How to propagate Phoenix tail bamboo

1. How to breed

When we take care of Phoenix bamboo at home, the more feasible method of reproduction is mainly division. When it grows large enough, many small suckers will appear at its bottom. After these suckers grow to a certain size, we can use a knife or scissors to cut it along the cluster when repotting, then apply some protective agent to the wound of the cut small plant, replant it in the soil, put it in a ventilated and cool place to slow down the seedling growth, gradually let it see the light and resume normal growth, so as to achieve the purpose of reproduction.

2. Precautions

Phoenix bamboo grows in clumps. Its growing season is spring, summer and autumn. Small bamboo shoots will grow from the rhizomes. During the growth process, its old stems will gradually wither. When you see the withered old stems, you can cut them off in time to ensure the beautiful shape of the plant. In addition, when planting in pots, the soil should be replaced every two to three years to ensure the fertility of the soil. If the plants grow lushly and appear crowded, they can be divided. If the stems are too elongated or tight, they should be properly pruned to facilitate ventilation and aesthetic effects.
