Introduction to the breeding methods of Musk Lilium

Musk lilies and the lilies we often talk about (details) are not a variety. Musk lilies are white in color, rich in fragrance and of high economic value. Musk lily can not only be used for potted ornamental, but also a good material for cut flowers. Musk lily is bulb spherical or nearly spherical, so artificial reproduction can choose the method of dividing balls, scales and sowing.

Easter lily

First, divide the ball

The bulb (mother bulb) gradually forms a new bulb on the stem axis in the process of growth. Generally, 1-3 or more pellets can be produced after one year of cultivation. After the ball is harvested in autumn, it will be planted in the spring of the second year, or it can be planted in the deep soil in the autumn of that year.

Second, scales

The mature and robust bulb was dried, the scales were peeled off from the stem, and the cuttings were cut in April. The cutting depth can be slightly exposed at the top. In general, after 2-4 months of cutting in spring, most of the scales take root and send leaves, and grow into small bulbs on the scale base, which can be transplanted at this time. It usually takes 3-4 years to propagate to flowering with scales.

Third, sowing seeds

After the capsule is ripe, take out the seed and sow it immediately. The seedlings can blossom after 2-3 years.

Culture method of Musk Lilium how to reproduce Musk Lily

Musk lily is mainly used for cut flowers and Easter potted flowers in Europe and America, and it has almost become an indispensable flower at Easter, so it is widely cultivated in Europe and the United States, and the cultivation level is also very high. Its plant shape is straight, the design and color is pure white, the shape is beautiful, it gives people a sense of white and elegant, and it also has the auspicious meaning of a hundred years of harmony, so it is a kind of cut flower with a bright future.

Musk lily, elegant and elegant, is an important cut flower, which can be decorated with flower beds, flower mirrors, garden sketches or potted plants.

Musk lilies like warm but not cold-resistant, require strong light conditions, such as weak light, will reduce flowering, like slightly acidic, humus-rich, well-drained clayey soil, and grow poorly in dry calcareous soil. Musk lily belongs to autumn bulb root, first root after autumn planting, then sprout new buds but not unearthed, the next spring break out seedlings, unearthed after the beginning of flower bud differentiation, at this time need about a month low.

Morphological characteristics of Musk Lilium

Stem musk lily bulb globose or subglobose, 2.5-5 cm tall; scales white. The stem is 45-90 cm tall, green, and the base is reddish.

Leaves of leaf musk lily scattered, lanceolate or rectangular-circular-lanceolate, 8-15 cm long and 1-1.8 cm wide, apex acuminate, entire, both surfaces glabrous.

Musk lily flowers solitary or 2-3; pedicel 3 cm long; bracts lanceolate to ovate-lanceolate, ca. 8 cm long and 1-1.4 cm wide; flowers trumpet-shaped, white, greenish outside tube, up to 19 cm long; outer whorl tepals 2.5-4 cm wide; inner tepals slightly wider than outer whorls, without papillary protuberances on both sides of nectaries. Filaments 15 cm long, glabrous; ovary Terete, 4 cm long, stigma 3-lobed.

The capsule of fruit musk lily is round, 5-7 cm long.

The florescence of musk lily is from June to July and the fruiting period is from August to September.

Ecological habits of Musk Lilium

Musk lilies like warm but not cold-resistant, require strong light conditions, such as weak light, will reduce flowering, like slightly acidic, humus-rich, well-drained clayey soil, and grow poorly in dry calcareous soil. Musk lily belongs to autumn bulb root, first root after autumn planting, then sprout new buds but not unearthed, the next spring break out seedlings, unearthed after the beginning of flower bud differentiation, at this time need about a month low.

