How to propagate the longevity flower to survive quickly
Summary: This article provides related experience on how to propagate the longevity flower quickly and understand its cultivation methods and precautions. The following editor will give you a detailed answer.
It is actually very simple to propagate the longevity flower. Many flower enthusiasts often fail in propagation due to listening to different methods. We only need one method to propagate the longevity flower, which is easy to survive.
Usually, when we prune the longevity flower, the branches cut, whether old, young, thick or thin, can be used. Many people say to plant them directly into the soil with moist soil, but this method is incorrect. The moist soil can easily cause bacterial infection when in contact with fresh wounds, leading to propagation failure. What we need to do with the pruned branches is to put them in a place with scattered light and good ventilation to dry for at least two days, allowing the wounds to dry, shrink and heal before propagation. I usually dry them for 5-7 days. After drying, I directly prepare well-ventilated soil. The container for propagation should not be too large, and the soil can be nutrient-rich soil.
Plant the branches directly into the soil and water them thoroughly. Don't forget to add some root-promoting liquid to the water. After propagation, place them in a place with scattered light and good ventilation. As long as we dry them, from propagation to recovery and root growth, it will take no more than a week. Gradually, the leaves will become firm and the top will start growing. At this time, we can gradually place them in a place with sufficient light. When they grow faster, it proves that their roots have grown very well. When the roots fill the hole tray, we can directly transplant them into a new pot for separate care.
This is the method of propagating the longevity flower. Since the longevity flower is a succulent plant, we must dry the branches when propagating. After drying, without fresh wounds, the wounds will heal themselves. When they encounter moisture, they will grow roots directly. If you plant them directly into the soil, they will not grow roots immediately but will heal the wounds first before growing roots. If there are fungi in the soil and the humidity is too high, it will inevitably lead to rotting. This is the most crucial point for the success or failure of propagation. By following my method, you will definitely be able to propagate the longevity flower successfully.
The above sharing on how to propagate the longevity flower quickly, and the related explanation of its cultivation methods and precautions, hope to bring a little help to your life!
