Detailed Explanation of Scientific Propagation Methods and Techniques for Lilies

Nursery Stock 0 views
Lilies can be propagated by seed sowing, scale cuttings, separating small bulbs, and separating bulbils, but separating small bulbs and scale cuttings are the main methods. ① Separating small bulbs. The primary requirement is to have enough small bulbs. Methods to increase the number of small bulbs include: a. When planting large bulbs, increase the depth appropriately. b. Before and after flowering, cut off the stems and leaves more than 40 cm above ground. c. After flowering, cut the stems with leaves into small sections with 3-4 leaves and shallowly bury them in moist sandy soil. Small bulbs planted for 2 years can then flower. ② Scale cuttings

② Scale cutting propagation: Select well-developed lilies, dig them out after flowering and dry them in the shade for a few days, take the middle scales, insert them into sandy soil with the base facing down, with the tips slightly exposed. Shade them and keep the soil moist. After 2-3 months, small bulbs will form. The small bulbs need 2 years of cultivation to become flowering bulbs.
