Cutting propagation can be carried out after flowering of the branches of snow willow.
Cutting propagation can be carried out after the branches of Tamarix chinensis bloom. After flowering, Tamarix chinensis should be trimmed with sharp scissors to reduce the loss of nutrients. In addition, the branches that grow too long should be cut off to reduce the consumption of nutrients and make Tamarix chinensis take root more easily.
Suitable substrate should be selected when cutting Tamarix chinensis. Snow willow branches are suitable for growing in loose and fertile soil, so when cutting, we should choose flowerpots with good drainage and add nutrient soil to them. The nutrient soil needs to be disinfected before it is put into the pot, so that the branches of Tamarix can grow healthily.
Before cutting, the branches should be soaked in rooting water 1 ~ 2 hours to improve the survival rate after cutting. After that, you can insert the dry branches of the snow willow into the soil, compact the surrounding soil with your fingers, and then move the dry branches of the snow willow to a ventilated and cool place for maintenance, so that the snow willow can quickly recover its growth.
When willow branches are maintained, they need to be watered once every 1 ~ 2 weeks, and tap water can be allowed to stand for a while before watering. After the branches of Tamarix chinensis grow new buds, it is necessary to apply nitrogen fertilizer to accelerate the growth of Tamarix chinensis branches. In addition, it is necessary to core the dry branches of snow willow to promote the germination of side branches.
