Introduction to the common propagation methods of night flower

Nelumbo nucifera is an evergreen shrub native to South China. It is a widely cultivated flower plant in South China and Southeast Asia. In the south of China, night flowers are often planted in parks and courtyards, and potted plants are often used to decorate living rooms and rooms in Nanjing. If you are also interested in how to reproduce, you can follow the editor to learn about the common breeding methods.

Night flower

Nelumbo nucifera likes moist, fertile soil and shade tolerance. It is mostly born in the evergreen broad-leaved forest at an altitude of 600m to 900m, and has poor resistance to poisonous gases. It is usually propagated by relying on joining method or high-altitude pressing method. Grafting takes Magnolia, Magnolia, Magnolia and Magnolia as rootstocks; high-altitude striping propagation is carried out after the weather turns warm in early spring or autumn, and after rooting, it is moved into the nursery to grow large seedlings before planting. In recent years, cuttings are also often used to cut ears and sand on one-to two-year-old seedlings, and the survival rate can reach 90%.

Cuttings can also be cut when the conditions are good, and the cutter should maintain a temperature of more than 20 degrees and air humidity of more than 80%, as well as shading. If there are seeds, you can also sow and reproduce. Sow or hide the seeds immediately after harvest, otherwise they will lose their ability to germinate after a long time.

Evergreen shrubs, 1-2 m tall. Introduction to the culture methods and matters needing attention of night flowers; night flowers, also known as magnolia, is native to southern China. Night flowers like warm and humid and half-yin and half-yang environment, shade-resistant, afraid of hot sun exposure, requires fertile, loose and well-drained slightly acidic soil, winter temperature is not lower than 5 ℃. Evergreen shrubs, 1-2 m tall. Morphological characteristics of nocturnal flowers: evergreen shrubs or small trees, 2-4 m tall, glabrous in all parts of the plant; bark gray, branchlets green, smooth, slightly angled and shiny. Leaves leathery, elliptic, narrowly elliptic or Obovate-elliptic, 7-14 (- 28) cm long and 2-4.5 (- 9) cm wide, apex long acuminate, base cuneate, dark green glossy above, slightly wrinkled, margin slightly revolute, lateral veins 8-10 on each side, mesh sparse; petiole 5-10 mm long; stipules scar to tip of petiole. Pedicel of nocturnal flowers curved downward, with 3-4 bract deciduous scars. Flowers globose, 3-4 cm in diameter, tepals 9, fleshy, Obovate, ventral concave, outer 3 pieces greenish, with 5 longitudinal veins, about 2 cm long, inner two whites pure white, 3-4 cm long and 4 cm wide; stamens 4-6 mm long, anthers ca. 3 mm long, connective protruding into mucronate tips; filaments white, ca. 2 mm long; pistil green, ovate, 1.5-2 cm long Carpels ca. 10, narrowly ovate, 5-6 mm long, abaxially with 1 longitudinal groove to style base, stigma short, apical truncate after shedding. The flowering period of night flower is summer, and it blossoms almost all the year round in Guangzhou. Fruit aggregate fruit ca. 3 cm; follicles subwoody; seeds ovoid, ca. 1 cm tall, inner seed coat brown, ventral tip with lateral pores, inguinal inconspicuous, base pointed. Night blossom and fruit in autumn. The ecological habits of night flowers like warm, humid and sunny environment, strong adaptability to climate and soil, shade tolerance, good fertilizer. The night flower likes to grow in a warm, humid and half-yin and half-yang environment. It should be well drained, fertile, slightly acidic sandy soil, avoid calcareous soil, but also resistant to barren soil and arid climate. Flowers bloom for a short time, each blooming for only 1-2 days, often open early in the morning and closed at night, hence the name Night Flower. The fragrance is sweet and fragrant, and it is even stronger at night. The optimum temperature at flowering stage was 22-25 ℃, and flowering was delayed when the temperature was lower than 20 ℃. The cultivation techniques and propagation methods of night flower prefer moist, fertile soil and shade tolerance. They are mostly born under the evergreen broad-leaved forest at an altitude of 600-900m, and have poor resistance to toxic gases. It is usually propagated by relying on joining method or high-altitude pressing method. Grafting takes Magnolia, Magnolia, Magnolia and Magnolia as rootstocks; high-altitude striping propagation is carried out after the weather turns warm in early spring or autumn, and after rooting, it is moved into the nursery to grow large seedlings before planting. In recent years, cuttings are also often used to cut ears and sand on one-to two-year-old seedlings, and the survival rate can reach 90%. The cultivation method of potted soil is the best, do not use calcareous soil, the soil must be acidic, PH is 5.58.5. Family planting can also be mixed with 6 parts of vegetable garden soil, 4 parts of river sand, plus half a tablespoon of black alum. After leaving the room in mid-April, the night flower is maintained in a place of astigmatism with a light transmittance of 30 to 40%. Spring 2 to 3 days watering, the northern spring dry, easy to cause leaves yellowing, so every two or three days continuous watering alum fertilizer water three or four times. Summer should be semi-overcast, often spray water, increase air humidity. After entering autumn, we should water less. Gradually increase the light to enrich the plant. Dead branches and dislocated branches are pruned and shaped in autumn. In winter, the room should be placed in a place where there is no direct sunlight, keeping it between 10 and 12 ℃ during the day, not less than 5 ℃ at night, and no more than 10 ℃ at night, so as not to be harmful to hibernation and affect flowering in the following year. Keep the basin soil slightly wet in winter. During the growing period, the rotten cake fertilizer is applied every 15 days or so. Stop applying nitrogen fertilizer before flowering, and apply more phosphorus and potassium fertilizer to promote flower fragrance. There is no need to apply fertilizer for indoor maintenance in winter. The disease of night flowers to control the common leaf blight of night flowers can be sprayed with 65% zinc wettable powder 600 times. Nocturnal flower pests are harmful to leaf beetles, aphids and shell insects, which are sprayed with 1000 times of fenitrothion EC. The distribution area of nocturnal flowers is native to China; it is distributed in East China, South China, Southwest China and Liaoning, Hebei, Henan, Shaanxi and other provinces.
