Strip propagation

In May and June, the propagation of frondong is generally carried out. The robust branches of frondong are selected for circular peeling. The peeling position is about 20-25cm away from the top. After peeling, the peeling place is wrapped with bitter mud medicine or peat soil, and then it is pinched into a soil mass. Then it is tightly wrapped with plastic film, and a water port is reserved at the upper part. If the stem is too thin to support the soil mass, you can tie the soil mass to the bamboo pole to support it.
