Clematis is a very beautiful flower, and many gardeners like to plant this flower on their plot. Let's figure it out today in how to multiply Clematis with cuttings and what you need to know.
Flower shilling time
If you decide to breed Clematis, the method of green shuttless is the most relevant, especially if you are a young, novice gardener.
First of all, you need to deal with when it is worth the shilling. In this case, it all depends on what kind of plants are located. It is believed that the most viable cuttings are those that were cut before the flowering process began. This process is carried out normally in the spring, in the middle of the spring season.
Despite this, some experts believe that Clematis is needed in the middle of summer, namely, in June. It is believed that cutting the cuttings is necessary at the moment when the buds begin to appear, because during this period there are a large number of biostimulants in shoots.
Those who decide to shine clematis in autumn must remember that cuttings cut at this time are not very good.
The design process occurs as follows:
- Green cuttings should be prepared with Clematis bushes, which for more than three years, it is impossible to take cuttings from young plants, because it is meaningless.
- Cutting the cuttings is needed at a height of 28 cm from the ground (it is necessary to cut into mandatory directly from the uterine bushes).
- The optimal option to cut - shoots that grow on the side (even better, if they rose after Clematis was strongly cropped). It is they who will promptly start the root system.
- The roots of the cuttings are very bad, which are cut off from the top of the plant, so have this factor in mind. Among other things, when you choose a stalk, it is better to choose the one that has one node.
Cut a cutlery
You must also remember the following cutting rules for cutting:
- Make a slice must be done very sharp, ended with a thin blade knife
- From the node it is necessary to retreat centimeters 7 and only then to do the cutout, but the straight cut will need to make a couple of centimeters above the node itself - this is an important rule in the process under consideration.
- If you cut the stem and there are quite large leaves on it, they will need to shorten. At least on the third part.
- In the event that the interrivalent on the shoot is very short, and does not exceed three centimeters, then the right way out of this situation is to leave a couple of nodes.
- The lower leaves in this case should be completely removed, while the upper, the gardener will have to shorten a little.
- After the cuttings are cut off from the bush, it is necessary to put them in a vessel with running water and put in a dark place (you can not store cuttings on direct sunlight).
To root the cuttings of Clematis, as in water, so in and open soil.

Not always the root system on cuttings is developing quite quickly, which is why sometimes it becomes simply necessary to carry out the process of rooting these processes, and how it is done, we will understand more.
First of all, you need to find out exactly where it is to carry out such a process. Most often, greenhouses with different coatings, tunnels made from polyethylene, or simply at home are chosen to carry out such a process.
Often use the following approach, which is called - Cold Greenhouse:
- To do this, it is necessary to pre-accurate the soil in the place where you get out to plant Clematis cuttings.
- Now it is necessary to put boxes in which there is no bottom.
- Now it's time to land the cuttings, after which you immediately need to cover the top of the box walls with a dense film.
In the event that you set the arcs from the rigid wire, and then take and pull the film on them, and then cover the boxes, then you will succeed, the so-called tunnel.
Do not forget that the soil, where you will plant sprouts, should be without weeds, diseases and among other things, also the soil must be not heavy, but loose. Experts are very often used as a substrate for planting cuttings, a mixture of peat and sand.
In order to speed up the rooting, all materials used should be treated with growth regulators, for example, heteroacexin. The solution is quite simple:
- 1 Tablet must be dissolved in the floor of a flow water (one can also make a similar composition, dissolving only a couple of sodium gram of humate only in a liter of flowing water)
- The material you prepared for the landing will need to dip in the solution prepared by you, there it will have to be about semissing.
- After the expiration of the above time, it is possible to plant cuttings into the soil, and the distance between them should be 4-7 cm.
It is worth noting that Clematis are beautiful and lush flowers, and as it turned out that it is not so difficult to transplanting them and developing with the help of the shilling.
Cuttings need to choose carefully, so it's worth spending a sufficient amount of time and your strength. From your choice will depend on the qualitative characteristics of the future plants.
