How do bachelors reproduce

Single tree is a succulent plant, we may be very strange to this plant, because of its unique shape, the whole plant without flowers and leaves, only branches, like a stick inserted in the tree named. So for its reproduction method, many people must not know, below we will talk about some of its reproduction.

morphological characteristics

Also known as green jade tree, dragon bone tree, fairy stick, is a tropical shrub or small tree, plant height about 2-6 meters, leaves small alternate, round linear, but the leaves are rare and easy to fall off, so the plant is leafless all the year round, many branches, more opposite or whorled, used to replace leaves for photosynthesis. Cymbidium is born at the top of branches, yellow and white in color, bracts smaller, fruit capsule, dark in color, skin close to pilose, green when young, gray when old.

How to reproduce

Single trees rarely bear fruit, so the propagation method is mostly cutting method. Before reproduction, it is necessary to select good soil, easy to drain good soil, soil can be configured with moldy leaf soil, garden soil and river sand, and some long-term fertilizer can be placed at the bottom of the basin as base fertilizer. For drainage convenience, some gravel or tiles can be placed at the bottom of the basin.

propagation step

1. Prepare scissors, single branches, water, loosening tools, and prepared pots of soil.

2. Cut a branch from a single branch with scissors.

3. Loosen the basin soil.

4. Dig a pit in the center of the basin soil after loosening the soil.

5. Put the single tree branches to be cut into shallow pits.

6. Fill the soil, fix the branches, and water until the soil is wet.

Rooting can be done after about three weeks, warm conditions are conducive to rooting, and planting can be done in large pots after 4 weeks.

precautions

Single tree milk toxic, carcinogenic and promote tumor growth, contact with the skin can cause redness, eyes can cause short-term bright, pruning must be careful. And don't wait for its slurry to dry and then cuttage into the soil, so the survival rate is low.

The above is the whole content of the breeding method of bachelor tree, in addition to introducing the morphological characteristics of bachelor tree, we can also observe in life, so as not to touch its sap poisoning due to curiosity.
