Propagation methods of Aesculus

In autumn, the stored seeds of Aesculus can be sown in loam, with the navel downward and the top covered with thin soil. In April, the strong branches are cut and peeled in a ring. Plastic bags are put on the outside and packed with nutritious soil. Roots grow in autumn. In the next spring, they are cut and planted separately. In summer, the young shoots of the same year can be selected for cutting, which can be inserted into the drainage and air permeable substrate.
