How to plant osmanthus to make it grow well
The editor will tell you about how to plant osmanthus to make it grow well and the introduction of osmanthus planting methods in the green plant flower aspect. Next, the editor will introduce.
There are various ways to propagate osmanthus trees, not only by grafting and cutting, but also by seed propagation! Many people know that osmanthus trees can bloom fragrant flowers, but few know that osmanthus trees can also bear fruit. The fruits of osmanthus trees usually start to mature in April and May. At first, they look like grapes and are green, and then turn purple when mature, at which time the seeds can be harvested.
However, if seeds from osmanthus trees are used for seedlings, it usually takes about ten years for them to bloom. Osmanthus seeds are generally sown in October of autumn or in spring. After harvesting osmanthus seeds, they must be stored for more than half a year before sowing. When sowing, the seed scar should be placed on the side to avoid bending the radicle of the osmanthus seeds, which could affect the growth of the seedlings. Therefore, most farmers propagate through grafting or cutting.
Compared to seed propagation, grafting or cutting can significantly shorten the blooming period of osmanthus trees. Cutting usually takes four to five years to bloom, while grafted osmanthus blooms even earlier, with some blooming in the same year, such as the four-season osmanthus, which mostly blooms in the same year. However, most will bloom successively in the second or third year.
Just as an old saying goes: good food is not afraid of being late. Osmanthus trees have been planted in China for thousands of years. These trees have a long lifespan and do not have high environmental requirements, with strong vitality. They can live for decades or even hundreds of years, and some can live for thousands of years.
Although osmanthus seeds look the best, if you want to plant osmanthus trees, farmers recommend using the cutting method, which has a high survival rate and does not require high technical skills.
There are a few points to note when planting osmanthus trees:
1. Before planting osmanthus trees, it is necessary to observe the weather conditions in advance and avoid planting in rainy days.
2. When pruning the roots of osmanthus trees, the tools used must be properly disinfected, and the cut surface must not come into contact with water to avoid infection.
3. After planting is completed, fertilizing the plant is not allowed. It is necessary to wait for a month before applying some dilute liquid fertilizer and controlling the amount of fertilizer.
