Ramet: after the main flowering stage or dormant period of colored calla, dig out the tubers of the sturdy mother plant, according to the size of the original tuber and the number of bud points, divide a clump into 2-3 clumps (each clump with 2-3 bud points), plant separately, manage normally, and blossom in 3 months.

1. Ramet:

After the main flowering stage or dormant period, the tubers of the strong mother plant were dug out, and according to the size of the original tuber and the number of bud points, a clump was divided into 2-3 clumps (each clump with 2-3 bud points), planted separately, managed normally, and could blossom in 3 months.

2. Sub-ball:

The dormant tubers are dug out, and after normal ramets, some smaller tubers can be cut off. These small tubers need to be cultivated in the open field for 1-2 years before they can blossom. Before freezing in autumn, make the bed and cultivate the seed ball with ordinary garden soil, the seed ball grows slowly, if you change to the culture medium, most of the seed ball can form a flowering ball in the same year.

3. Sowing:

Because the natural seed setting rate of colored calla is relatively low, the seeds are not easy to be harvested. If sowing and propagation, we can choose to keep strong mother plants, artificial pollination, seeds can be harvested after maturity. It was sown immediately after harvest, and the optimum temperature for germination was about 20 ℃. The buds were unearthed in about 4 weeks and transplanted in 2 to 3 true leaves. Under excellent cultivation and management conditions, flowering bulbs could be formed in two years.

That's all for today. After reading the above, you must have a better understanding of the breeding methods, precautions and breeding methods of colored calla lilies. If you are interested, let's get started! For more information, please follow the four Seasons Plant Network!

If the temperature is higher than 25 ℃ or lower than 5 ℃, colored calla plants will be forced to go into dormancy. The flowering period of colored calla is mainly affected by temperature and light, and the flowers can be supplied year-round by controlling temperature and light.

2. Soil:

The sandy soil with good drainage condition, rich organic matter and pH value of about 7 should be selected for culturing colored calla, and nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and a large amount of mature organic fertilizer should be applied.
