If you want to cut bayberry, you'd better set the time between April and June. Because this time is when its metabolism is relatively strong. So it's easier to grow roots after the cuttings are put into the soil. Moreover, the climate in this period is also relatively mild, which is good for the survival and growth of cuttings.
1. Prepare cuttings: from healthy adult plants, cut a section of branches that grow in the same year and are in good condition, and remove the leaves in the lower part. Then cut the bottom of it obliquely, put it into disinfectant for sterilization, and then take it out to dry.
2. Prepare flower soil: when cutting, make sure to use loose soil, so that it is easier to root. It is recommended to use sapropel plus river sand and vermiculite to make its flower soil.
3. Cutting: put the flower soil into a proper seedling container, and then insert the dry cuttings into the soil. Pay attention to the control of the depth of soil, let half of the cuttings into the soil.
4. Later maintenance: transfer the inserted insert to a ventilated and warm place, and water once. After that, every 2 - 3 days, water, wait for it to take root.
