How to propagate heather

Seed propagation of Photinia

Heather has many fruits, so its seeds are widely distributed. Heather seeds can be harvested in November every year. After harvesting, they should be soaked in clean water. When the seeds are almost fermented, rub off the seed coat with your hands. After rinsing the seeds, store them well and wait for sowing next year. Water the nutrient-rich potting soil thoroughly and set aside. Take out the stored seeds, process them slightly, and then evenly sow them in the potting soil. Then cover the potting soil with a layer of loose soil and apply some fertilizer, then you can wait for it to germinate and bloom.

Cutting propagation of Photinia

First of all, you need to choose a good flower pot, preferably with small holes at the bottom to ensure good drainage, and then disinfect the flower pot. The season for cuttings is mainly in the rainy season. Select healthy paper strips of about ten centimeters. Note that the cut of the cuttings must be smooth. You can also take mature branches of about one year old for cuttings in early spring. The bottom of the cuttings should be inserted into the potting soil to a depth of about two-thirds. Then water it. Be sure to water it thoroughly, then cover it with plastic film, and finally cover it with a layer of shade net.
