Honeysuckle not only has a high medicinal value, but also looks very beautiful when planted on the balcony as an ornamental plant. Honeysuckle planted on the balcony usually adopts two methods: seed planting and cutting propagation. Seed planting is generally carried out in April, first germinating the seeds and then sowing. Cutting propagation needs to be done in the rainy season when the weather is relatively humid, simply insert the trimmed cuttings directly into the soil. The following is a detailed introduction to the honeysuckle planting methods.
1. Seed Planting
Honeysuckle seed planting needs to be carried out in April, as the weather at this time is more suitable for honeysuckle growth, so the survival rate is also the highest. First, you need to select some full-grained seeds, then soak them in 40-degree warm water for a day. Wait until the seeds expose the white part. Transplant the successfully germinated seeds into the soil, and seedlings can grow in about a week.
2. Cutting Propagation
Cutting propagation is usually done in the rainy season and humid weather. It is best to avoid winter, as winter planting has a significant impact on root growth. First, choose a good growing branch, then cut off 30 centimeters, remove the leaves from the lower part, and insert it directly into the soil. Keep the above-ground part about 10 centimeters, and finally cover it with a layer of soil and press it down.
3. Environmental Requirements
Honeysuckle is a plant that likes the sun, so during the planting process, it is necessary to provide honeysuckle with sufficient sunlight every day. When the weather is cold in winter, you can put honeysuckle indoors for maintenance. Honeysuckle does not have high requirements for soil, generally choosing soil that contains organic matter and has good drainage is fine. Pay attention to proper watering during maintenance.
4. Pruning Branches and Leaves
Honeysuckle is a vine plant, so it has strong winding properties. If not pruned, it will cover the ground and look messy. Honeysuckle pruning is generally arranged in autumn and winter, when honeysuckle is in a dormant period, so pruning causes minimal damage to the plant. Honeysuckle pruning mainly removes overgrown and excessively vigorous long branches and old, weak, sick, and disabled branches.
