Girlish grapes or parthenocissus are easily identifiable in the suburban areas. It completely covers fences, arbours and facades. The plant is good because it will adorn any object in a short time. In addition, it is frost-resistant, which makes it easier to care for it.
Many plants are used for plant breeding. But the most popular is the reproduction of maiden grapes with cuttings.
Reproduction of a girlish grapes in the summer
Parthenocissus is a unpretentious plant, so whatever method is chosen, it will grow well. Reproduction of girlish grapes with green cuttings is the way to get the continuation of the main plant. It is performed from early spring until late autumn. But the best option is to hold it in the summer season. The process involves the following:
- First, a part of the vine is cut off from last year's shoots. To plant more quickly rooted, it is better to choose a stem with small outgrowths. New rootlets will only grow if the vine has at least 3 knots. They will give life to new branches.
- The choice of a place is easy. The main thing is that it should be darkened. Also, drafts should be excluded.
- Carrying out the landing. A very effective way is to place seedlings in pots with a peat-clay substrate. Then the rooting of the vine of the girlish virgin, reproduction by cuttings will pass faster. Since the seedlings are first planted in pots, they are transported to the open ground from the middle of spring to the end of summer. When the seedlings are lowered into the ground, they are buried by the knot. Be sure to install a support. Good growth will help to cover the seedlings with a pot or jar.
- After planting, great importance is attached to watering. It is carried out regularly. The future bush also protects the sun's rays, for which it is covered with burlap. By the next spring the seedling can be transplanted into the open ground.
It should be borne in mind that the vegetative mode of breeding will be effective until mid-August. If you hesitate, then the roots of the plant will not have time to prepare for the winter. Reproduction of girlish grape with cuttings is not an easy task. But the result will be spectacular when the shoots seem to show up and begin to close the wall.
The advantage of multiplying girlish grapes with cuttings in summer is that the survival rate of seedlings is almost absolute. Carrying this process will allow you to grow a plant that will decorate your territory and will yield a good harvest.
