Bougainvillea cuttings

Bougainvillea cuttings

1. Prepare the substrate

Bougainvillea cuttings require a highly loose substrate, which makes it easier for it to take root. Specifically, you can prepare one part vermiculite, one part perlite and one part peat soil, mix them thoroughly and use them as the substrate for cuttings. If you want it to take root faster, you can also mix some small pieces of slag into the substrate.

2. Cuttings

Cut some normally growing, woody, sunny branches from healthy mother plants and cut them short to a length of 7-10 cm. Then use a knife to bevel its bottom end so that the cross-section at its bottom is at a 45° angle to the branch. Then remove the leaves below it, leaving only the top 2-3 leaves. Afterwards, soak its base with rooting water.

3. Take cuttings

Pour the prepared flower soil into the seedling container, and then insert the cuttings into it. The insertion depth should be controlled at about 4-5cm. Then, pour some clean water into the soil to moisten the flower soil, move it to a location with short-term scattered sunlight, and maintain a temperature of around 20°C. After a period of time, it will take root and survive.
