Lily – the bright blossoming plant of extraordinary beauty. The perfection and grace of peculiar form of flowers impresses and bewitches. Variety of shades and pleasant aroma distinguish these fine flowers against the background of other flowers. Make multiple copies lilies in several ways.

Instruction

1. Reproduction by children. It is desirable to make multiple copies lilies in this way at the end of August or the beginning of September. Accurately separate children who were formed on underground part of stalk, from maternal plant. Plant them in specially prepared soil. After disembarkation to the constant place do not forget to humidify the earth.

2. Reproduction by bulbs. Approximately on 3-4 year of life at plant the slot of bulbs is formed. Separate bulb with sufficient root system in the middle of August. Consider that after blossoming of lily are strongly exhausted. Wait 1-1.5 months that the bulb has gained strength, became dense, large and elastic. In it the warm atmosphere, power supply and also availability of moisture will promote. Try not to cut off roots. Slots of bulbs not always easily break up therefore sometimes they should be divided by force (hands, without resorting to tools). Plant bulbs in well moistened soil, on depth of 10-15 cm.

3. Reproduction by bulbochka. In such a way not all grades of lily breed, but some form stem kidneys (bulbochka) in bosom of leaves. On one escape about 200 pieces of similar bulb develop. To raise plant bulbonosnost, do not forget to delete deflowered buds in time and to regularly humidify the soil. At the end of August of bulbochka easily separate from the main stalk. Bring together them and process in weak solution of potassium permanganate (about 15-20 minutes). Then land to the soil on depth of 3-5 cm. Surely leave distance between holes of 10-15 cm. In the winter of landing cover with sawdust, leaves or peat.

4. Reproduction by bulbous scales. This way from one bulb you can collect up to 150 scales of planting stock. The most optimum period for reproduction of this type – spring. Choose scales large, fleshy, healthy and without spots. Remove scales from bulb and process in weak solution of potassium permanganate. Dry them and remove in clean plastic bag for 1-1.5 months. It is necessary to store bag with scales in the dark place at the room temperature. One week prior to landing remove scales in the fridge that bulbs were formed. Land the received hybrid in boxes, soil or hotbeds. The soil has to be well humidified and protected from strong winds and direct hit of sunlight.