The light in the double-layer plastic greenhouse in winter and spring is enough to make the plant grow normally and healthily. If the light is too weak, the plant growth is weak, thus affecting the differentiation of flower buds. The length of sunshine has a great effect on plant growth and flowering. Musk lily is a long-day plant, but it can also blossom under short-day conditions. It blossoms quickly under long-day sunshine, for example, 18-hour long-day sunshine blossoms 38 days earlier than 8-hour short sunshine. But under the long sunshine, the leaves of the plant become less. In winter, in order to promote flowering, the effect of low light intensity light treatment for 4 hours at night (20:00 to 0 o'clock) was much better than that of prolonging light for 6 hours to 8 hours in the evening. The effect of long sunshine treatment was the same as that of low temperature treatment, but they were easy to cause molting and differentiation under the condition of air temperature above 20 ℃. The soil must be kept moist during the growing period. in the peak period of flower development, such as lack of water, it is easy to lead to shortening of internodes and affect the yield of cut flowers. The florescence regulation of musk lily is mainly cultivated by heating in glass greenhouse or in plastic greenhouse without heating in warm areas.

Musk lily requires slightly acidic soil with rich humus and good drainage, which grows poorly in calcareous and alkaline soil. It likes the cool and humid climate in summer. At 5 ℃, the plant growth was stagnant; when it was more than 10 ℃, the plant could grow normally; when it was more than 25 ℃, the growth was stagnant, and the flower bud differentiation of the plant would be seriously affected, resulting in blind flowers. 15 ℃ ~ 20 ℃ is most suitable for flower bud differentiation and flowering. For the bulbs that have been treated with vernalization at low temperature, the higher the temperature is, the earlier the flower bud differentiation is, but the number of leaves and flowers is less, and the stem is so short, while the cultivation at low temperature will cause some disadvantages such as shortening of internodes and delay of flowering. Therefore, 10 ℃ ~ 20 ℃ is the suitable temperature for cultivation. Musk lily has certain shade tolerance and is best cultivated in sparse forest environment.

Culture methods of Musk Lilium

Clayey soil with good drainage and water retention is the best, as well as light clay and loess. With nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium as the base fertilizer, the amount of fertilizer is determined according to the variety and soil, generally 0.4 kg-0.8 kg per 100 square meters. The pH value of soil is about 6.5.

When the bulb buds grow to 3 cm-6 cm, the colonization is the best. when the buds grow to more than 7 cm, the stems on the surface are thin and the roots are easy to lodge. Shade and fully water the sun after planting; buds grow 4-5 days later and continue to cover, but keep well ventilated.

Rizhao should cover 25% of the sun, 30% of the sun, except from November to February of the following year. But in the short sunshine period, it is necessary to supplement the lighting.

If watering is too dry, the growth of the stem is weak; too much water, coupled with poor ventilation and lack of sunshine, the stems and leaves are weak and slender. Watering should be carried out in the morning on a sunny day, and the passageway should be sprinkled to improve indoor humidity.

Reproduction mode of musk lily

Bulb (mother bulb) in bulb reproduction, new bulbs are gradually formed on the stem axis in the process of growth. Generally, 1-3 or more pellets can be produced after one year of cultivation. After the ball is harvested in autumn, it will be planted in the spring of the second year, or it can be planted in the deep soil in the autumn of that year.

Scale propagation will dry the mature and robust bulb, peel off the scales from the stem and cut them in April. The cutting depth can be slightly exposed at the top. In general, after 2-4 months of cutting in spring, most of the scales take root and send leaves, and grow into small bulbs on the scale base, which can be transplanted at this time. It usually takes 3-4 years to propagate to flowering with scales.

Sowing and propagation after the capsule is ripe, take out the seeds and sow them immediately. The seedlings can blossom after 2-3 years.

Musk lilies like warm but not cold-resistant, require strong light conditions, such as weak light, will reduce flowering, like slightly acidic, humus-rich, well-drained clayey soil, and grow poorly in dry calcareous soil. Musk lily belongs to autumn bulb root, first root after autumn planting, then sprout new buds but not unearthed, the next spring break out seedlings, unearthed after the beginning of flower bud differentiation, at this time need about a month low.

