How to propagate the Tyranthus radiata by sowing and cutting propagation

Reproduction method of Tyrannosaurus rex

The propagation of the giant whip can be done by sowing or cuttings, but cuttings are the main method. Except for winter, it can be propagated in spring, summer and autumn, but the survival rate is highest in summer. It is recommended that flower lovers do it around May and June, as cuttings will be more likely to survive at this time.

Common breeding methods of Tyrannosaurus

1. Propagation of Typhonium by cuttings

The king whip is generally propagated by cuttings. This method is relatively simple, not complicated to operate, and has a high survival rate. Choose a well-growing plant and cut off a thick stem segment from it. It must have vitality. You can apply an appropriate amount of wood ash and dry it in the sun.

The substrate used for cuttings needs to have good drainage. It is best to expose it to the sun for a period of time before use, insert the dried stem segments, compact the surrounding soil, and then place it in a semi-shaded position and spray some water. As long as the substrate can be kept slightly moist, it will take about 40-50 days for roots to grow.

2. Seeding propagation of Tyrannosaurus

The king whip can also be sown, but the seeds are difficult to collect and need to be purchased in the market. Soak the purchased seeds in clean water, and then sow them in loose, soft, breathable, well-drained, preferably nutritious sandy soil. Keep the soil moist and they will soon take root.
