In early August, the seed balls can be planted in another pot, 30% rotten fertilizer can be used in the basin soil, and then the culture soil will be loaded into the basin, and then the seed balls will be planted in the pot, and the seed balls will be covered with 1-1.5 cm of soil. It should be watered thoroughly after planting, and it can germinate and grow after 10 days.

Xiangxuelan likes plenty of sunshine and relatively low temperature. At 15C or room temperature, the plant can grow normally and healthily, but when the temperature or room temperature exceeds 20C, the plant is easy to lodge because of overgrowth, or do not love flowers.

The optimum temperature for seed germination was 15-20 ℃, and the germination time was about 21 days under dark conditions. When the seedlings had 5-7 leaves, the aboveground parts were withered and yellow, and the underground corms entered the period of high temperature dormancy. After dormancy, the seed balls can be planted and cultivated for 1 year, and then they can be used as flowering mother balls.
