To prepare cuttings of lilies, you need to choose shoots that have not yet formed a flower bud.





It is easier to do this at the beginning of summer. Cut the lily stem under the root.





Then it should be divided into cuttings with 4-5 leaves. The cut at the bottom of each cutting should be oblique, and at the top - straight.





Leave no more than two upper leaves (you can even shorten them by half). Lower ones carefully separate. In the sinuses of the lower leaves, roots and small bulbs will subsequently form.

To accelerate the process of root formation, the cuttings should be covered with grooves (solder) and soaked in a solution of heteroauxin (root growth stimulant) for 6 hours.





Plant cuttings should be in a partially shaded place at a distance of 15-20 cm from each other. The soil should be nutritious and moist, but lilies do not like excessive moisture.

It is better to insert cuttings into the ground at an angle of 45 degrees, with an oblique cut down. All sinuses of cropped leaves should be underground.

Reproduction of the lily with leaves Collect the remaining leaves after cutting the cuttings and lower them with the part that is attached to the stem, in the archer.





Make a groove in loose soil and plant the leaves in groups of 5 pieces, tilting, like cuttings, at an angle of 45 degrees. In this case, the lower third of the leaf should be tightly covered with soil.

In the Middle Ages, every earthly garden was considered a symbol of heaven. Gardens were broken at monasteries, later in castles. And the central place in them was given to plants imbued with Christian symbols, primarily lilies.
