Cutting selection

The cuttings of the money tree must be strong and free of diseases and pests to meet the most basic growth requirements. Secondly, it is best to choose semi-lignified branches grown in the current year.

Cuttings processing

When cutting cuttings, you can choose a cloudy day or a windless morning. The length should be six or seven centimeters. The lower cut should be cut at a 45-degree angle and the upper cut should be smooth. This will help the formation of callus tissue. Keep one to two leaves from each cutting.

Cutting method

It is best to cut the branches and plant them immediately. If possible, soak them in rooting powder to increase the survival rate of the cuttings. The best depth for cuttings is to not let the plants tilt, usually three to five centimeters is enough. After cuttings, water them thoroughly in time and place them in a cool and ventilated place for maintenance.

Things to note after cuttings

The branches after cuttings must be sprayed with water every day to maintain the air humidity, and the cutting medium must be kept moist at all times. After the cuttings sprout new leaves, they can be moved to scattered light for normal maintenance. The rooting of the money tree from cuttings is slow, usually taking two to three months, so you must be patient and manage it carefully.
