Can Gardenia survive by cuttings in spring?

1. Can it be inserted alive?

The chance of survival of gardenia cuttings is the highest in spring. The temperature at this time is stable, which is very suitable for the growth of gardenia. Generally speaking, as long as the cutting method is correct, the survival rate can almost reach 100%. April in spring is the most suitable time. For areas with slightly higher temperatures, it is recommended to do it in advance around February or March, while for areas with relatively low temperatures, it can be postponed to around April or May.

2. Cutting method

1. Select cuttings: Use sharp scissors to cut a branch with good growth, preferably 1-2 years old. There should be no damage on the branches, and there should be no signs of damage by pests and diseases.

2. Prepare the soil: When taking cuttings, you need to use a clean substrate, and expose it to the sun for disinfection before use. It also needs to meet the requirements of good air permeability and softness, which is more conducive to the rooting of branches.

3. Processing of cuttings: The leaves at the bottom of the cuttings need to be trimmed off, leaving only the top 3-4 leaves. The lower incision of the branch needs to be cut into an inclined surface to allow it to have better contact with the substrate. The upper incision should be made at a distance of 1-2 cm from the bud point and cut flatly.

4. Inserting into the soil: After the treatment is completed, carefully insert it into the soil, press it with the surrounding soil, and water it thoroughly.
