When to plant Guangdong dahlias

1. Root division

It can be propagated by root division, usually in spring from March to April, when growth is very vigorous, which helps to increase the survival rate. Cut the tuber with a knife. Note that the knife must be sterilized to avoid infection. Apply wood ash on the cut to play an anti-inflammatory role. After that, it can be planted in the substrate and the temperature should be kept at 15-22℃, which will help the later growth.

2. Cutting

If you choose the cutting method, you can choose between June and August. This is the main method of propagation, but the operation is more complicated. Cuttings are tuberous roots that have been germinated. When the leaves at the base of the new shoots unfold, they can be peeled out from the base and then inserted into sandy loam. A small amount of leaf mold or peat soil can be added to the substrate.

3. Sowing

The seeds are usually picked after the weather turns cool in autumn. If you choose to sow in a hotbed, you can choose mid-to-late March. If you choose to sow in the open air, you need to postpone the time to April. Spread the seeds evenly on the soil surface and cover them with a thin layer of soil. Then pay attention to the maintenance environment.
