Geranium cutting propagation methods and little tricks:

For the cutting time, you can choose spring and autumn. As long as the temperature is around 20 degrees, you can take cuttings at any time.

Before taking cuttings, first disinfect the pruning scissors. Wiping on a little soapy foam also works. This can disinfect and keep them free of bacteria.

Choose healthy branches. They can be the top of a branch or a middle branch, semi-lignified branches. They cannot be too old, nor too soft and tender. They should be about ten cm long.

Use a transparent plastic cup or mineral water bottle, and fill it with vermiculite or river sand. Taking cuttings in a transparent cup makes it very easy to observe whether roots have grown later. Whether water needs to be added, and so on. Water the vermiculite thoroughly, but do not let it accumulate water, so that too much water does not suffocate it.

You can put another cup outside it. Do not soak it in water; just let it absorb enough water. This can avoid dripping water out while also preserving moisture.

After taking cuttings, place them on a ventilated and shady windowsill. At the beginning, be sure not to expose them to the sun. Once exposed to the sun, the leaves will wilt. Wait until the branches and leaves become firm after cutting, then expose them to light.

Generally, roots grow in about half a month. Gradually, small leaves will grow. It looks full of vitality.

When the root system fills the cup, you can cut the cup open, take the roots out, and transplant them into a flowerpot. Later, you can fertilize more and give more light, and they will bloom into clusters of flower balls. Once they start blooming, it lasts for months.

If placed on an enclosed balcony in winter, with sufficient sunlight and suitable temperature, it can also bloom delicate and beautiful flowers in winter.

Geraniums like sufficient sunlight. When watering, just make sure the pot soil does not accumulate water.

Usually prune more and fertilize more, and the flowers will not stop.

Geraniums blooming like flower balls are beautiful no matter how you look at them, never tiring to look at!
