Generally speaking, it is suitable in spring and autumn, mainly considering the temperature. Specifically, it can be from April to July or from September to October. The temperature of these two periods is more appropriate. At this time, cutting is easy to take root and sprout, and it will grow better. Especially in May, when the flowering is almost over, that is to say, the cuttings can be cut off in combination with the opportunity of post flower pruning, which is more convenient. In addition, February can also be cuttage, this time is the germination of new leaf buds, choose semi - lignified branches easy to survive.
1. Selection and treatment of branches: select robust, preferably semi lignified branches with enough buds on them, and cut them off with a sterilized knife. Then we can cut it only by pruning it. Only two leaves are left. The rest of the leaves should be cut off. This is to reduce water loss and help survival. Wounds can be treated with carbendazim so that they do not rot.
2. Prepare the matrix: loose, ventilate, drain water and have plenty of nutrition. After the matrix is ready, it is better to disinfect it first and then use it
3. Cutting: insert the cuttings obliquely into the substrate. Then put it in a cool, well ventilated place, then keep the substrate moist, take root in about 20 days.
