How to propagate yellow jasmine

1. Grafting propagation

For yellow jasmine, cuttings are not easy to root. You can use yellow jasmine as a rootstock for grafting. The specific method is as follows:

1. Choose a magnolia that is larger than 5mm as the rootstock. Before grafting, the rootstock needs to be cultivated for a period of time to allow it to grow normally. This will ensure a higher probability of grafting survival. The next step is to select branches from the mother plant of the yellow jasmine. It is best to choose branches that are more than one year old, and the bottom branches should be easy to graft and will not affect the overall beauty.

2. Choose a smooth place at the bottom of the rootstock or near the soil in the flowerpot, wipe off any dirt such as mud and sand with a damp cloth, and then use a knife to make an oblique cut on the rootstock with a length of 1 cm to 1.5 cm and a width of 3 mm to 5 mm. Be sure to ensure the smoothness of the cut and no hair. It is best to cut it in one go.

3. Make a cut on the smooth part of the yellow jasmine branch that is the same size as the rootstock.

4. Align the cut of the yellow jasmine branch with the cut of the rootstock, hold them tightly with your hands, and then wrap the cut with a piece of plastic film. Make sure the tightness is appropriate to prevent rainwater from entering, otherwise it will affect the healing of the cut.

5. The next step is the daily management work in the later stage, which mainly involves the management of water and fertilizer, especially in the summer. In addition to ensuring the moistness of the potting soil, the humidity of the air must also be ensured, and shade work must also be done.

2. High Pressure Method

Before the beginning of the dog days, choose well-developed and disease-free tender branches of the yellow jasmine, about 1.5 cm to 2 cm in length, cut a slit in the bottom of the flowerpot, and then put a medicinal bamboo tube on it. Fill it with culture soil and tie it tightly with a rope. Be careful not to loosen it. Also, pay attention to watering it regularly. It will take root in May of the second year, and then you can plant it.
