When is the best time to repot the happy tree?

Key points of propagation:

1. Sowing and planting of Happy Tree: It can be carried out at the end of December. When the capsule is close to cracking and the seeds are fully mature, the long capsules are harvested and dried. Then take out the winged seed grains, rub them and lift off the membranous seed wing fragments, and store them dry until sowing in the next spring. Dried seeds should be soaked for 3 to 4 hours between March and April, then spread out to dry slightly, then mixed with sand and soil and then sown on the prepared seedbed, lightly covered with a thin layer of soil and covered with a film to retain moisture. After the seeds have emerged, remove the film and build a sparse shade shed to block the light. When it grows 2 to 3 true leaves, it can be transplanted with a ball of soil to expand the distance. You can also wait until it grows 4 to 5 large leaves before transplanting it into a pot or courtyard.

2. Happy tree cutting planting: It can be carried out from March to April. When the ambient temperature reaches about 15°C, cut off 1 to 2-year-old woody branches, about 15 to 20cm long. Cut off all the leaves, and the lower incision should be located 0.5cm below the node. Cut it into the sandy soil seedbed. The depth of the cutting into the soil is about 1/3 to 1/2 of the ear length. During the healing and rooting period of the lower cut, water should be sprayed to keep the seedbed moist. After it has developed a complete root system, it can be transplanted into a pot or garden with a ball of soil.

3. Layering planting of happy tree: It can be carried out between March and April. Under the nodes of 2-year-old strong branches or stems, perform circular peeling. The peeling width is generally the diameter of the stem to be layered. 2 times to 3 times. Under the girdling opening, tie a piece of 15cm×20cm plastic film. Use clean, moist peat soil or sandy loam and hold a soil ball with a diameter of 8 to 10cm at the girdling area. Then, wrap the soil ball with plastic film, leave a water outlet at the upper end, and tie it to the thick trunk to prevent it from sagging and being broken by the wind. At the end of autumn, after the girdling mouth has grown a relatively complete root system, cut it off from the mother plant and transplant it into a pot or garden.
