How to propagate peace tree

1. Cutting time

Generally speaking, cuttings are an ideal method of propagation in home care. Cuttings of peace lilies are usually chosen in spring and autumn. If there is indoor heating in the north in winter, cuttings can also be carried out in a propagation box.

2. Choose branches

When using cuttings, you should choose branches grown in the current year. Generally, branches with a length of 15 to 20 cm should be selected. The lower part of the branch should be cut into a horseshoe shape with a sharp blade. One to two leaves should be retained on the upper part, and the other leaves should be removed. The remaining leaves can also be cut in half to reduce their transpiration.

3. Cutting medium

The substrate for cuttings can be peat and vermiculite, mixed in a 1:1 ratio.

4. Cutting method

Water the substrate thoroughly, dip the lower cut end of the branch in rooting powder, insert the cutting into the substrate about two fingers deep, and press the surrounding substrate firmly. Make sure the cutting medium is sufficiently moist. If it is dry, you can use spraying to increase its humidity. When you can see new buds sprouting on the peace thyme tree, it proves that it has survived. In spring and autumn, it usually takes 20 to 30 days to take root and sprout, and then you can transplant it into a flowerpot.
