How to propagate Schefflera

1. Seeding method

For propagation by sowing, you can buy seeds or collect them yourself. The seeds used must be full, and it is best to sow them right after harvesting them. You can also store the seeds in sand for germination, and then plant them after you find cracks in the seeds. Prepare clean soil without impurities. After planting the seeds, cover them with soil. The thickness should be 1-2 times the diameter of the seeds.

2. Cutting method

1. Soil cuttings: Use scissors to cut a 10-15cm branch from the Schefflera arborvitae plant, cut off the lowest leaves, keep the top 2-3 leaves, and make an oblique cut at the bottom of the cutting. After processing the cuttings, prepare the cutting medium, and finally insert the branches into the medium, keep it slightly moist, and wait for rooting.

2. Water plug: Prepare a water plug container, you can use a glass, beverage bottle, etc. Cut a branch about 8 cm long, keeping the leaves on the top, but cut the bottom into a flat end. Fill the bottle with water and place the cutting into the container without touching the bottom or the inside walls of the container. Finally, place it in a place with diffuse light and adjust the temperature to 15-25℃.
