after 30 days, and adventitious buds were formed after 3-4 months.

Perennial root plants, blooming from midsummer to early autumn, dark blue or white, graceful and graceful, with high ornamental value. Morphological characteristics of hundred-seed lotus, perennial herbs of the family Liliaceae. There are rhizomes; leaves linear-lanceolate, subleathery; flowering stems erect, up to 60 cm high; umbels, with 10 ~ 50 flowers, funnel-shaped, dark blue or white, anthers initially yellow and then black; flowering from July to August. It is native to South Africa and is cultivated all over China. To propagate by sowing or dividing plants. Like warmth, moisture and plenty of sunshine. Potted soil should be loose, drained and breathable, and humus soil or peat soil can be used. Pay attention to keep the basin soil moist during the growing season and apply fertilizer every 2 weeks or so. During the relative dormant period, the basin soil should be kept slightly dry in winter, and the overwintering temperature should not be lower than 8 ℃. The north needs greenhouses to survive the winter. Gardens can be planted in warm areas. There are white flowers and mosaic varieties. The ecological habits of Baizi lotus like warm, moist and sunny environment. It is required to be cool in summer and warm in winter. The temperature is 20: 25 ℃ from May to October and 5: 12 ℃ from November to April. If the soil moisture is high in winter and the temperature exceeds 25 ℃, the stems and leaves will grow vigorously and hinder dormancy, which will directly affect the normal flowering in the following year. Light also has a certain effect on growth and flowering, avoiding strong light for a long time in summer and sufficient sunshine for cultivation in winter. The soil requires loose and fertile sandy loam, pH is 5.5-6.5, do not accumulate water. The cultivation techniques of Baizi lotus should use 3 parts of garden soil, 1 part of rice chaff ash and 1 part of compost. Maintenance should be placed in a semi-shady and humid place. From June to September, we should pay attention not to let the scorching sun shine directly, so as not to burn the leaves. Watering is moist, wet between dry and dry, especially in summer to ensure adequate moisture, and often spray water in the plant and the surrounding environment to humidify and cool down. The day before fertilization, watering should be suspended to make the basin soil collect water; after fertilization, the leaves should be sprayed with clean water, and the fertilizer should be used alternately with manure, cake fertilizer and chemical compound fertilizer, once every 15 days. For ramet seedlings, sufficient fertilizer and water should be given to make them blossom early. After blooming, you should pick the flowers and apply fertilizer in time. Stop fertilizing after October, and move to the indoor wet place when the temperature drops to 1 ℃ 2 ℃, and keep it above 0 ℃ to survive the winter. at this stage, we should pay attention to control watering and keep the basin soil slightly moist, not more watering. Like fat and water, but do not accumulate water in the basin, otherwise the root is easy to rot. Fertilizing once every two weeks and applying phosphate fertilizer before flowering can make the flowers bloom luxuriantly and their colors are bright. The growth slows down after flowering and enters a semi-dormant state. Watering should be strictly controlled and should be dry rather than wet. The mode of propagation of Baizi lotus is commonly used in ramet and sowing propagation. Ramet, in combination with changing pots from March to April in spring, the over-dense old plants should be separated, and it is appropriate to have 3 clumps of 2 Murray in each pot. It blossoms the following year after the ramet, such as the ramet after flowering in autumn, and can also blossom in the following year. Sowing and sprouting about 15 days after sowing, the seedlings grow slowly and need to be cultivated for 4-5 years before flowering. The common harm of leaf spot in the disease control of Baizi lotus can be sprayed with 1000 times of methyl topiramate wettable powder. After the occurrence of erythema, leaves, pedicels, petals and bulb scales can be damaged. Leaves and pedicels become curved or deformed with red spots; petals and bulb scales also have brown spots after infection, and the disease becomes soft and sunken in the later stage. Heavily injured pedicels affect flowering. The pathogen is a kind of fungus, which can also harm the bulbs such as Narcissus and Wenshulan. In order to prevent and cure the disease, water droplets are prevented from dripping on the leaves when watering. Spray 600 times of chlorothalonil clear water once at the onset of the disease, the better the effect. The variety classification of Baizi lotus is that its leaves are dark green, bright, and the flowers are blue and purple, as well as white, purple flowers, large flowers and variegated leaves. The garden use of Baizi lotus blossoms from June to August, and the flower shape is beautiful. It is suitable for potted plants to be used as indoor ornamental plants. It is cultivated in semi-shaded places in the south as embellishment plants for rock gardens and flower paths. Baizi lotus pictures beautiful and elegant Baizi lotus

China Garden Network, June 2 news: Baizi lotus, also known as Baizi orchid, gets its name because of its large number of seeds after flowering. It is a perennial herb of the family Amaryllidaceae. Because of the many seeds, it is also extended as "love flower" or "love flower" in Greek, and the flower language is "romantic love" or "love coming".

Baizi lotus is native to South Africa, likes the warm and humid semi-shady environment, is not cold-resistant, but also afraid of heat, afraid of stagnant water, and is not resistant to drought. The main growth period is in spring, early summer and autumn, it is appropriate to give sufficient light to keep the soil moist, but to avoid stagnant water, in order to prevent rotting roots. After flowering, the growth rate of the plant slows down and enters the semi-dormant period, watering should be controlled to prevent rotting roots, but it should not be short of water for a long time, otherwise it will dry up the leaves, stop fertilization, pay attention to ventilation and shade, so as to prevent hot sun exposure. The plant is semi-dormant in winter, move indoors, control watering, do not apply fertilizer, more than 5 ℃ can survive the winter safely.

The common method of ramet propagation is to change pots in spring and autumn, separating the over-dense old plants from 2 to 3 clumps in each pot. if the water and fertilizer are adequate and properly maintained, they can blossom in the following year, otherwise it will take several years to blossom. It can also be propagated by sowing. The seedlings grow slowly and take 4 to 5 years or even longer to blossom.
