How to propagate Aspidistra and what to pay attention to

How to reproduce

There are usually two methods of propagation for Aspidistra, namely cutting propagation and division propagation. Both methods have a relatively high survival rate and grow relatively fast.

Propagation of Aspidistra seeds

The seeds of Aspidistra can be propagated, but they are generally not used because it takes a long time and the seeds need to be harvested in advance.

The natural way for Aspidistra to reproduce is by seed. The seeds need to be harvested in advance and germinated before they can be sown.

The breeding time of the orchid

Generally speaking, it is best to propagate Aspidistra from November to April of the following year, because it is in a dormant period at that time and the survival rate is relatively high. It can be propagated by division.

Method of propagating Aspidistra

Propagation of Aspidistra by division

When propagating Aspidistra by division, it is usually done in February or March each year, because the temperature environment at this time is more suitable for growth. Its roots need to be divided into several clumps before planting.

Cutting propagation of Aspidistra

When propagating Aspidistra by cuttings, it is usually done in the spring of each year. Loose and fertile soil is needed, and the strong branches are inserted into it to keep the soil moist.

Precautions for propagation of Aspidistra

When propagating Aspidistra, you need to be careful and generally use loose, fertile, acidic soil so that it can grow well, and the soil needs to be kept moist during maintenance.
