Today's introduction will focus on the propagation of the flowering plant Yaluezhiwu. Let's explore how to propagate the succulent Yaluezhiwu together!
If you are creating a bonsai, Yaluezhiwu is an excellent choice because it is easy to shape. This is why many gardening enthusiasts want to grow it. So, how do we propagate the succulent Yaluezhiwu? It's actually quite simple, just use the common cutting method.
Yaluezhiwu cuttings are generally done during the growing season. The cuttings can be branches pruned during shaping. The length of the cuttings is not strict, just about right. It should be planted in moist soil and then kept slightly moist after planting, achieving a damp but not dry feeling. If the temperature is suitable, roots can usually grow in 2 to 3 weeks.
Regarding the rooting time, there is something special to note. Many gardening enthusiasts say that their Yaluezhiwu cuttings do not root for a long time and do not rot. In fact, this is mostly because the cutting time is incorrect. It is recommended to plant cuttings during the growing season and not in winter. After planting, place it in a diffused light environment for maintenance.
For the daily maintenance of Yaluezhiwu, except for a little shading during the high summer temperatures, it should be exposed to as much sunlight as possible during other seasons. In summer, ventilation should be enhanced to avoid a stuffy and humid environment, as this can cause leaf drop due to root rot.
In the peak growing seasons of spring and autumn, fertilize once every two weeks with a well-rotted thin liquid fertilizer or compound fertilizer. Note that the nitrogen content in the fertilizer should not be too high to avoid excessive green in the leaves, which would not highlight the plant's characteristics. Watering should follow the principle of "soak-dry," avoiding long-term waterlogging in the pot.
In winter, keep the potting soil dry, and around 5°C is enough for safe overwintering. Since this plant grows quickly, it should be pruned and shaped regularly to remove excess branches and maintain a beautiful plant shape.
Based on growth conditions, repot once every spring. The potting soil should be loose and fertile with good drainage and aeration. Commonly used is a mixture of 2 parts of decomposed leaf soil, 2 parts of coarse sand, vermiculite, or perlite, 1 part of garden soil, and a small amount of wood ash or bone meal as a base fertilizer, mixed well before use.
