How to propagate one-leaf orchid-the method of ramet propagation

The leaf orchid is evergreen all the year round, the leaf shape is straight and straight, the leaf color is dark green and bright, the posture is graceful, elegant and elegant. At the same time, it has strong growth, strong adaptability and strong shade tolerance, so it is an excellent shade-loving foliage plant for indoor greening decoration. Suitable for home and office layout, can be watched alone, can also be arranged with other flowering plants, in order to set off the bright and beautiful of other flowers. So, how does one-leaf orchid reproduce?

One-leaf orchid is very suitable for family breeding, family potted one-leaf orchid can be propagated by ramet. During propagation, attention should be paid to the selection of ramet time, the application of ramet method and the maintenance after ramet.

The method of plant division can be carried out in March of spring. Dig the big clump of plants out of the soil, gently shake off the soil, and cut it with a sharp knife according to the trend of the rhizome. Each clump of rhizome should have 8 buds and 9 buds. The split one-leaf orchid plant can be planted after half a day of air-drying in the shade.

When turning the basin in spring, take out the mother plant from the basin soil, separate the root system with a knife, take 2-5 leaves for survival, and pour enough water after filling the basin.

One-leaf orchid is mainly propagated by individual plants, which can be divided in combination with changing pots before the temperature rises in spring and before the new buds germinate. The underground rhizome and leaves were divided into several clumps with 3-5 leaves in each clump, then planted in pots and maintained in semi-shady environment.

1. Ramet time

The ramet propagation of Cymbidium can be divided in combination with changing pots before the temperature rises in spring and before the new buds germinate. It is usually carried out after the soil is thawed in early spring (February and March).

2. Ramet method

Take the mother plant out of the flowerpot, shake off the excess potted soil, separate the roots knotted together as much as possible, and cut it into two or more plants with a sharp knife. Each plant should have a considerable root system, and its leaves should be pruned properly so that each clump has 5 leaves in order to survive.

3. Disinfect in pots

Soak the split plant in 1500 times chlorothalonil solution for five minutes, then take out the cold dry, and then serve. You can also irrigate the root with chlorothalonil immediately after potting.

4. Maintenance methods

The one-leaf orchid has strong adaptability and fast growth, and the basin should be changed every 1-2 years. Use the same amount of mixed culture soil of loam, rotten leaf soil and river sand. When changing the basin, apply a small amount of broken bone slices or cake fertilizer as base fertilizer, pour through water and culture in a cool place after planting. During the growth period, water should be fully watered and often sprayed on the leaf surface to maintain high air humidity. Dilute liquid fertilizer can be applied twice a month to promote the germination of new leaves and robust growth.

Variegated varieties should be given light fertilizer, if the fertilizer is too sufficient, the leaf spots are easy to disappear. Avoid direct sunlight in summer, but pay attention to ventilation and remove yellow leaves in time. In the new leaf germination to the new leaf is growing stage, can not be placed in the shade of the room, otherwise the new leaf will grow slender and thin, affecting the ornamental. The northern region should move indoors in winter, reduce watering and stop fertilization, if the basin soil is too wet, it is easy to cause rotten roots.
