Goldulmen multiply
Are you already in possession of a golden elm and would like to expand your stock with another specimen? Before you make long journeys to the next tree nursery and pay dearly for the new tree, you can grow yourself another golden elm with the following guide.
Different possibilities of propagation
For the propagation of the golden elm there are two different possibilities, both of which have advantages and disadvantages:
The refinement
The propagation of a plant through refinement is a very complicated process, for which you must have expert knowledge. In most cases, only trained dealers use this technique. Small cuttings that have already been refined, you can buy in the nursery.
Propagation by offshoot
Nevertheless, it is worthwhile to start their own attempt and to attract a golden elm from their offshoots. Unfortunately, this method does not always succeed. Fortunately, the deciduous tree tends to form a very strong spur formation. You can intensify this inclination by cutting back your golden elm vigorously. Because the loss that the tree suffers on the earth's surface, he tries to compensate by the spread under the earth. Note, however, that promoting the foothills can certainly lead to undesirable consequences. Often the new shoots in beds or under stone slabs penetrate to the daylight, just where they destroy laborious garden sections.
So you proceed with the propagation of the golden elm by offshoots:
- look for young shoots near the stem of the tree of origin and carefully dig them out, being careful not to damage the roots. This would further enhance the foothills formation the foothills must have already formed enough own roots, so that the propagation succeed plant the removed foothills immediately elsewhere in the garden a well water the young golden elm, even in the next few days
