How to breed Daruma Fu Niang

Cuttings

Choose cuttings with shorter internodes and larger leaves, generally 5 to 7 cm in length. It is recommended to choose the top internode of the Daruma Agastache as the best. Be sure to disinfect the scissors before cutting to prevent bacterial infection at the cut. After cutting, wait until the cut is dry before inserting it into the culture soil. Under normal circumstances, it will take root in 10-25 days, and after 30 days it can be moved to a larger pot for cultivation.

Single leaf cuttings

The main method of propagation of Daruma Nigella is cutting propagation, and the time for cutting is chosen during the most vigorous growth period of Daruma Nigella. Of course, you can also use the single leaf cutting method. This method is relatively simple. Just select a large and thick leaf, place it flat on the culture soil, and then press the stem of the leaf hard. Generally speaking, the leaves will take root in about twenty-five to thirty days, and small seedlings will gradually grow.

Maintenance after cutting

summer

When the temperature is particularly high in summer, the growth of the Daruma Plant will be suspended. At this time, it must be placed in a ventilated and cool place, and the frequency of watering should be reduced, and the amount of watering should not be too much each time.

winter

In winter, you must ensure that the temperature of the environment in which it grows does not drop below 5 degrees Celsius, otherwise it will be frozen. It is important to ensure that the Daruma Plant has a certain amount of light, otherwise its leaves will often turn green, the red edges will disappear, and it will lose its normal glossiness.

What to do if you grow slowly

If the Daruma Plant grows very slowly, it may be because its bottom branches have become woody and more branches must be in contact with the ground in order to grow more adventitious roots.
