Many people grow some osmanthus at home, and usually they buy ready-made seedlings, but osmanthus can also be propagated by cuttings. As long as the cuttings are done properly, they will generally start to grow roots in about 20 days, and the root system will be able to grow very well in a month at most. Can the branches of the osmanthus tree be grafted to survive?Osmanthus branches can survive when inserted into the soil . They have very strong growth potential. As long as you choose the right time for cuttings, they can basically survive. Cuttings are generally taken between May and June , or between September and October . The temperature is suitable at this time, and the roots will take shape faster after the cuttings are completed, and the survival rate can also be guaranteed. How to insert osmanthus branches1. Branch selection When cutting osmanthus branches, do not choose too tender branches. It is best to choose semi-lignified or lignified old branches, which are easier for them to survive. Choose branches that are more than ten centimeters long. Cut off all the leaves at the bottom, leaving only 1-2 leaves on the top, and cut the bottom diagonally. 2. Soil preparation for cuttings For osmanthus cuttings, you can use soil with good air permeability, such as river sand. If there is no river sand, you can also use nutrient soil, as long as it is air permeable and sterile. Just find a flowerpot with good drainage, fill it with soil, and prepare for cuttings. 3. Cutting method Soak the branches in rooting liquid for about 30 minutes, then insert the branches more than three centimeters into the soil, compact the surrounding soil, water it thoroughly, and place it directly in a position where it can see scattered light. Wait until the soil surface is slightly dry and then water it in time. This way, the cuttings will easily survive. |
