How to reproduce Prunus mume blossom? the propagation method / grafting of Prunus mume flower is the easiest to survive.

It is well known that the efficacy and function of the plum blossom is very many, so more and more people grow it, and when the plum blossom blossoms, it often involves the problem of reproduction, as a different plant, how to reproduce better? Today we will take a look at the breeding methods of plum blossoms.

How to reproduce Prunus mume

The propagation methods of plum blossom include grafting, planting, sowing, cutting and striping, of which the most commonly used is grafting, which is more convenient to operate, and other ways are also more commonly used, it can be said that each has its own characteristics, let's take a look at the specific methods.

First, how to graft the wax plum blossom

1. Grafting time

The time is generally chosen from March to April, that is, after the flower fade, when the bud germinates with wheat grain size, the grafting is the easiest to survive and is more conducive to flower branch germination. If the bud is too large, the success rate of grafting will be lower.

2. Methods

One month before grafting, the sturdy and longer annual branches were selected from the strong mother tree, and then the top tip was cut off to concentrate nutrients to the middle part of the branch, which could provide sufficient nutrients for grafting.

Cut the leaf bud into a scion of about 6 cm, and then prepare 5-year-old Chimonanthus seedlings as rootstock, the cut of the rootstock should be slightly longer, join the scion with the rootstock, and then smear it with mud.

Seal the treated grafted plants with soil, and after a month, you can pick up the soil and cultivate the surviving ones. The grafted seedlings should be heart-picked in time after cultivation, which can promote the proliferation and germination of the seedlings.

Note: if you use the grafting in the breeding method of Lamei blossom, you should first cut off the scion under the interface after survival, and then cut off the branches and tips of the rootstock above the cut.

2. Sowing and propagation

1. Sowing time

The time of harvest is from June to July of that year. After picking the fruit, peel out the seeds, then store them in wet sand and store them for reproduction in March of the second year.

2. Specific methods

When using sowing method, how to reproduce the plum blossom? First take out the stored seeds, then clear them in the water together with the sand, wash the wax off, and then spread them evenly on the sand bed. Attention should be paid to fertilization and weeding at the seedling stage, and it can be transplanted after 2 years of cultivation.

3. Ramet propagation

1. Ramet time

Ramet is usually carried out in February-March, if the florescence is delayed, it is necessary to wait for the flower to fade before ramet.

2. Specific methods

When the leaf bud just sends out, can carry on the ramet propagation, how does the wax plum blossom reproduce at this time? First dig out the sturdy mother plant and split the stem with a knife so that each one retains at least three or more stems.

The divided stalks are planted in a fertile basin of prepared soil, then a small amount of water is watered, and when the plants begin to grow normally, they are managed in accordance with the culture method of plum blossoms.

IV. Cutting propagation

The cuttage propagation of Prunus mume is usually carried out in November, rather than other plants in spring, the cold tolerance of Prunus mume is strong, so the cutting in November is still easy to survive. Generally, the summer twig is the best, and the branches with strong growth are selected as cuttings. After soaking 1min with 1 × 10-4 α-naphthylacetic acid, it is easier to root in the shaded plastic shed.

How to plant Prunus mume seedlings and points for attention

Lamei is a kind of plant loved by many users. Lamei blossoms in winter, and the flowers have a special fragrance, which can adapt to the cold weather. Many people like to plant Chimonanthus in the courtyard. Chimonanthus can be planted on the ground or potted at home. But the maintenance of potted plants is more troublesome, the adaptability of Lamei is relatively strong, and the management in the later stage is relatively extensive. But there are certain requirements for fertilizers and nutrients. The following are the planting methods and points for attention of dried plum.

Prunus mume planting

(1) planting on the ground. The planting of dried plum should be in the leeward and sunny place, and the transplanting time is mostly in winter and spring, and the root of the seedling must carry a mass of soil. Before planting, apply enough manure, barnyard manure or rotten bean cake as base fertilizer in the planting hole. After applying the base fertilizer, cover the fertilizer with a thin layer of soil, and then put the seedlings to fill the soil. After planting, it should be watered and pruned properly.

(2) potted plants. When potted Lamei is cultivated, the sandy loam which is loose and fertile and rich in humus should be selected. After putting on the basin, pour water in time, put it under the shade shed and slow the seedling for about a month, and then keep it in the courtyard or on the balcony where there is plenty of sunshine for maintenance.

Fertilizer application

The management of dried plum can be more extensive. In general, liquid fertilizer is applied every 20 days from June to September every year (bone meal and cake fertilizer can be used to soak in water and apply after full maturity), which can ensure the good development of branches, leaves and flower buds.

Watering

The ground-planted Lamei was watered once before the early winter, fertilized once after the flowers faded, and watered once, usually not watered, but only properly watered when the weather was too dry.

Potted wax plum watering should grasp the principle of dry re-watering, not more watering, pot soil should not be too wet; but also should not be too dry, too dry will lead to irregular blossoms.

Temperature, light

Potted preserved plum was moved indoors in December. If the room temperature is high, it can blossom before New Year's Day, but if the room temperature is low, the florescence can be delayed until around the Spring Festival. After flowering, it should be moved to a shady place to prevent premature drawing of new shoots and leaves, affecting flower bud differentiation and disadvantageous to flowering in the coming year.

Shaping and pruning

Wax plum germination is strong, after flowering should be pruned in time, generally cut off more than 20 cm part of the flower branch, and cut the elongated branch of the previous year, leaving 1-2 pairs of buds. In this way, nutrients can be concentrated on new shoots and create favorable conditions for outstanding and large flowers the following year.

Reproduction

Prunus mume can be propagated by sowing, striping, grafting, split and other methods. The sowing method is not generally adopted because it is not easy to maintain the original excellent characteristics of flowers. Grafting is widely used, and there are two methods of grafting: cutting and leaning, and cutting is the most commonly used.

What is introduced above is the planting method of preserved plum. Generally, dried plum is planted outdoors, and indoor planting is best cultivated through special cultivation so that it can be moved indoors after survival. Lamei does not have a high requirement for water, so it is OK to keep the soil moist in times of drought, and too much watering is disadvantageous to the growth of the roots. The shape of dried plum is relatively beautiful, but its germination ability is very strong, so it must be pruned properly after flowering, otherwise it is very likely to affect the quality of flowers next year.

Appreciation of pictures of preserved plum trees

Introduction: Lamei has always been the heart of many scholars, not only now, in the past, many poets and talents are very fond of plum blossoms. Some are because of the charm of plum blossoms, and some are because of the character of plum blossoms. No matter what it is, the impression of preserved plum in people's minds is always noble.

However, it should be noted that the drainage performance of the soil should be good and the water absorption should not be too strong.

When planting tree species, the second thing to pay attention to is the temperature. Lamei is cold in nature and can survive as long as it is above 15 degrees below zero. It does not need too much water to grow and is more resistant to drought. So the soil is generally sandy. Chinese plum trees can be planted by sowing, grafting, striping and other ways, which is simple and easy.

Matters needing attention in planting preserved plum trees

Although Lamei is hardy and does not need too much water for planting, in the hot summer, certain nutrients are needed for all tree species, and Lamei is no exception. Can use some rags or cotton wadding some cotton material wet water after put in the flowerpot, can play the role of keeping moisture.

Another way is like the way of large pots and small pots, the large pots are filled with the right amount of water, and the flowerpots for planting Chinese plum trees are put into the large pots filled with water. Pay attention to the right amount of water, otherwise it will cause the preserved plum trees to absorb too much water and restrict its growth. In fact, the easiest way is to move the plum tree to the shade when the light is too strong to avoid direct sunlight.
