How to propagate Sansevieria
Summary: Tips and detailed steps on how to propagate Sansevieria and the small green plant care experience for Sansevieria propagation methods, as follows:
Sansevieria is a perennial evergreen herbaceous plant that is popular with most people. Keeping it at home not only serves a certain ornamental purpose but also effectively purifies the indoor air. Therefore, having a pot of Sansevieria at home is a very good choice. However, many people do not know how to propagate Sansevieria during the cultivation process. Next, let me introduce you to the Sansevieria propagation method and steps.
【One, How to Propagate Sansevieria】
<1, Seed Propagation>
Although Sansevieria is a herbaceous plant, it can also bloom and bear fruit. Therefore, people can use Sansevieria seeds for seed propagation. Seed propagation is also a relatively simple method among Sansevieria propagation methods. As long as you plant the Sansevieria seeds in the soil and carefully water and fertilize them, they will soon sprout tender seedlings.
<2, Division Propagation>
The division method is also simple and is a commonly used method. It is usually done when changing pots in the spring. The main task is to cut the overgrown leaf clusters into several smaller clusters. Each cluster cut off should have a section of rhizome and a suction芽, and then they can be planted separately in pots.
<3, Cutting Propagation>
Generally, cutting propagation can be carried out in May, which can increase the survival rate of the plant. Moreover, propagating during this period can also make the plant grow faster. However, many people are not familiar with the Sansevieria cutting propagation method. In fact, it is very simple to propagate Sansevieria by cutting. Everyone can learn to do it by following the methods below.
【Two, Sansevieria Cutting Propagation Method and Steps】
<1, Selecting Cuttings>
How to propagate Sansevieria
Select a few fresh leaves from a healthy and robust plant and break them off. Then, you can use the entire leaf or cut them into small pieces about 6 to 7 centimeters long. Either way, you should let them sit for about a day first. This is done to dry the wounds.
<2, Preparing Soil>
Prepare soil mixed with sand, and choose a breathable, loose soil. You don't necessarily need to prepare a separate pot; you can choose a flower pot with large gaps that has been used for planting other plants. Insert the prepared leaves into the soil, with a depth of 3 to 4 centimeters.
<3, Planting Cuttings>
Next, insert the previously selected cuttings into the matrix. Carefully insert them, with a depth of about 3 to 4 centimeters. However, they should not be too deep or too shallow, as they can easily fall over and are not likely to grow roots.
