Milan cuttings: choosing a medium

Before cutting, the cutting bed must be prepared. According to the number of branches to be cut, use containers of different diameters. When there are fewer cuttings, you can choose flower pots. When there are more branches, you can use wooden boxes and other larger containers. The bottom of the basin is filled with rubble to enhance water permeability.

Milan cuttings: choosing branches

After a period of time, new buds will grow between the leaf stems, which means that roots have taken root.
