After dividing plants, put them in a cool growth environment, and they will take root in about one month. It is better to divide plants once a year, which can make them better shaped and accumulate nutrients to make them bloom.

2. Tissue culture

This method is more suitable for large-scale planting. Its explants can use newly sprouted shoots, but it is difficult to contaminate. First, wash the underground stems of the mother plant, soak them in carbendazim solution for one day, and then put them in plastic bags for germination. The temperature is better to be controlled at about 25 ℃, and when the buds grow to 2cm, use the growth point inside as the explants, which is relatively polluted. Low dye
