| Propagation methods: cuttings and seeds. Seed-propagated mainly when it is necessary to multiply a large number of plants. Plants propagated by cuttings retain the characteristics of the parent plant. Cuttings harvested from the mother plant should be healthy and strong. Cuttings should be about 80-10 cm long. Before planting cuttings are a little dried. A suitable soil mixture contains sod, leafy earth, peat and sand (2:2:2:1). |
