How to cultivate succulent coral trees, methods and matters needing attention

Coral trees can be propagated mainly by cutting and sowing, but they are rarely used. Generally speaking, cutting propagation is the fastest, succulents are not tolerant to stagnant water, and hydroponics is rarely used for propagation.

Reproductive time of fleshy coral trees

Generally, succulent coral trees are cut in mid-June, with high survival rate, and can also be cut in mid-September in autumn, but the root system grows slowly and is easy to overwinter.

Cutting propagation method of coral tree

Select the stout upper branch as the cutting, with the length of 12- 15 cm and 2-3 nodes on it. The heel broken by two branches has a high survival rate. Cut with it, water it once after cutting, and do a good job of shading. In the future, the amount of watering will be less and less, and the air humidity will be maintained. Rooting began 20 days after cutting.

Seed and propagation of coral trees

The seeds of succulent coral trees can be collected in late June at 5438+ 10, washed and dried in the shade in a ventilated place. They can be planted in winter or wet sand, in the early spring of the following year, and unearthed in late May. Seedlings are not resistant to strong light and should be shaded in time. The seedling height in that year was about 10 cm.

Matters needing attention in reproduction of coral trees

Coral tree roots are fragile and easy to break, so attention should be paid to protection when planting, and planting should be done with digging and planting, watering once after planting, so that roots and soil can be closely combined, and maintenance management should be strengthened in the later stage.
