How to propagate and prune Tiger Jasmine

1. How to take cuttings

1. Cut branches: Tiger jasmine is a relatively difficult plant to maintain. It has requirements for branches when cutting. Suitable branches can improve the survival rate. Choose semi-lignified branches, and avoid branches that are too old or too tender, as both extremes are not conducive to rooting. Make sure there are two nodes on the branches, remove the leaves below, and keep two or three leaves on the top. If the leaves are relatively large, cut them in half to reduce evaporation. Cut the branches into an inclined surface at the bottom to increase the contact area and place them aside to dry slightly.

2. Container and soil: Before cuttings, you must choose a good container and soil. The container for cuttings does not need to be too large, and two small holes must be drilled at the bottom. The soil can be river sand, vermiculite, etc., or a mixture of leaf mold and sand.

3. Carry out cuttings: insert the cut branches into the soil and water it thoroughly to keep the substrate moist. In the later process of waiting for rooting, a certain humidity must also be maintained.

4. Transplant into pots: After the branches have taken root and are stable, you can prepare the flower pots and soil, and then transplant the branches into pots.

2. How to prune

Tiger jasmine is relatively delicate to care for, so be careful when pruning it and do not prune it in special environments. Observe the situation, cut off the branches that are not growing well, and apply fungicide on the cut.
