How to propagate Abelia? Grow it this way and it will bloom with a tree full of white flowers
Abelia is an evergreen shrub, with golden-edged, golden-centred and red-flowered types. Its leaves are relatively small, and the leaves are oblong and lanceolate in shape. The colour is usually dark green and looks very glossy. Although the flowers of Abelia are relatively small, the flower shape is very beautiful. Just grow one at home and it can achieve a very beautiful effect.
How to propagate Abelia
Master the division propagation method and timing
Abelia can be divided in April each year, and then only Abelia with 6 leaves can be divided, and a temperature of around 30°C must be maintained, so that Abelia can take root.
The division method
For division, the main plant can be moved out of the flower pot, and then the new shoots can be broken off. If the new shoots are pressed tightly against the root stem, the new shoots can be cut off. If the new shoots show no roots, make the cut into a smooth flat opening, so that Abelia can take root better.
Watering Abelia
After the Abelia wound is treated, it can be disinfected in time and placed in a cool, ventilated place. Then, after the wound has dried and shrunk, it can be planted in time. At the same time, watering is also very important. After planting, water thoroughly in time, and just spray water on the leaf surface and the top of the flower soil.
The cutting propagation method
Abelia can be propagated by cuttings. Generally, cuttings can be taken in every season of the year. In winter and early spring, some mature branches can be chosen for cuttings, and they can bloom in the same year. In spring, summer and autumn and other seasons, mature branches or small young shoots can be used for cuttings. Rooting powder can be used to treat the roots, and then they can be placed into the dug holes.
When Abelia is propagated by cuttings, it generally takes 3-5 days to take root, and the root system is also very developed, and the survival rate is also very high. It is very suitable for cuttings when there is a large demand. Flower lovers can take cuttings according to their own preferences and operating conditions. In this way, Abelia can grow better and bloom with a tree full of white flowers.
