How to propagate lily bamboo

Seed propagation

If lily bamboo needs to be propagated in large quantities, sowing propagation can be chosen. It is more suitable to sow in spring and summer. 20-25℃ is the suitable temperature for lily bamboo to germinate and take root. The soil for sowing should be loose and fertile, with good drainage. Sandy soil rich in humus is preferred. You can also use a mixture of leaf mold, plant nutrient soil and river sand.

Cutting propagation

In spring, cut the healthy stems into 5-10 cm leafless nodes, and insert the branches with stem tips that have been growing in a secluded place indoors for a long time into clean coarse river sand. After watering them thoroughly, cover them with plastic bags and place them in a bright place indoors to keep the substrate moist. They will take root in about 25 minutes. Alternatively, you can put the cut branches into water, and they will take root in about half a month in an environment of about 25℃.

Cultivation and management of lily bamboo

Lily bamboo likes a hot and humid climate, and likes to grow in a warm and humid semi-shady environment. 20~28℃ is the suitable temperature for its growth. The winter temperature cannot be lower than 10℃. If the temperature is too low or the air is too dry, the leaf tips of the lily bamboo will dry up.

Lily bamboo is relatively shade-tolerant and can grow in full or half sun conditions. It does not require much water and is both drought-resistant and moisture-resistant, but not cold-resistant. It is afraid of the scorching sun and exposure and likes moisture. Therefore, it grows better in an environment with relatively humid air. During its growing period, you can spray water on the leaves and the surrounding environment, and apply fertilizer every half a month.

The above is the propagation method of lily bamboo.
