How to Propagate Dwarf gentians?
Dwarf gentians can be propagated by seed sowing, cuttings, division, or occasionally by tissue culture. Successful germination requires a period of cold stratification. Adequate light, well-draining soil, and maintaining a temperature range of 50-65°F are crucial. Seedlings are delicate, so handle with care. Propagation is moderately difficult due to dwarf gentians's sensitivity to overwatering and slow growth. Steps: 1) Stratify seeds by refrigerating for two weeks. 2) Sow in well-draining, sandy soil. 3) Maintain constant moisture, not wetness. 4) Provide bright, indirect light. 5) Transplant seedlings after 5-6 weeks, minimizing root disturbance.
