Sakura grass has no relation to cherry blossoms. Cherry blossoms are woody flowers, whereas this is a herbaceous flower. This herbaceous flower is non-toxic and can be seen in many places. Below is a detailed introduction on how to cultivate sakura grass.
I. Propagation Methods
There are four methods of propagating sakura grass:播种 (sowing), division, cutting, and layering. Sowing involves using seeds for propagation, generally used for ground planting. Division involves digging up the plant and separating them to independently cultivate new potted plants. Cuttings involve selecting semi-woody branches 7-10 centimeters long, inserting them into the soil to grow into new plants. Layering involves selecting branches with strong growth, burying them in the soil, and after they have rooted, separating them with scissors to plant and cultivate new potted plants.
II. Maintenance Methods
1. Selecting Seedlings
When cultivating potted plants, it is generally not advisable to choose flowering seedlings or large seedlings, as these have a low survival rate. It is best to choose healthy small seedlings with good growth, which not only have a high survival rate but also grow quickly.
2. Potting Soil
Sakura grass can survive in saline-alkaline soil, but grows best in loose, well-ventilated, and well-drained soil. You can use a mixture of 6 parts humus soil + 2 parts garden soil + 2 parts river sand, mixed evenly to make potting soil. Disinfect with carbendazim before use.
3. Potting
Disinfect the roots of the seedlings with carbendazim, place a layer of coarse sand at the bottom of the pot, then add 5-8 centimeters of potting soil, plant the seedlings in the center of the pot, straighten them, and continue to fill with potting soil until the soil surface is 3-5 centimeters below the pot edge. Then gently lift the seedling, water thoroughly, and place it in a shaded, well-ventilated area for maintenance.
4. Post-Potting Care
After the plant has settled in, maintain a temperature of 15-25 degrees Celsius, keep the potting soil slightly moist, and apply fertilizer during the growing period as needed.
