It requires a warm and humid climate, loose, fertile and well-drained sandy soil, and thrive in acid soil. Poor growth in alkaline soil. Strong root germination. The ground part of the branches is easy to root.

Geographical distribution of Jasminum nudiflorum Lindl.

Jasminum nudiflorum Lindl is produced in China's Gansu, Shaanxi, Sichuan, northwestern Yunnan, and southeastern Tibet. In the bushes on the green hillside, the altitude is 800-2 000 meters. It is commonly cultivated in China and around the world.

The breeding method of Jasminum nudiflorum Lindl.

Jasminum nudiflorum Lindl. is mainly cuttings, and can also be reproduced by layering and ramets. Cuttings: Spring, summer, and autumn can be carried out. Cut semi-ligninized branches 12-15 cm long, insert them into sandy soil, keep moist, and take root in about 15 days. Layering: Shallowly bury the longer branches in sand, without scratching, take root after 40-50 days, and separate and transplant from the mother plant in the following spring. Rectification: Can be carried out when buds germinate in spring. When transplanting in spring, part of the above-ground branches and trunks should be cut off, and the soil should be brought with them. Dry cuttings can also be used, that is, after cutting in a well-built seedbed, and water is irrigated. Cuttings can be carried out from mid-October to mid-November or in spring. After rooting, it can be planted separately, and it can also be ramified or layered for reproduction.

Cultivation techniques of Jasminum nudiflorum Lindl.

Pick

Cuttings can be carried out in spring, summer, and autumn. Cut semi-lignified branches 12-15 cm long, insert them into sandy soil, keep them moist, and take about 15 days to root. The longer branches of Jasminum nudiflorum Lindl. are shallowly buried in sand, without scratching, they take root after 40-50 days, and they are separated and transplanted from the mother plant in the following spring.

Ramets

It can be done in spring when the buds of Jasminum nudiflorum Lindl. are sprouting. When transplanting in spring, part of the above-ground branches and trunks should be cut off, and the soil should be brought with them. During the growth process, pay attention to the soil not being able to accumulate water and excessive drought, and properly fertilize 2-3 times before and after flowering. Pruning and shaping should be done in autumn and winter to keep many new flowers.

Short cut

Jasminum nudiflorum Lindl. forms flower buds on the 1-year-old branches and blooms in the second year from late winter to spring. Therefore, all flowering branches should be cut short after the flowers die each year to promote the growth of more lateral branches, increase the number of flowers, and strengthen fertilizer and water management .

Prune after blooming in spring, apply a decomposed cake fertilizer or base fertilizer, and apply manure every half month during the growing season. Remember to add more phosphorus and potassium fertilizers in the late growth period, so that after pruning, it can promote multiple strong branches. In daily management, the soil is mainly kept moist, not dry and not watered. When the climate is dry, the water can be used to increase the humidity, and the water in the basin should be prevented after the rain. In summer, when there is a high temperature in the mouth, moving Jasminum nudiflorum Lindl. to a semi-shade place will be more beneficial to its growth. Before and after the Spring Festival, move the pots into a greenhouse or a plastic greenhouse, and keep the room temperature at about 15°C. Flowers will be visible in about 15 days.

Grafting

Water wax seedlings with a diameter at breast height of 2cm or more can be selected. When they sprout in early spring, they can be connected at 1m or at a certain height. Pick Jasminum nudiflorum Lindl. The branch length is 8-10cm as scion for grafting. After connecting, tie it tightly with a film and put it in a plastic bag. Gradually tear the bag to ventilate the seedlings after drawing the branches alive, and pull the side branches to promote the crown shape.
