How to propagate wintersweet and what to pay attention to

How to reproduce wintersweet

There are three main propagation methods for wintersweet: sowing propagation, division propagation, and cutting propagation. The survival rate of all three propagation methods is relatively high, and they are also relatively fast to plant, and the growth rate is also relatively fast during normal maintenance.

Wintersweet seeds can be propagated, usually in July and August each year. The seeds need to be collected before planting and planted in the second year.

The natural reproduction method of wintersweet is sowing. It needs to be germinated before planting so that it can germinate.

Wintersweet breeding time

The reproduction and survival rate of wintersweet is high in February and March. When caring for it, it needs sufficient sunlight and a good ventilation environment, so that it will grow faster and grow better.

How to propagate wintersweet

Propagation of Wintersweet by division

The division propagation of wintersweet is carried out when the leaf buds just come out. The soil around the mother plant should be dug out, the soil should be removed, and the stems should be cut before transplanting.

Cutting propagation of wintersweet

The best season for wintersweet cuttings is winter, usually starting from December and ending before February of the following year. The branches used must also be strong, preferably branches that have grown for two or three years.

Seed propagation of wintersweet

The sowing and propagation of wintersweet should be carried out in July and August. First, the seeds should be collected, then dry-stored, and sown in the spring of the second year, but they must be germinated once.

Precautions for propagation of wintersweet

When propagating wintersweet, you need to pay attention to the fact that it prefers loose soil with good ventilation and rich nutrients, so that it can grow more lushly. It should also be planted in a relatively warm environment, with the temperature kept above 15 degrees.
