When cutting tiger orchids, you should select thick leaves from healthy plants and cut them off, and treat the cuttings with disinfectant water. If the leaves are very long, you can cut them into several small pieces and sterilize them separately. Prepare some breathable flower soil, put it in a pot, and insert the leaves vertically into the soil so that half of their height is inserted into the soil. After that, replenish water in time and wait for them to take root.

1. Prepare pot soil

1. Prepare pot soil

Before cutting tiger orchid, you must first prepare the flower pot and flower soil to be used. The pot should be a small pot with good permeability, preferably a mud pot. The flower soil should be selected with a higher granular content, preferably mixed with leaf humus soil and granular river sand. This will allow the inserted young plants to take root faster.

2. Cut the leaves

When cutting, you can use its leaves. Select thick leaves without lesions from healthy plants, cut them off, and then soak them in disinfected water for about 20 minutes to sterilize. If its leaves are relatively large, you can cut them into several small pieces and disinfect them separately. After that, treat them with rooting water and set them aside to dry.

3. Make cuttings

Gently fill the prepared pot with flower soil, and then insert the completely dried leaves into the flower soil vertically. The depth of the soil should be controlled to half the height of the blades. If you use small pots for cuttings, it is best to use one leaf per pot. After inserting, gently press the soil surface with your hands to ensure that they are in full contact with the flower soil. After that, put them in a warm place, replenish water in time, and wait for roots to form.
