How to split Anthurium andraeanum in potted plants

White palm, alias white taro, generally breeds young plants by means of ramets. The ramet of white palm is usually carried out every 2 years, and the ramet is mostly carried out in the spring and autumn season, which can be combined with changing pots. However, if the ramet is changed in spring, the new buds generally need to be erased so as not to affect the survival of the seedlings.

When the ramet is white palm before germination in early spring, the mother plant is taken out of the original basin, then the old soil is removed, and then it is divided into several plants along the combination of the plant root growth point, and each ramet seedling needs to have more than 3 rhizomes and bud points. Next, these ramet seedlings can be transplanted in pots. Let's follow the editor to see how the potted white palm is divided.

First, the mother plant is out of pot.

First of all, pour a small amount of water into the original basin to separate the soil close to the wall of the basin from the original basin, and then take the mother plant of white palm together with the soil from the original basin by inverted buckling. One hand is needed to hold the inverted plant and basin soil, and the other hand is to insert the finger into the drain at the bottom of the basin and pull up, so that the plant can be easily removed without harming the plant.

Second, remove the old soil

After taking off the pot, put the plant on the ground together with the potted soil, and then gently remove the soaked soil around the plant. Pay attention to the operation process must be careful, must not hurt the plant and its roots, otherwise it is easy to reduce the survival rate of plantlets. You can gently remove the soft clay with gloves, or you can use tools to remove the soil, but no matter how you do it, you should avoid damaging the plant.

3. Ramet process

After pulling out most of the adherent soil on the white palm mother plant, the fine white roots of the plant were all exposed. After we gently straighten out these roots, we can find that white palm can be divided into multiple plants. Then, according to the distribution of roots, the mother plant is divided into several plants. of course, care should also be taken in the process of ramet to avoid damage to the plant as much as possible.

4. Transplanting in pot

In the upper pot, young plants with strong growth should be selected for transplanting, which can improve the survival rate of plantlets. After selecting the split seedlings, you can transplant according to the normal pot method of pot plants. However, it should be emphasized that the newly transplanted ramet seedlings have a slow seedling process, except that they need to be watered once after potting, and they should not be allowed to receive direct sunlight within a few days during the seedling stage. wait until the slow seedling ends smoothly a few days later to let it gradually increase the light.
