The best time to take hibiscus cuttings

1. Best time for cuttings

The best time for hibiscus cuttings is late autumn, early winter, and early spring, roughly from December to March of the following year. If you take cuttings during this period, they will take root faster and better. The region where each flower lover lives is different, so the specific time for cuttings can be determined according to weather conditions.

2. Cutting method

1. Soil: Prepare some soil before starting cuttings. Try to use soil that is loose and breathable. If such a substrate is used, the branches will take root faster and it will be more suitable for their growth.

2. Branches: The diameter of branches used for cuttings should be more than 1 cm, and the pruning cuts should be as smooth as possible. The length of the branches should be about 15cm. Strong branches are the first choice and they must not be diseased. Soaking the cuttings in disinfectant before grafting will help them take root.

3. Cutting: After processing the branches, insert them into the soil, and keep 1/3 of the height above the ground so that it can breathe and grow better. After cuttings, fix them well and water them in time. New roots will grow in about a month.
