Generally speaking, the survival rate is high in spring and autumn. Mix culture soil, saprophytic soil and sandy soil, and then add some perlite, the flowerpot should not be too large. Don't select the branches that are too old or have diseases and insect pests. After selection, most of the leaves will be removed. Pour the substrate into the container, then use tools to poke holes, insert branches, and compact the surrounding soil. Cover with plastic film after watering, about half a month to 20 days.

1. time

If it is indoor cultivation, it can be carried out all year round. But in spring and autumn, the success rate is higher than in hot summer and cold winter.

2. matrix

It can mix the culture soil, rotten leaf soil and sandy soil sold in the market, and the effect is good. You can also add some perlite in it, so its water permeability will be better

3. containers

Requirements are not too high, but not too big, generally 15 to 20 caliber

4. branches

Don't choose the branches that are too old and have diseases and insect pests. Choose the new and healthy branches, about ten centimeters. Then wait for the cut to dry, and then cut off two-thirds of its leaves. In addition, if there are flower buds or fruits, they should also be cut off. In this way, evaporation can be effectively reduced.

5. Insert branches

Pour the substrate into the flowerpot, and then use scissors, bamboo sticks, or chopsticks to poke holes. Each is about six centimeters away and two or three centimeters deep. Then, insert the branches and flatten the surrounding soil.

6. Post management

After all the above steps are completed, you need to pour enough water, and then cover with a layer of plastic wrap. As for light, astigmatism is enough. The temperature is controlled between eighteen and twenty degrees. In about half a month or 20 days, the roots can grow. If it is observed that it does not decay or wither, it means that it survives. Thirty days later, it will be portable. However, because of its slow recovery, we need to bring more soil
