How to breed the Oriole

Seed propagation

It is mainly cultivated by pollination and fruiting, but if there are no seeds on hand, the bulbils can be removed by cutting the top or digging out the "heart". Since the quality of young plants obtained through artificial pollination is better than that of ordinary young plants, this method is generally used for reproduction. The cultivation method is mainly semi-closed cultivation. The soil is a mixture of two parts peat soil and one part coarse sand, which is suitable for a humid growing environment. Not only should it be watered frequently, but sufficient light should also be ensured, and the temperature should not be lower than five degrees Celsius. In winter, they are usually moved indoors.

Grafting cultivation

The Jade Plant can take root, and when it grows well, it can be easily propagated through its side buds. It takes three weeks to a month for seedlings to grow, and special varieties may take one to two years to bloom. You can also use hybridization, the young plants are easy to survive, but their beauty will be lacking.

First, graft the seedlings onto the Osmanthus fragrans. Generally, they will grow well in the early stage. However, as the seedlings grow gradually, the grafted roots will suffer from severe nutrient deficiency, so you must pay close attention and observe, remove the new shoots in time, and then cultivate them again.

Precautions

It can grow well in mixed soil, but some species have very strict requirements for water, so they have high requirements for the substrate. We'd better choose those substrates with good air permeability and relatively loose. At the same time, it should be noted that it tends to turn yellow in alkaline substrates, so it needs to be cultivated in acidic substrates. If you want to plant on it, you can soak the flower container containing soil in water with a pH value of about 4.5 for a while, so that you can cultivate good mature plants.
