The Cuttage Propagation of Poinsettia was conducted between April and may. Select two-year-old robust plants, cut 15-20cm branches from the top, soak them, and then pull them out to dry. Insert it obliquely into the matrix, with a depth of about 10cm, and gently compact the soil. After cutting, pour enough water, then put it in a cool environment, wait about 15 days, and it will take root and sprout.

I. choice of time

The breeding time is chosen after the blooming of flowers in early spring every year, that is, between April and may. This period of time is a good time for plant growth and development, the probability of survival and rooting will be relatively large

2. Cut the insert

Select two-year-old strong plants and cut branches from them, with a length of about 15-20cm. Two or three bud eyes should be reserved at the upper end, so as to ensure good growth. After that, fill the basin with water, put the branches in to soak, and take them out to dry almost 24 hours later.

3. Prepare the soil

Can use mud basin or sink cuttage, the choice of substrate is also more important, the choice of texture is more soft, but also need to have permeability effect, which is conducive to the discharge of water, not water accumulation caused by decay.

4. Cutting

Insert the cut branch into the substrate, and insert it obliquely, with a depth of about 10cm. After cutting, the loam will be lightly compacted, but the action should not be too heavy to prevent too tight.

V. later maintenance

After cutting, pour enough water, then put it in a cool environment, wait about 15 days, and it will take root and sprout. One and a half months after survival, we can apply some low concentration fertilizer to promote growth.
