How To Propagation Anthurium Plant

How To Propagation Anthurium Plant - Anthurium propagation can be done by way of generative (seeds) and vegetative (seedlings or cuttings solution). Self-pollinating are rare and should be carried out cross-pollination (cross pollination) are made​​. This technique is a way of per-Most generative most appropriate, especially in the activities will breeding to produce hybrid seed Fl, which is a step further to give birth to new types are more varied.

Crosses made ​​will be considered successful when the following factors: (1) the parent crosses that will be used, (2) method, and (3) crossing time. By doing a superior selection of elders as a cross parent seed's good to be obtained with the advantages derived from its parent.
The purpose of this experiment is to get the cruciferous anthurium with a better variety. The expected results of these crosses can increase biodiversity and economic value of these plants.

Hybrid method that does is a cross between the species of Anthurium andreanum. Before crossing, made ​​an election or selection of elders crossing, both elder male and female elders. Selected from each pair crosses each one of the best flowers. For potted anthurium, elders used is a small plant with leaves or flowers are beautiful. To produce anthurium cut flowers, selected elders who have beautiful flowers, often flowering, flower stalks are long and sturdy, as well as a variety of flower colors.

The materials used are several different species of anthurium plants. As an elder female is kind of Sunset, Champion, Midori, Lady Jane Orange, Aromatic, Lady Jane Purple, and White Obake, and for male elders is Laura, Sunset, Pink Exotic, Hawaiian Butterfly, Lady Jane Red, Midori and Red Ati. The medium used for seed germination is husk charcoal, and for the community pot or compote husk charcoal plus compost is fine bamboo with a ratio of 1: 1. The instrument used was a small brush, petri dishes, pots and also compote or plastic tub measures 45 cm x 35 cm, paper labels and plastic bags.
Cross-pollination be realized artificially anthurium in the greenhouse the mountain, Ornamental Plants Research Center, from July 2003 until June 2004. Location is at the altitude 1100 m above sea level with temperatures 24-26 ° C during the day and l8-20 ° C at night and relative humidity (Rh) 70 - 90%.

Furthermore, the selected female flowers are pollinated ready, which is between 2-3 weeks after anthesis (Rosario 1991). Sign-pollinated flowers were ready there was flower occur on spadiks honey secretion (mucus) and when it will hold a slippery or sticky terrace. Visually this can be seen in the presence of insect pollinators or ants on the spadiks. For selected male flower pollen flower that has been issued or pollen from spadiks, colored yellow, and the powder (Fig. 1). With the help of a brush or directly by hand, pollen fit into the petri dish and then applied to the stigma or spadiks flowers pollinated females that had been prepared.

Pollination carried out at 07:00 to 10:00 o'clock in the morning when the air was fresh, and or-l7.00 pukul15.00 afternoon when cold air return. Pollinated plants that are labeled as containing information about the elder female and male elders, crossing time (day, month and year), and the name of the breeders. Furthermore, the female flowers closed using a plastic bag and left closed for 2 weeks.

That is one of way we can do for the propagation of plants Anthurium, if you have any other way please share. Read our other articles such as Snake Plant Care
