Autumn is here. Three kinds of flowers can be cut quickly and they will bloom that year.
Autumn is a good season for growing flowers. At this time, the weather becomes cooler and various flowers enter the peak growth season. Not only are they easy to cultivate, but the cuttings are also easier to take root. , the survival rate is relatively higher. The three types of flowers below are particularly easy to cut in autumn, and after they survive, they can grow buds and bloom that year.
1. longevity flower
longevity flower is a flower that goes dormant in summer. When the temperature reaches more than 30 degrees, the plant stops growing at all. At this time, it is generally necessary to use less water and fertilizer, and put it in a cool and ventilated place for maintenance. Until the weather starts to get cooler in autumn, you can strengthen the maintenance and management of water and fertilizer. After the plant returns to normal growth, if you want to raise a few more pots of longevity flowers, you can propagate by cuttings and at this time.
Kalanchoe flower cuttings:
Kalanchoe flower has fleshy stems and leaves, which are easier to take root. After pruning the branches, you need to dry the wound slightly, otherwise if you insert it directly into the moist potting soil, it will easily rot.
When cutting longevity flowers, it is best to use loose and breathable sandy soil. If the pot soil is too sticky and has poor permeability, the cuttings will not take root easily and will also rot.
Cut the dried longevity flower branches into loose and breathable potting soil, then water them thoroughly and place them in a cool and ventilated place to avoid direct sunlight. Water them in time when the potting soil is dry. When the environment is too dry, Spray water mist with a watering can to keep the surrounding air moist. It will take about half a month to take root and survive.
2. Geranium
After the summer, geranium will slowly return to the vigorous growth stage. As long as the water and fertilizer are sufficient, and the maintenance is good, the buds will bloom again. Autumn is the peak growth season for geraniums. If you take cuttings to propagate them at this time, the survival rate will be higher, and buds will bloom that year.
Geranium cuttings:
Geraniums are suitable for cuttings from the young branches growing in the current year. In this way, after surviving, the plants will grow vigorously and have stronger flowering ability. You can prune a few young geranium branches, remove the bottom leaves, and dry the wounds slightly for later use.
Before cutting, you must also prepare soft and permeable culture soil to ensure good permeability, otherwise the cuttings will easily rot. After inserting the cuttings, do not place them in direct sunlight. Pay attention to shade and place them in a cool and humid semi-shady environment. Spray water on them every 2 to 3 days to keep the substrate moist. It will last for about half a month. After the roots have taken root and are fully grown, they can be transplanted into pots.
3. Crab claw
Crab claw orchid is a Cactaceae plant. In the summer, it is not resistant to high temperatures and strong light, and also enters a dormant state. At this time, if it is propagated by cuttings, the rooting speed will be very slow. After autumn, when the weather becomes cooler and the plants resume normal growth, you can take more cuttings and propagate them to support them.
Cutting method:
Crab claw plant, a cactus plant, has a strong rooting ability. Just pick some strong and full stems and leaves, prepare loose and breathable culture soil, put the flower soil into the flower pot, and then put the crab Insert the stem section of claw orchid into the potting soil and water it thoroughly. When the potting soil is dry, water it thoroughly. New roots will grow in about twenty days. After October, start to add some phosphorus and potassium fertilizer. And by increasing the light, buds will appear at the top and bloom in winter and spring.
The above three kinds of flowers have the habit of dormancy during high temperatures. After the weather cools down, the plants resume normal growth. This is also the most suitable time for cutting propagation, with faster rooting and higher survival rate.
