3、SeedParts of the SeedSeeds are made up of 3 main parts.Seed Coat.Endosperm.Embryonic Plant.Planting SeedsPlanting depth depends on the size of the seeds.The larger the seed,the deeper it is planted.Example:Petunia seeds are planted shallower than beans,tomatoes,or marigolds because they are the smal

4、lest.Small seeds should be watered by bottom soaking.Planting SeedsSeeds are directly seeded when they are planted in the soil where they will grow to a saleable size.Germination flats are used if they are to be transplanted at a later time.When reusing germination flats,be sure to sterilize the fla

16、low them to grow on until large enough to pot up individually.Root CuttingsThe use of roots to reproduce plants.Should be spaced 3 inches apart in the rooting area.Step 1 Carefully Uncover The RootsThe best time to take root cuttings is when the plants are dormant which is usually between November a

17、nd February.At this time,there is a large amount of stored energy in the roots,and there is less stress on the parent plant because they are not actively growing and in as much need of their root system.Step 2Take Your Root CuttingsFor both woody plants and perennial plants,dont take more than one-t

18、hird of the roots off.This way you will leave enough roots for the parent plant to recover.Step 3Plant Your Root Cuttings1.Use a deep pot,raised planter bed,or just in the soil somewhere to plant your root cuttings-as long as they are in a frost-free area.2.Before you plant them,put a little bit of

19、sand in the bottom of the hole and dust the bottom of each cutting with powdered sulfur to control fungi.This helps keeps the roots from rotting.3.Plant in moist potting soil a few inches apart,and make sure that the tops of the cuttings are about 1 inch(2.5 cm)below the soil surface.4.Cover with 1/

20、4 to 1/2 inch(cm)of coarse sand or small gravel.5.Water only when soil becomes dry and try not to keep the soil too wet because the roots can rot.Plant 1 inch(2.5 cm)Below Soil SurfaceDip Bottom Ends In SulfurCover With Coarse Sand or Small GravelStep 4When Shoots Appear,Plant Them Out1.In three to

21、four weeks your cuttings should be forming roots,and some even may start to push new growth.2.When new shoots appear,give them some liquid fertilizer at half strength.3.Once the plants are established,they can be transplanted to individual pots or moved into the garden.4.When planting out the cuttin

22、gs,make sure the tops of the cuttings(the straight cut ends)are about 2 inches(5 cm)below the soil surface.5.Keep in mind,perennial root cuttings can start pushing new growth fairly quickly,so you might need to protect them from any freezing weahter.Examples:raspberry 悬钩子blackberry 黑莓trumpet vine(Ca

28、r other adverse conditions such as summer drought and heat(estivation).Comparison of the corm and the bulbCorms are often similar in appearance to bulbs externally,and thus erroneously called bulbs.Corms are stems that are internally structured with solid tissues,which distinguishes them from bulbs,

29、which are mostly made up of layered fleshy scales that are modified leaves.As a result,when a corm is cut in half it is solid,but when a true bulb is cut in half it is made up of layers.Corms are structurally plant stems,with nodes and internodes with buds and produce adventitious roots.On the top o

30、f the corm,one or a few buds grow into shoots that produce normal leaves and flowers.RhizomesIn botany and dendrology,a rhizome is a modified subterranean stem of a plant that is usually found underground,often sending out roots and shoots from its nodes.gingerTubersTubers are various types of modif

31、ied plant structures that are enlarged to store nutrients.They are used by plants to survive the winter or dry months,to provide energy and nutrients for regrowth during the next growing season,and as a means of asexual reproduction.Stem tubers,which are the development of enlarged stolons thickened