Reproduction mode of musk lily

1. Reproduce by dividing balls

The bulb (mother bulb) gradually forms a new bulb on the stem axis in the process of growth. Generally, 1-3 or more pellets can be produced after one year of cultivation. After the ball is harvested in autumn, it will be planted in the spring of the second year, or it can be planted in the deep soil in the autumn of that year.

2. Scale propagation

The mature and robust bulb was dried, the scales were peeled off from the stem, and the cuttings were cut in April. The cutting depth can be slightly exposed at the top. In general, after 2-4 months of cutting in spring, most of the scales take root and send leaves, and grow into small bulbs on the scale base, which can be transplanted at this time. It usually takes 3-4 years to propagate to flowering with scales.

3. Sowing and reproduction

After the capsule is ripe, take out the seed and sow it immediately. The seedlings can blossom after 2-3 years.

Culture methods of Musk Lilium

1. Soil

Clayey soil with good drainage and water retention is the best, as well as light clay and loess. With nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium as the base fertilizer, the amount of fertilizer is determined according to the variety and soil, generally 0.4 kg-0.8 kg per 100 square meters. The pH value of soil is about 6.5.

2. Colonization

Bulb buds grow to 3 cm-6 cm when the best colonization, to more than 7 cm, the surface part of the stem thin, roots exposed easy to lodge. Shade and fully water the sun after planting; buds grow 4-5 days later and continue to cover, but keep well ventilated.

3. Sunshine

Cover 25% of the sun, 30% of the sun, except November-February of the following year. But in the short sunshine period, it is necessary to supplement the lighting.

4. Watering

If the stem is too dry, the growth potential of the stem is weak; too much water, coupled with poor ventilation and lack of sunshine, the stem and leaves are weak and slender. Watering should be carried out in the morning on a sunny day, and the passageway should be sprinkled to improve indoor humidity.

Disease Control of Musk Lilium

The main results are as follows: 1. The main physiological diseases in the cultivation of musk lily are blind flower and flower crack. The causes and preventive measures are as follows:

The main results are as follows: (1) the normal development of flower buds damaged by blind flowers is blocked, and the buds wither and wither. In most cases, it is due to close planting and insufficient indoor light, or short sunshine hours, and so on. In particular, the low temperature below 5 ℃, the sharp drop in air temperature, the large temperature difference between day and night, and the soil is too dry or overheated. In order to prevent the occurrence of blind flowers, we should try to avoid the above situation.

(2) the main manifestation of flower crack is petal separation and cracking, which mostly occurs when the air temperature changes suddenly and there is a great difference between dry and wet. To prevent flowers from cracking, we should try our best to avoid the sharp rise and fall of the temperature, and pay attention to watering timely and appropriately.

2. Soft rot mainly harms leaves, flowers and bulbs, while petals produce oval spots; leaves produce oval, yellowish, dark brown spots with slightly concave surroundings; on rainy days, black particles appear on stems and leaves, and finally all leaves fall, resulting in plant death. Prevention and control methods: a small number of plants were immediately cut off or removed, burned or buried deeply, and pay attention to ventilation and light transmission to increase plant disease resistance.

3. Rot disease and leaf spot disease are caused by bacteria invading bulb leaves. Prevention and treatment: if the disease occurs, 50% aseptic 600 × 1000 times or 40% carbendan 500 times should be sprayed every 10 to 15 days. The main preventive measure is the non-continuous cropping of musk lilies.

4. Adult acaroid mite is milky white and pear-shaped. This mite harms the bulb root underground, generally harms the pedicel of the bulb first, gradually expands upward, and the injured part becomes black and rotten, causing death of the whole forest in serious cases. Control method: pay attention to ventilation and dryness during bulb storage. Soak the damaged bulbs with 1000 times of dicofol for 2 minutes after harvest and before storage.

5. Grubs often bite off the roots of musk lilies, causing plants to wilt and die. Prevention and control methods: you can use black light to trap and kill adults, or you can fill the roots of flowers with 1000 times of phoxim emulsion to kill them.
