How to plant ivy

1. Time Selection

It is easier to root and easier to operate. There is no big time limit for cuttings. As long as the temperature is suitable, cuttings can be carried out all year round. However, in general households, it is best to do cuttings in April-May in spring, or in August-September in autumn. The climate is mild, which is conducive to rooting and also helps subsequent growth.

2. Cut branches

Choose a well-grown ivy plant, cut a branch about 30 cm long from the top, and then divide it into stem segments of about 10 cm. It is required that the branches have leaves at the top and are not affected by pests and diseases. The leaves at the bottom should be removed, otherwise it will affect the later growth. If you don't have ivy at home, you can also get a piece from a friend's house. It is easier to grow.

3. Soil Preparation

There is no need to choose a special container for cuttings. Disposable cups or plastic bottles can be used, but there must be drainage holes at the bottom. The medium for cuttings should be clean sand, vermiculite, perlite, etc.

4. Take cuttings

Put the substrate in the container, then insert the branches into it, gently compact the soil, do a good job of post-maintenance, provide water and light reasonably, and it will survive after a period of time.
