When to take cuttings of Bauhinia tree

When to take cuttings of Bauhinia tree

1. Which month will it be held?

The Bauhinia tree has the highest activity when the temperature is around 15-20℃ and the humidity is maintained at 80-90%. It is best to do it in the growing season of early summer when the temperature is just right and it will not rot due to long-term heat. The humidity in the air is also high, which is conducive to its survival. In addition to summer, you can also choose the early spring season before the leaves grow. At this time, the growth momentum is better and it is also conducive to the later growth recovery.

2. Cutting method

1. Branches: Cut one- or two-year-old branches as cuttings. It is best to choose sturdy ones. The length does not need to be too long, just about 10 cm. The lower part should be cut obliquely to increase the absorption area. Remove the leaves near the bottom and do not leave them on top to prevent rot.

2. Substrate: The substrate must be breathable and well-drained. Vermiculite and river sand are the best choices. These two substrates allow for the fastest rooting. Keep the substrate pure and sterilize it in the sun before use.

3. Cutting: Insert the branches into the sand bed and place it in a semi-shaded environment. Apply enough water at the beginning to ensure thorough watering. When the humidity is low in the later stage, spray water to keep it moist. Keeping the surrounding temperature between 20-25℃ is conducive to rooting.
