1. Branch cuttings: Prepare the substrate to be used in advance, cut branches that are in good growth condition and have no insect pests, and leave the branches for two days after cutting them. A few leaves should be retained on the branches, and then carefully inserted into the soil, but do not let its leaves be buried in the soil. The soil should be watered thoroughly after cuttings.

2. Stem cuttings: Cuttings require mature fleshy stems. The length does not need to be too long, about 5-6cm will be enough. Prepare a suitable substrate, plant the cuttings in it and cover it with a film, then place it at around 15-20℃.

Finally, insert it into the substrate, pour some water on it, place it in a semi-shaded environment and wait for it to take root.
