When a lotus leaf grows to a certain extent, it will grow a new leaf from under it. When you see it grow new leaves, you can divide it and separate the new leaves from the original plant. The new leaves can be cut off directly and raised in different containers. After four or five days of division, you can see the roots growing under the new leaves, and then the division work is successfully completed.

1. Cuttage method

1. Time selection: The time of cuttage of Scindapsus aureus is very important, and the rooting is faster in late spring and early summer.It is not recommended when the temperature is high or low.

2. Selection of flower soil: Use flower soil suitable for its growth. It likes clean soil with good air permeability, so the soil must be breathable, and it should be disinfected and sterilized before use.Otherwise, if the soil is too heavy, it will directly affect the rooting speed of cuttings.

3. Branch selection: The stronger and better the branch, the faster its rooting speed will be.So to cut high-quality branches, the length is about 13 cm.The extra leaves should be cut off, and the upper part should be kept about 1-2 pieces.Moreover, before cutting, it should be soaked in rooting water, which is also helpful for its rooting.

4, cutting skills: cutting time can not hurt the branches, sometimes inserted into the soil when too hard, it will cause damage, which will affect its rooting.Insert the branches in the soil to a depth of half, not too deep, and finally shade, and add a little water on the line.

2. Method of changing basin

First prepare a flowerpot larger than the original pot for use, and then take the plant out of the old pot. Before taking off the pot, loosen the soil first, but remember not to damage the root.After removing the pot, the soil sticking to the roots should be removed, and then the root system should be simply combed to remove the rotten, old and winding roots.Finally, after disinfection and drying, it is potted, watered thoroughly and placed in a cool place to wait for it to slow down.
