Cutting propagation of chandelier hibiscusCuttings need to be taken between May and October, and in the greenhouse in winter, but the survival rate is higher during the rainy season. It is advisable to choose one-year-old semi-lignified cuttings, about 10 cm long, keep the top leaves and cut off the lower leaves. Make sure the incision is flat and insert them into the sand bed. The air humidity should be high and the room temperature should be between 18 and 21 degrees Celsius. The cuttings will take root 20 to 25 days after cutting. Treating the base of the cuttings with 0.3% to 0.4% indolebutyric acid for 1 to 2 seconds can shorten the rooting period. Transplant into pots when the roots are 3-4 cm long. Grafting propagation of chandelier hibiscusGrafting is done in spring and autumn. It is generally used for varieties that are difficult to propagate or take root slowly, especially double-petal varieties with low survival rates of cuttings. Either branch grafting or bud grafting is acceptable, and the rootstock should be single-petal hibiscus. The grafted seedlings will sprout and bloom in the same year. Propagation and maintenance of chandelier hibiscusHibiscus is a positive tree species and needs to be moved to a sunny place outdoors in early May. This is also the growing season of Hibiscus and management work such as fertilizing, watering, loosening the soil, and weeding needs to be strengthened. Water according to the dryness or wetness of the potting soil. Too dry or too wet will affect flowering. If there is not enough light, the flowers will shrink and the buds will fall off easily. The daily sunlight should be greater than 8 hours. Hibiscus has a high demand for fertilizer, so attention should be paid to timely light supplementation during cultivation. Potted hibiscus is usually moved out of the house in April. Before moving out, the pot should be changed and the tree should be properly pruned to keep the crown beautiful. It needs sufficient water during the growing period and cannot be waterlogged or lack of water. Generally, it should be watered once a day, once in the morning and once in the evening during the dog days. Water the ground frequently to increase humidity and reduce temperature to prevent flowers from falling early. When the weather gets cooler at the end of October, move the potted plants into the greenhouse and keep the room temperature above 12°C. Be careful in management after autumn and pay attention to applying less fertilizer in the later period to avoid the growth of autumn shoots. The autumn shoots are young and tender, with weak resistance to cold, and will be damaged by frost in cold weather. |
