Cutting method: Cut a section of branches in May-June, leaving the top 1-2 leaves, insert it into the soil and spray it with water appropriately.

1. Sowing method

1. Sowing method

The seeds are very hard, so they need to be treated before planting. After selecting the plumper seeds, put them into concentrated sulfuric acid, soak them for about 5-30 minutes, and then rinse them with clean water. Prepare a clean substrate, sterilize it before planting, sow the seeds into it, maintain the germination temperature at about 25-35 degrees, and wait for 3-5 days for germination.

2. Grafting method

This This propagation method is best carried out in spring, but if you have a greenhouse, it can be done all year round. Prepare the scion and rootstock in advance, and you can use butting, splitting, or cutting methods. The width of the scion and the rootstock should be the same. The lower end should be cut into a wedge shape. Use a knife to trim off the top tip, split it in the middle, and then insert the wedge-shaped cutting. Finally, tie it up with a plastic bag and place it in a semi-shady place indoors.

3. Cutting method

Use The cutting propagation method is best carried out around May-June. If you want to propagate in winter, you must choose a greenhouse. Cut a 10-12cm branch from the mother plant in good growth condition, remove all the leaves at the bottom, and only keep the top 1-2 leaves. Prepare clean cutting soil in advance, insert the treated branches into it, spray some water every day, and wait for roots to take root.
