First, the grafting time of osmanthus trees

Second, the grafting method of osmanthus trees

According to long-term work practice, we found that both grafting methods have their suitable time periods. Cutting method is more suitable for spring, and grafting in autumn is the best choice. It's spring now, so let's talk about cutting.

1, making rootstock

First, find a pot of plants that grow well and choose one of the stout branches as the rootstock. Then, when making the rootstock, cut the branches horizontally from 10- 15CM above the ground, and dig a U-shaped groove on one side of the rootstock, which is about 2.5CM long, and the groove should not be too deep to expose the xylem.

2. Treatment of scion

Choose annual, healthy and disease-free branches from the robust osmanthus tree and cut them as scions. Pay attention to the scion with 2 leaves and 3 new buds, and then cut off the tree cortex at the bottom of the scion to expose the xylem.

3. Transplantation method

Put the treated scion into the U-shaped groove of the rootstock, so that the scion is closely attached to the xylem of the rootstock, and finally tie it with a rope. If the grafting is successful, it will grow normally after a period of time.
