Introduction to the propagation methods of wild tree peony

Wild tree peony is a plant of the genus Paeonia suffruticosa of the family Paeoniaceae. Its florescence is from May to July. It is a common flower in acid soil. Artificial propagation of wild peony can be done by sowing and cutting, which is usually carried out during the Spring Festival.

Wild peony

Because wild peonies like warm and humid climate, they are slightly resistant to drought and barren. Therefore, it is better to cultivate in sunny, loose and humus-rich soil. Wild peony is widely distributed in the wilderness hillsides, shrub forests and sparse forests of most provinces in the south of the Yangtze River. Like shade, suitable for growing in acid soil, resistant to barren, with good resistance to diseases and insect pests, extensive management. Pruning in time after anthesis is needed to control plant height and plant type. It can be planted alone or in bushes under the forest. The growth of sowing seedlings is slow, and cutting should be carried out in spring and summer with fast rooting.

Wild peony is propagated by seed. The seeds were sown from late March to early April, and the seeds were mixed with plant ash or fine soil, sowed evenly on the seedling bed, covered with fine soil 2cm, and then covered with grass and watered. When the sowing rate is 22.5~30kg per hour, when the temperature is above 25 ℃, the seedlings will emerge in about 20 days, and the cover grass will be removed after emergence. The height of the seedling was about 15cm, and 3 plants were planted in each hole according to the distance between rows and plants 40cm × 40cm.

The Culture method of Wild Peony the difference between wild peony and peony

Wild peony is a shrub of the genus Paeonia, with corymbose inflorescences growing at the top of branches and petals rose or pink. What's the difference between wild peony and peony? How to breed it? Next, let's take a look at the culture methods of wild peony and the difference between wild peony and peony.

I. Culture methods of wild peony

1. Planting: the soil of wild tree peony is required to be loose, fertile and neutral. Cut off the broken and diseased roots of the planted peony seedlings, soak the insecticides and fungicides into a prepared pot or pit, and loosen the soil and weed once every other month from planting to sealing.

2. Watering: the wild peony is watered once after planting. Peony avoid stagnant water, appropriate watering during the growing season. In the arid areas of northern China, water before flowering, water after flowering and frozen water are generally watered.

3. Fertilization: one year after wild peony planting, it is feasible to apply fertilizer in autumn, mainly mature organic fertilizer. It can be combined with loosening soil, spreading and acupoint application. Chemical fertilizers are often used in spring and summer, combined with watering before and after flowering. Pot load can be combined with watering to apply liquid fertilizer. Extensive cultivation and management, topdressing human dung, urine or compound fertilizer once in spring, summer and autumn, compost or plant ash in winter, and soil cultivation after topdressing.

4. Temperature: wild peony is fond of high temperature, extremely cold-resistant, and has a wide range of adaptation to temperature.

5. Illumination: wild peony is a positive plant, which must be planted in the sunny place and give sufficient light.

6. Pruning: in the year when wild peony was planted, there were many rows of flat stubble. After germination in spring, about 5 branches will be left, and the rest will be wiped out to concentrate nutrition so as to make the flowers of the second year big and colorful. Autumn and winter, combined with Qingyuan, cut off the dry flower stalk, thin, non-flowering branches. When potting, trim it to your favorite shape as needed.

7. Change the basin: after growing in the pot for three or four years, the wild peony should be planted in a large pot or separately planted with new fertile soil in autumn.

8. Spraying: stone-sulfur mixture was sprayed before wild peony sprouted in early spring, and a mixture of insecticides and fungicides was used in summer, once every 2 weeks depending on the condition. Combined with fertilization, chemical fertilizers and growth regulators should be added.

Second, the difference between wild peony and peony.

Wild peony is a shrub of the genus Paeonia. Tree peony is a perennial deciduous shrub of Ranunculaceae and Paeoniae.

Wild peony petals rose or pink, Obovate, flowering from May to July. Peony petals 5, or double, rose, reddish purple, pink to white, usually very variable, Obovate. Flowering in May.

The capsule of Paeonia suffruticosa is globose, fruiting from 10 to 12 months. Peony oysters oblong, densely yellowish brown hirsute, fruiting in June.

Culture methods and matters needing attention of multi-flowered wild peony

Cultivation methods of multi-flowered wild peony, soil

The cultivation of multi-flowered wild peony requires loose, fertile soil, good drainage, and neutral or slightly alkaline, preferably sandy soil or rotten leaf soil. Before planting, the seedlings of the multi-flowered wild peony need to be rooted, disinfected and insecticidal, and put into the flowerpot. Stretch the roots and fill them with soil.

Temperature and light

The multi-flowered wild peony likes the warm climate, and the suitable temperature for growth is between 15 ℃ and 20 ℃, but it has a wide adaptability to the temperature. Multi-flowered wild peony is a positive plant, can be planted in sunny places, the light should be sufficient, half-day or full-day sunshine is OK.

Watering and fertilizing

The multi-flowered wild peony likes the wet environment and can be watered once after planting. However, it avoids stagnant water in the basin, so it needs to be watered as appropriate during the growth period. Multi-flowered wild peony needs topdressing, but it is more resistant to barren, usually applying organic fertilizer or farm manure in spring, summer and autumn, and sprinkling some plant ash in winter. Fertilization should be combined with watering before and after flowering.

Points for attention in breeding and pruning of multi-flowered wild peony

The multi-flowered wild peony needs to be pruned during the growth period, and it needs to be plucked when growing, leaving a few branches and pruning off other branches, so that nutrients can not be wasted. In autumn and winter, the withered branches, diseased branches and weak branches of wild peony can be trimmed to make it grow well, and the plant type can also be trimmed according to one's own preference.

Change the basin

Potted multi-flowered wild peony needs to be changed with the growth of the plant. Generally speaking, after the multi-flowered wild peony has grown for 3-4 years, it is necessary to put on a larger flowerpot in autumn or combine with the change of pot for ramet propagation.

Diseases and insect pests

The diseases and insect pests of multi-flowered wild peony are relatively less, during the growth period, mainly to prevent, spray some fungicides.
