Cuttings many perennials. Often believe that spring is the best time for this kind of reproduction. But this is a misconception because of grafted possible during the entire growing season. The main thing is not to delay it until the autumn, to have time to take root cuttings in winter.

What are ornamental plants propagated from cuttings
Well propagated by cuttings tree, shrub and subshrub form. They include roses, Trumpet, clematis, hydrangea, lilac, Buddleja, Brugmansia, rhododendron and many others.
There is an experience of cuttings of perennial and annual herbaceous plants, such as chrysanthemums, sentyabrinki, sedum, phlox, petunia, sweet tobacco.
Rooting can even flowers from bouquets. Thus, if liked flowering plant, it is not necessary to wait for the spring or autumn, to get this instance by dividing the bush. Enough to cut 1 Escape and plant them according to the rules.
rules grafting
Thus, we cherenkuem perennials. There are several types of cuttings:
- semilignified (already covered with bark);
- green (very young shoots of shrubs and dwarf shrubs);
- stem (shoots of herbaceous perennials).
The cuttings are cut with a sharp knife, leaving them 3-4 knots. The lower section of an oblique doing to increase the suction area of the moisture, and the top is cut straight. Some growers prefer to harvest the shoots for cuttings, cutting them with a fragment of the stem from which they branched off. Cut off their need in cloudy weather, this time in the stem of the plant contains more moisture. Such planting root faster. Lower nodes of the cuttings should be freed from the leaves. After dipping into the ground adventitious roots will grow in their place.
Cuttings treated with any biostimulant. They are soaked for 6-10 hours in a solution of "IAA" "Epin" or "Kornevina". Chemicals can be replaced willow water infusion onion skin, honey, yeast, or solution of succinic acid.
For cuttings should prepare in advance a kind of incubator. To do this, take a box or tray for seedlings, which were placed on the bottom of the drainage layer of gravel or crushed brick. It is covered with a mixture of fertile land and compost, taken in equal parts. The upper layer consists of washed river sand. Place the cuttings so that the 2 lower internodes were completely in the sand. In this substrate, they quickly take root and regrown roots will draw power from the soil.
It is necessary to organize such a watering regime, to avoid stagnation of water in the trays, but the sand was always wet. Planted cuttings cover the film by mimicking a mini-greenhouse. The light should be diffused.
When the cuttings are rooted and get stronger, they were first habituated to the natural environment, gradually opening the film, and only then they are planted in open ground at a fixed place. The first year the young plants insulated layer of soil or compost.
New plants can be obtained by layering. This is a more gentle method of reproduction. For this next to a bush dig a shallow hole. Choose a healthy young runaway and removed from his lower leaves. Then bends him to the ground and locked in the hole with metal studs. The hole is filled with a mixture of sand with humus and regular watering. Separated from the mother plant seedling better the next year.
This method of reproduction always give satisfactory results. It is suitable for clematis, climbing roses, honeysuckle, Trumpet and other ornamental shrubs.
