How to make a tricky cut?

To multiply a plant, there are several methods known as vegetative reproductions or asexual reproductions. In fact, in the plant kingdom, operations can be used as a graft or sponsorship in order to obtain organisms with the same genomes.

As regards passiflore in particular, We can consider cutting for its multiplication. Let's take a closer look at the phases of this approach and how to do it.

What is passiflore?

Passofrey is a climbing plant, with a very original flower. The latter consists of the association of different colors including blue, pink, red, purple and white. The flower consists of three floors. This harmony of color and its characteristic petals distinguish it from other flowers. It blooms during the summer and its flowers are accompanied by a fairly soft perfume.

With solid and persistent leaves of a beautiful green color, Passifree can reach a height of about 2 meters when it is mature. It is also equipped with tears that allow him to roll around the supports or fences that support him.

The length of the Liana, on the other hand, produced within 4-6 meters, depending on the varieties. Papofreation comes from the Passifloraceae family which has 600 varieties. What is the most widespread in France is blue passiflore. This is what is most suitable for our climatic conditions and the characteristics of the soil.

At first glance, we opt for this flower for its decorative character. In fact, it goes perfectly with arcades and walls, giving them a very romantic side. In addition, Passiflore also has many virtues and health benefits. It is also cultivated for the fruit that comes: the fruit of the passion, a very exotic fruit.

Origin of Passiflore

If we look at its etymological origin, the word passiflore is formed by the association of two words: Passio, Latin word which means passion and flora which means flower. In Latin, his name is «Passiflora». The name was attributed to him following the appearance of the 3 parts of the flower that very closely remember the passion of Jesus Christ (the nails, the hammers and the crown of thorns). We also know under the name Fleur de la PassionWhere the famous fruits of passion are born.

Origi the subtropical regions of America. Historically, Once it was planted in the Aztec Sovereign Gardens. When the Spaniards arrived in America, they then discovered the use of the Amerinds of this plant for health. As a result, they then began to plant it in Spain, around the 18th century. Since then, it has spread throughout Europe and other continents. Passofrey has therefore experienced several uses in the world of modern pharmacology.

Plantation

It can be said that it is easy to plant because it is not particularly demanding on the nature of the soil in which it is planted. However, it is better to choose a ground that is not too wet, that is to say that it is well drained. The plantation season is performed in spring or autumn, never in winter. But in both cases, the best is to avoid gel periods. In fact, too low a temperature could be fatal from passiflore. However, the warmth is too strong does not adapt to it even if it needs the sun to develop perfectly. To plant in the ground, the rustic species or Tasifstro Cairera It is the most suitable.

The other species will be better in a pot or tank that can be put inside, as a plant of apartments. There they will be better protected by bad weather, especially cold. The soil in which the flower is planted should be rather rich and, as mentioned above, with a good drainage.

Once the flower has been planted, it will be necessary to water it regularly during this first period of his life. A contribution of fertilizers specifically designed for flowering plants will also be an advantage to guarantee its growth in the event that it is planted on economic ground.

Cut

The two main types of passifying multiplication are sowing and cutting. The first consists in the use of cereals and cultivating them first in a German. The latter is made up of a mixture of land and sand for drainage. Then, the plants are transplanted into a pot or directly in the ground, after 2 or 3 weeks.

We will press more attention to the second option that is cutting.

• When to cut?

First of all, The season in which the cut is carried out is during the summer periodThat is to say between June and September. In fact, although the plant does not tolerate for extreme temperatures (neither too hot nor too cold), this operation is performed in the middle of the hot season. It is knowing that you can cut a cut on individuals of all ages.

• Cutting in water

There are two types of possible cuttings regarding passion. The first is the cut in water and the second is a direct cutThat is to say that we do not need to immerse the cut in the water but is transplanted directly to Earth.

For the cuttings in the water, we will need a jar or a container to put the water. If you want an optimal result, the best is to use rainwater instead of tap water. Indeed, Rainwater contains nitrogenThis is what differentiates it from tap water. In addition, it is devoid of any chemical product used to purify water.

