Then insert the branches into loose sandy soil, or use a culture soil prepared with 50% fine sawdust, 20% pearl stone and 30% coarse sand. Water them after insertion to ensure sufficient humidity. Ensure 50%~60% light every day. After 30~40 days, they will take root and become seedlings. After the roots grow vigorously, transplant them into potted plants.

During home maintenance, if the temperature is below 15 ℃, it should be moved to a warm and windproof room in time, otherwise the leaves will turn yellow.

The soil for cuttings should be loose, fertile sandy soil with good drainage. The soil for potted plants should be slightly acidic, or peat soil, sand, vermiculite can be used to make culture soil, and a small amount of superphosphate can be added. Please note that the culture soil is crucial to the success of cuttings.
