How to propagate double-petaled sunflowers

1. Cutting propagation

Cutting propagation is the most commonly used propagation method for double-petaled sunflowers. It is best to carry out this operation in summer. Cut a wilted stem or branch from the mother plant as a cutting and insert it into loose, breathable soil. Be careful to keep the soil moist. Flower buds will grow after the cuttings survive.

2. Division propagation

Propagation by division is also carried out in summer. First, choose strong and intact double-petaled sunflowers, carefully dig the roots out of the soil and divide them into several sections, and plant them separately. After planting, water them thoroughly to fix the roots. After about 1-2 weeks, they will adapt and start to grow.
