Cutting propagation method of hibiscus

Hibiscus cutting propagation time

Hibiscus can be propagated by cuttings throughout the year, and the best time for cuttings is spring and autumn. When taking cuttings in winter, the temperature is too low and the cuttings will take root slowly, so they need to be kept warm.

Selection of cuttings for hibiscus cutting propagation

Cuttings can be made from terminal buds or tender branches, which take a faster time to root and mature into plants, but have the same growth rate. If semi-lignified or fully lignified branches are selected as cuttings, the rooting speed will be slow, but the plants will mature quickly after rooting and germination, and the growth rates will be inconsistent.

Hibiscus cutting propagation method

Prepare the flower pots and soil for cuttings, water the soil thoroughly, put the processed cuttings into the soil, pay attention to drainage and air permeability, and place them in a place with scattered light and ventilation. Generally, the cuttings will sprout after two to three weeks. After taking root, you can change the pot to promote the growth of the root ball. After they are grown, you can transplant them in the courtyard.
