Chapter 523: No Need to Graft Fruit Trees (Page 1/2)

Lin Man refused without thinking, as she felt that the idea was not feasible.

She said to Huo Qingci, "Qingci, you have so many fruit trees in your space, you can pick whatever you want to eat anytime, there's no need to do any grafting.

And if you graft branches from different fruit trees onto the same tree, who knows what the resulting fruit will taste like? If it doesn't taste good, wouldn't that be a waste of effort?

But come to think of it, it seems that no one in later generations has promoted this grafting method to achieve the goal of growing multiple fruits on one tree.

Some flower growers have grafted colorful lollipops and planted them in yards and green belts, which are very suitable.

"What Manman said is true. Flowers are different from fruits. Roses look good when grafted together, but grafting different fruits together may not necessarily make the fruits taste good. It's better not to do it.

By the way, Manman, why do you suddenly want to graft roses?"

"Xinxin loves flowers. I grafted this colorful lollipop flower specifically for her. This kind of flower blooms all year round. Put a bag around it in a few days and bring it back to give to Xinxin."

Huo Qingci also knew that his daughter had a strong interest in flowers and plants since she was a child, and she would often go to the roadside with her friends to pick some wild flowers to take home.

Even now, she still likes to draw a small flower on the cover of her textbooks and exercise books.

When his wife makes skirts for her daughter in the summer, she always sews some small lace on them, and when she knits sweaters for her, she also crochets a few small flowers.

"Okay, I'll bring this pot of colorful roses back in a few days to grow. Oh, and if my daughter asks me where these roses came from, what should I tell her?"

"You have so many classmates, isn't there one working at the Agricultural Science Academy?"

“I actually have a classmate, but he doesn’t work at the Agricultural Science Academy, but his father is a leader there.

But I definitely can’t say this pot of colorful roses was cultivated by the Academy of Agricultural Sciences. I told her it was grafted by a friend.”

"Okay, next time someone asks you, just say that you grafted it on your friend. It's not the first time you've made friends out of nothing." Lin Man held back her laughter and couldn't help but tease.

"Manman, since we want to grow flowers at home, why don't we plant a few more pots? Anyway, grandpa's house is next to ours, and half of the balcony here belongs to us."

"We can plant some other flowers, but we'll talk about that later. But I plan to get two pots of orchids to put in the living room and bedroom."

"I think the flowers of Cymbidium are smaller and not as pretty as Cymbidium orchids. Why don't we get a pot of Cymbidium orchids and grow it in the living room when winter comes?"

"Sure. Go to the city on your day off and buy some nice flower pots. Big, small, short, tall."

"Okay, I'll buy some pots and vases to fill the space when I have time."

Two days later, Huo Qingci brought back the colorful lollipops that Lin Man had grown specially for her daughter.

Huo Yixin had just finished her homework and walked out of the room when she saw a pot of colorful roses on the coffee table. She happily said to the person who was cooking outside the door, "Mom, there's a pot of fake flowers on the coffee table. Who bought this?"

Lin Man looked back at her daughter and said while cooking, "Xinxin, those are real flowers."

"Real flowers?"

At this time, Huo Qingci also changed his clothes and came out of the room. He pulled Huo Yixin to sit down and said, "Xinxin, these are really real flowers. Mom and Dad know that you like flowers. This is a gift from your mom and me to you."

Huo Yixin reached out and touched the flowers, exclaiming in surprise, "Oh, they are really fresh flowers, I thought they were fake flowers?

Dad, don’t roses have thorns? Why don’t they have thorns on their branches? And why do they come in so many colors?

"This is a grafted rose. Its main trunk is the main trunk of the rose. By grafting different colored rose buds onto it, you will get roses of different colors."

"Wow, that's amazing! It turns out you can graft roses into a rose tree! My classmate said she has a four-season rose planted under her courtyard wall, and it blooms all year round.

Dad, will our rose tree bloom all year round?

"Our colorful rose is also a four-season rose, but Beijing is too cold, so it can only bloom for three seasons."

"Dad, this colorful rose is so beautiful. Can I take it to school? I really want to open my classmates' eyes." Huo Yixin blinked her big watery eyes and looked at Huo Qingci with anticipation.

Huo Qingci thought that if his daughter brought flowers to school, it would definitely cause a lot of trouble. He replied in a gentle tone:

"Xinxin, it's better to keep this pot of roses at home. But you can invite your classmates to come over to our house to play and enjoy them."

Hearing this, Huo Yixin was as excited as a happy little bird. She immediately threw herself into Huo Qingci's arms, hugged his arms tightly, and started to act coquettishly:

"Thank you, dear Dad. You are so kind! I love you so much! I will invite all my classmates to come to my house this Sunday."

Huo Qingci smiled and nodded, "Okay, baby."

Huo Yixin was overjoyed after getting her father's approval. Her eyes sparkled as she said, "Dad, my brothers and I'm sure they've never seen roses this beautiful. I can't wait to move next door and show them to them."

"Okay, go ahead!" Huo Qingci touched Huo Yixin's little head lovingly.

Huo Yixin carefully held her beloved colorful rose in her hands, as if she were holding a rare treasure, and walked towards the next door with light steps.

At this time, Huo Qingci stood up and walked to the balcony to help his busy wife Lin Man.

In the living room next door, several boys saw the colorful roses that Huo Yixin brought in, and immediately gathered around, chattering and arguing about this magical flower.

Huo Yian turned around curiously and asked Huo Yining beside him, "Brother, why are these roses so different from the ones we usually see? Ordinary roses are just small branches. How can they grow into a rose tree like this?"

Huo Yiwen frowned as he looked at the roses of different colors. How could a rose grow in so many colors?

He took it to the coffee table and examined it carefully. Suddenly, he understood and said with a smile, "Brother, I know what's going on. This rose was transplanted. Look at all the nodes on the main stem."

Huo Yixin patted her brother's arm and gave him a thumbs up. "Brother, you are really smart. This colorful rose is made by fiber insertion."

Huo Yian also understood, but he still didn't quite understand. He asked, "Brother, how did this guy come up with the idea of ​​grafting roses of different colors onto the same branch? Why didn't we think of this idea?"
