How to propagate blue chrysanthemum by cuttings

Blue-eyed chrysanthemum cutting season selection

It is best to carry out cuttings of blue-eyed chrysanthemum branches in spring, which is conducive to rooting and germination. It is best not to carry out cuttings in summer, which will greatly reduce the survival rate of cuttings and affect reproduction.

Selection of soil medium for cutting of blue-eyed chrysanthemum

Blue-eyed chrysanthemum has a strong ability to adapt to the environment and has vigorous vitality. Therefore, the requirements for the soil matrix are not high. Generally speaking, sand, soil, perlite, etc. and their mixed media can be used. The main purpose of mixing sand is to ensure the permeability of the potting soil, which is more convenient for branches to take root. Then you can cut a piece of blue-eyed chrysanthemum branch from the mature and well-growing mother plant, and after simple processing, you can gently insert it into the potting soil.

Watering after cutting of blue eyed chrysanthemum

When watering after cuttings, be sure to water thoroughly, then place the plant in a ventilated and cool place to avoid direct sunlight that causes a dry environment due to rapid evaporation of water. You can also choose to cover the plant with plastic film or plastic bags to maintain humidity. Later, after the blue-eyed chrysanthemum branches have successfully grown new buds after cuttings, they can be moved to a warmer place with sufficient light. After that, just keep the soil in the pot moist and water the blue-eyed chrysanthemum plant regularly, but be careful not to cause water accumulation in the pot.

Fertilization of blue chrysanthemum

The growing period of blue-eyed chrysanthemum is relatively long, lasting from spring to late autumn. It will be topped twice during this period. When it is planted, some base fertilizer can be applied appropriately, which will be more conducive to flowering. If there is sufficient light and the humidity is appropriate, it only takes two months for the blue-eyed chrysanthemum to grow from seedling to flowering.
