How to grow Erythrina in South Africa

1. Breeding conditions

1. Soil: Erythrina indica is tolerant to barrenness and has low requirements for soil, but it cannot grow on heavy clay soil. It is best to use loose and fertile soil when breeding.

2. Water: It is very afraid of waterlogging. The soil should be kept half dry and half wet at ordinary times. Do not water too much at one time to avoid water accumulation in the soil.

3. Light: It likes growing conditions with plenty of sunlight and should be kept in a bright place at ordinary times, but it needs humidity and shade in summer.

4. Fertilization: Base fertilizer needs to be applied before planting, and decomposed organic fertilizer needs to be applied once every half a month during the growing period.

2. Breeding Methods

The main method of propagation of South African Erythrina is cuttings. Select strong branches, cut them to 12-20cm long, and then insert them into the culture soil. After cutting, pay attention to watering and ensure humidity, and it will take root soon.
