How to Divide Bulbs?

Article Category: Gardening

Author Name: chickie maxwell

One of the characteristics of plant bulbs is their ability to be divided to form a new growth. This is very handy especially for those who design their house with their own handpicked flowers from their garden. Also, flowers garnered from these bulbs make it handy for a gift to someone dear to your heart. Therefore the more bulbs you have, the more flowers you can get once they start to bloom. This will then produce a lot of smiles and twinkly eyes towards you and your flowers.

When your flowerbed gets too clumpy from underneath, the tendency is for the flowers to become overcrowded that may sometimes make it a little too bushy. As a solution, division of bulbs and spreading it equally onto the flowerbed would make more breathing space allowing it to bloom vibrantly and the arrangement of flowers would be a lot more systematic. Moreover, when the bulb is too large already, it produces overgrown flowers that are not all the time pleasing to the eyes.

Techniques in dividing the bulbs differ from each type of bulbs. To know how, here are the some of the ways most commonly employed by gardeners:

True bulbs

In dividing true bulbs, you need to carefully separate the parent bulb from its offset growing at its basal plate. In lily bulbs, the same thing must be done. However, you must first disintegrate the outer scales away from the basal plate. Once it is successfully divided, immediately dip the ends of the bulbs to a rooting hormone and plant it right afterwards.

Corms

Corms produce new corms or a cormel on top of the parent corm. To divide this, just simply separate it while making sure that both of them are healthy and capable of growing into plant bulbs.

Tubers

Tubers augment its size and its growing points as it ages. In dividing this, make sure that both parts have their own growing points to enable re-growth needed for the next division process.

Rhizomes

The growth points of rhizomes have growing points on the sides. To divide this, cut it through the natural divisions while ensuring that each has at least one of its corresponding growing points.

Tuberous roots

These roots form several growing points. To divide it, cut the clumps that may be found in the bulb itself and ensure the presence of a growth bud for each root.

Division of bulbs is done on its dormancy stage. This is done to properly spread the bulbs all throughout the flower bed because most of the times these bulbs go beyond their limits. They exceed the boundaries set for them by the gardeners thus upsetting the harmonious landscape that was designed firstly. Moreover, when you want to start a business in supplying plant bulbs, you can use this article as your guide in dividing and reproducing bulbs needed to supply your customers and expanding your business. A lot of online retailers are actually doing this and the result of their work is very rewarding.