So we cut a tricky branch. We choose a branch of the year that we cut on a knot, since it will be from the knot that the roots will appear. So we immerse this pre -tags in the water.

Full of coal are added to maintain the status of clean water. In the event that we cannot get coal, it will therefore be advisable to change the water from the jar every 2 weeks approximately so that the water is not saturated. Do we definitely ask ourselves when it will be necessary to plant the cut in the ground or in pots? Well, there is no waiting time because it varies according to the plants.

Only once the roots reach a length of 2 cm or 3 cm, can they be transplanted. For transplantation, The soil should be mixed with a little sand so that its roots can develop and that they adapt to its new environment.

• Direct cut on earth

The direct cut on earth is also another option. The first thing to do is to prepare the pot or bac that will receive a stubborn. As for the cutting of the water, we take a part of the phantan with a length of about 20 cm, containing a node and that does not transport a flower. In fact, the presence of the flower will be able to exhaust the plant during the first stage of its growth. In the same way for the leaves, it will be necessary to keep only one line. To be sure, It is better to take several branches that we transmit for the future, in the event that some do not push.

We can use the ground ready, but it should be emphasized that it will be the soil for sowing and not for plants already in full maturity. Once the jar is ready to receive the branch, you just cut, we dig a hole using a stick.

We will therefore cry the cut in this hole. We take care to put the floor well without suffocating the plant too much. Finally, we water with water. It should be noted that the new plants will need some humidity and a fairly high temperature.

• The advantages of the cuttings with respect to sowing

The cut of a plant is a rapid, economic and ecological reproduction means. In fact, since we already start from a branch with a height of 20 cm, this already represents a very large advance compared to a sowing plant whose development will take longer.

Given the method of sowing mentioned above, we can also deduce that this type of multiplication is very cheap. In fact, it is not necessary to obtain specific equipment. The plantation often does not even require the use of fertilizers. The success rate is also quite high. In addition, the plants that arrive there are more vigorous and more resistant in general. However, It should be noted that this type of asexual reproduction is intended only for seedless plants.

• Couture Maintenance Company

Although a tricky cut is quite resistant, the best is to protect it from too present sun. So we use a bell to preserve it from the sun, without completely depriving it of heat. This bell will protect the plant during these first two weeks and will be removed later.

In the event that you cry trivial in a pot and not in the ground, it is better to host it in a well -enlightened and not too cold place in winter. You should know that the risk of transmission of the disease is quite high in the cuttings. Consequently, as soon as you choose the stem we transplant, we must ensure that it is healthy and that it does not bring illness. During the first weeks of passion growth, it will have to be watered regularly to bring it the nutrients that will have to flourish and fruit later.

Benefits of plants

In addition to being an ornamental plant, Papofreation is also a medicinal plant par excellence. In fact, its healing characteristics come from its leaves and flowers. Acts first on the nervous system as a calm, It is also anxiolytic.

It is therefore used when you are in a state of stress or excitations, and above all if this state is accompanied by muscle tension. In fact, in case of very important stress, it may also be that the shoulders and neck are subject to annoying tensions. It is also an excellent muscle relaxant.

He therefore acts on physical but also mental health. This extraordinary plant also allows you to soothe anxiety attacks because it calms down and relaxes. However, you should know that to heal or alleviate, it will be necessary to follow a cure of several days, or even several weeks so that you can observe the benefits of this plant.

It will therefore depend on the state of stress in which we are. He also regulates sleep and is a powerful remedy against insomnia. Since it acts very well on stress, it is also indicated in case of high blood pressure and moderate heart problems.

It should be noted that you can take the trial in different forms. The easiest way is to consume it as a tea tied prepared with a flexible flower that has been boiled in water.

There are also sachets of tea made by this plant that is easily found in trade. You can also get capsules or stepfall capsules in pharmacies.

Another form are also liquid extracts, a small part of which may be sufficient for pharmaceutical uses.
