| Sumario: | Division of clumps is the largest used technique
of vegetative propagation spread with great success
among the grasses. When it comes to commercial
production of ornamental grasses, it is important to
know the season that this practice is done to get
plants of the best quality in the shortest possible time.
According to some authors, division is usually best
done when grasses are in active growth: late spring
for the summer species and autumn or early spring
for the winter ones.
In this assay, the aim was to study the influence
of the season in the division of Miscanthus
sinensis "Variegatus", M. sinensis "Zebrinus", M.
sinensis "Morning Light", Paspalum haumanii,
Leymus arenarius, Pennisetum setaceum and Trichloris
crinita in December and February, it was also
evaluated the ornamental condition and precocity
of plants obtained in autumn and into late spring
with commercial purposes.The variables considered
were: vegetative height, canopy diameter, and
crown diameter, number of canes and percentage
of survival.
From commercial and productive point of
view, it is advisable to realize the division in autumn
to obtain precociousness only in M. sinensis
"Variegatus" and in M. sinensis "Zebrinus". In the
case of M. sinensis "Morning Light", P. setaceum,
T. crinita, P. haumanii and Leymus is more appropriate
spring division.
