How to plant iris seeds?

Preparation before sowing

The first thing is the flower pot. For this kind of flower, it is best to choose a pot that is not too deep, 10cm is enough. Just fill the pot with fine sand and soil until it is 70% to 80% high. One thing to note is that fine sand is used to ensure the drainage capacity of the entire potting soil. If drainage cannot be guaranteed, the roots may not be able to breathe normally and eventually rot.

It is best to choose seeds that are a little fuller, but seeds are still easy to germinate. If you feel unsure, you can soak them in warm water for a whole day, which will make it easier for them to germinate.

Sowing method

Select the more mature seeds and sow them directly on the prepared sand at intervals of one or two centimeters. After finishing, cover it with a layer of sand, about three to five centimeters.

At this time, pick up the entire basin and slowly place it into clean water, but do not let the water cover the top of the basin. It is best if the water is almost as high as the sand. Wait until the surface of the soil shows signs of moisture, then slowly lift it out. Place in a place with suitable light.

After completing the above steps, if you find that the soil is dry, you can repeat the above steps or spray water directly, but the water outlet of the pot must be very thin. If you do this, seedlings will appear after a week.

You can't just ignore them after they sprout. You need to pay attention to their light and moisture retention, especially in winter, you must keep them warm and prevent cold. When the spring of the second year comes, this small flower can bloom continuously for about 3 months. Even if there is no response in the second year, it will definitely bloom in the third year.

Okay, the above is the method of planting the seeds of this flower, but compared to the division method, this may be a little more difficult. But friends who are willing can try it as much as they want.
