The benefits of sowing fragrant snow orchid

Xiangxue orchid is not only beautiful, but also very fragrant, and it blossoms at the end of the year, so many potted friends plant it as a pot for the Lunar New year Eve. And Xiangxue orchid usually has two methods of reproduction, namely: sowing reproduction and bulb reproduction. Although potted seedlings can be obtained by both methods, bulbs are generally used to propagate.

Compared with bulb reproduction, sowing reproduction has many disadvantages. First of all, it is not easy to obtain seeds, secondly, it is more difficult to germinate seeds, and thirdly, it is more time-consuming and laborious in the whole process of seedling cultivation. Compared with bulb reproduction, these are the shortcomings of sowing and reproduction, so as family potted users generally do not take the method of sowing and reproduction.

But this does not mean that sowing and reproduction are all disadvantages but no advantages, in fact, sowing and reproduction also have certain advantages. Next, the editor will share with you the benefits of sowing fragrant cherry.

The seed has dormancy period.

The seeds of Xiangxue orchid do not have the same obvious dormancy habit as their bulbs. The original is usually in summer, after the plants are withered and yellow, the vanilla bulbs growing in the soil will immediately go into dormancy. On the other hand, dormant bulbs often fail to sprout even if they are planted in the soil.

The seeds of Xiangxue orchid can generally be picked and sown, because it does not have the characteristic of dormancy. As long as the growth conditions are met, it can sprout. In this way, we can flexibly arrange the sowing time to breed vanilla seedlings. It is impossible to breed seedlings during dormancy by using bulbs to reproduce.

Second, sowing reproduction is more stable than bulb reproduction.

Xiangxue orchid, which is propagated by seeds, can obtain flowering bulbs after growing for about a year, and the diameter of the bulbs is generally more than 1 cm. In autumn, the normally growing seedlings can be directly transplanted into the flowerpot to continue to grow, the pot is easier, the growth is more stable, it is easier to obtain the flowering ball, the plant is more resistant, so it is easier to blossom.

If we use bulbs for planting, we first need to step out of dormancy and then plant them in flowerpots in autumn. But planting balls also need to go through a process of germination and growth in order to grow seedlings. Not only that, it is not easy to sprout directly planting the bulb in the flowerpot, and sometimes it is even necessary to accelerate the budding.
