Money tree (Pachira aquatica): For money tree cuttings, cut a section of leaf rachis with 2 leaflets as the cutting, insert the cutting into river sand or vermiculite, leaving only the leaflets above the substrate, then spray thoroughly with water. Keep the temperature at 25 to 27°C, but provide shade. This roots fairly quickly, about half a month to root, and in three months it will produce small plantlets.

Peperomia (Peperomia obtusifolia): For peperomia, cut off mature leaves with 1 cm of petiole, then insert the cuttings into peat soil or river sand. The temperature should be suitable, not too high or too low. After about half a month of cuttings, the peperomia will show obvious results and will have rooted. After one month, it will grow small peperomia plantlets. Super simple.

Rubber tree (Ficus elastica): For rubber tree cuttings, cut one-year-old semi-lignified middle branches, keep three buds, remove the lower leaves, and keep 1 to 2 leaves at the top. Then apply fungicide to the cut end. Use river sand as the cutting bed, keep the soil moist but not waterlogged, and keep the temperature suitable. It will root in about half a month to one month.
