How to propagate boxwood and thuja
Arborvitae and boxwood, as well, and other plants in the stores are not cheap. Yes, and guarantees that the purchased seedlings take root, no. So it makes sense to master the cuttings. This method of propagation of the perennials is not difficult, you just need to know some peculiarities of each particular type of plant. Planting material for 1-2 seasons you can get well, and myself will remain, and will to share, and to sell or rent on the implementation is not forbidden.
Boxwood: cuttings and Optimum rooting time for cuttings of boxwood – June-July. It was during this period is mowing the bushes. Young plants, obtained from cuttings time to root thoroughly and usually well over-winter with little shelter. From cut shoots of boxwood to choose suitable for grafting shoots. They should be well ripened, but not yet lignified.
The cuttings should be cut with a length of 10-13 cm is the Tool you need to disinfect (hold it over a flame and cooled or treated with alcohol). It is better to use a well-sharpened knife, secateurs, constrict tissue, rooting of cuttings is difficult. The lower section must be done under the kidney obliquely. To touch your hands to cut undesirable. The bottom leaves of the cutting you need to uninstall (better to cut, leaving the top not more than 7 PCs.
Rooting cuttings of boxwood, preferably in a mixture of leaf or sod of earth and sand. The place should be selected in the penumbra. So when transplanting not to damage the young roots in the soil, press trim the plastic bottles without a bottom (cylinders with a height of 10-12 cm), leaving the top 1-2 cm above the soil surface.
The lower part of the prepared cuttings before planting should be treated with a stimulator of root formation (to put in 4-6 hours in a solution of IAA or opurity "Carnevino"). When planting all cleaned from the leaf part of the stem should be sunk. In the ground need to make a hole (for example, pencil or stick), insert the shaft and compress the soil around it, to avoid voids, water. To maintain high humidity rooted cuttings should be covered with banks, and with a large number of set arcs and pulling the film.
Care is regular watering and removal of weeds at an early stage. After about a month the cuttings will form roots and after 2 months they can be transplanted to a permanent place. If you have used trim the plastic bottles, the transplanting is painless, the cylinder is removed through the top.
The intricacies of breeding arborvitae Thuja occidentalis in recent years has become frequently used in landscape design. It is not only decorative, but also useful. To grow this gorgeous plant from cuttings. Unlike boxwood, arborvitae cuttings it is advisable to use 2-3-year-old lignified shoots with a length of 25-30 cm From semilignified gains of the current year (10-15 cm) also can be grown thuja, but the percentage of survival will be somewhat lower.
With "promenade", i.e. a piece of old wood, cuttings of thuja root much better. Selected escape need sharp movement to tear off from the parent plant. The lower needles (modified leaves) should be removed. The prepared cuttings are preferably dipped in "Kornevin" before planting.
To plant cuttings in a greenhouse (hothouse), pot or directly in soil, pre-prepared place. In the garden the soil is necessary to add sand and peat (ratio of all three components 1:1:1), to shed an antifungal drug (potassium permanganate, "Phytosporin-M or etc.).
If a lot of cuttings, then the optimal distance between adjacent of about 5 cm, you Can use the above method of landing using scraps of plastic bottles. By the way, the top part of the bottle with lid is suitable as a cover to maintain high humidity. Too bury the cuttings of thuja: it is enough 1,5-2 see
Care is watering, and best of frequent spraying, especially at first, and weeding. For the winter young plants need to insulate the leaf litter, spruce branches and sawdust, and when cold down to — 5° C to cover the film. To transplant arborvitae permanent place in the spring, always with preservation of earthen coma.
I hope that with the rooting of boxwood and arborvitae problems will not arise, and when the plants grow up your site will be transformed for the better.published
