How to propagate Bauhinia and what to pay attention to

How to reproduce Bauhinia

There are four ways to propagate Bauhinia: sowing propagation, division propagation, cutting propagation, and leaf cutting propagation. For it, the most commonly used method is sowing propagation, because it is more suitable for large-scale planting.

Bauhinia seed propagation

Bauhinia seeds can be planted, usually in March or April. When the seedlings grow 4 leaves, they can be transplanted.

The natural way for Bauhinia to reproduce is seed reproduction, which is also its most commonly used method of reproduction, and its growth rate is also relatively fast.

Bauhinia reproduction time

Bauhinia can be propagated in autumn, and the survival rate is relatively high. It can be propagated by division. The temperature and climate at this time are more suitable for planting.

How to propagate Bauhinia

Propagation of Bauhinia by division

The division propagation of Bauhinia is generally carried out in autumn, but can also be carried out in spring. It needs to be planted in loose and fertile soil, where it is easier to survive.

Cutting propagation of Bauhinia

The cutting propagation of Bauhinia is generally carried out in the summer of each year, because this is its growing season, its vitality is relatively strong, and relatively strong branches should be used.

Bauhinia sowing propagation

When propagating Bauhinia by sowing, the mature pods are generally harvested in September and October, and then the seeds are taken out and sown in March and April of the following year. Germination treatment is required.

Leaf cutting propagation of Bauhinia

When propagating Bauhinia by leaf cuttings, it is usually done in spring in March or April. It is necessary to use branches that have grown for 1-2 years, which is more conducive to future growth.

Notes on Bauhinia propagation

When propagating Bauhinia, you need to pay attention to using strong branches when carrying out cutting propagation. Do not choose branches with diseases and pests, otherwise it will affect its growth. In addition, there must be a suitable humidity environment and the temperature should be maintained between 15-20 degrees.
