In summer, most flowers need to be shaded. Recently, some flower growers have asked: in summer, which flowers are relatively easy to propagate successfully from cuttings? Below, the editor lists a few flowers, just for everyone's reference.

Geranium: Geranium is a plant with very high ornamental value. Because its blooms are very colorful, many flower growers like to grow a few plants at home. When cultivating geraniums, using the cutting method makes it very easy to succeed. Among these, when growing a geranium, the best method to use is water propagation cuttings. In fact, water-propagated plants are just like soil-propagated cuttings; you only need to choose a suitable plant segment and remove the leaves.

Periwinkle: Periwinkle is also a plant relatively suitable for propagation by cuttings. Periwinkle has a long flowering period and is relatively suitable for ornamental uses such as gardening. Apart from winter, periwinkle generally blooms at other times. When taking cuttings, the selected branches should be relatively robust ones, and during the cutting period, provide it with a moist environment. It is best to place it in a ventilated spot, and periwinkle has very strong vitality, so when this plant is propagated by cuttings, its survival rate is very high.

Begonia: Begonia is a plant with many varieties, and the flowers it produces are also very splendid. If you want to grow a begonia, the most suitable method is cuttings, because using cuttings can make begonias grow quickly, and the cutting conditions are easy, very similar to the cutting methods for other flowers. But it is worth noting that when taking cuttings, you should find a warm and moist environment for the begonia.

Rose: Rose is the plant most commonly propagated by cuttings. In fact, taking rose cuttings is a very simple matter. Here the editor introduces a very practical tip: before taking rose cuttings, after finding the branches, find a piece of sponge, put the sponge into water and let it absorb enough water, then insert the branches directly into the sponge. After waiting a while, the rose will naturally take root. Once it has rooted, transfer the plant into soil. In this way, the chance of survival will be greatly increased.

Kalanchoe: Kalanchoe symbolizes longevity, is a plant with a very good meaning, and has beautiful flower shapes. Many flower growers keep one or two plants at home. In summer, when the temperature is too high, if we want to propagate kalanchoe by cuttings, we should move it indoors and take cuttings in an air-conditioned room. The selected branches should be relatively well-growing ones; remove the leaves and keep only the top leaves, then leave the plant for a day, and then place it into soil mixed with vermiculite and soil. After the cuttings are taken, water them and wait for them to root.

Many flower growers say summer cuttings are difficult. In fact, after reading what the editor wrote, flower growers will find that taking cuttings of these plants is a very simple matter. You only need to pay attention to these few points, and you will find that these plants you propagated from cuttings survive very easily. If flower growers encounter any problems during the cutting process, you are welcome to discuss them with the editor.
