When it comes to growing flowers, once you have found the joy in it and learned how to make them grow faster and more beautifully, many people cannot resist the urge to grow a few more pots. Most people put this into practice by going to the market to buy them, but actually, propagating a whole mass of plants from the ones you already grow is itself one of the pleasures of gardening. So stop foolishly spending money at the vendor's stall; instead, do it yourself. All it takes is one cutting, and we can turn the balcony into a sea of flowers.

1. Snake plant (Sansevieria)

Friends who like foliage plants tend to be fond of the snake plant, and although the snake plant is not some precious flower variety, buying it still costs some money. In fact, we can absolutely propagate it by cuttings, so we can grow as many pots as we want, completely free from budget limits, and we don't have to worry about our partner saying we are squandering money.

We only need to take a leaf that looks very healthy from the outermost part of the existing snake plant, cut it into several segments each more than 5 cm long, then soak the future root end for about 15 minutes in our homemade rooting water that improves the survival rate - sugar water - and then we can plant the cuttings. Once they grow roots, we will have a whole mass of baby snake plants, so many that the balcony cannot even hold them all.

2. Kalanchoe (Kalanchoe blossfeldiana)

Kalanchoe is also one of the plants we like to grow at home, especially older people, who particularly love growing it; they simply love its symbolic meaning, and keeping it makes them feel happy. Likewise, if we want several more pots of kalanchoe, we do not need to ask others for them; we can absolutely propagate them ourselves by cuttings.

The method is much the same as the first one, except that kalanchoe is better suited to being rooted in vermiculite, which makes the success rate much higher. After one month, our balcony can have many more kalanchoes,

3. Jasmine (Jasminum)

The third one is a flower we often hear about, jasmine. From this famous song we can see that everyone very much likes this flower. So I believe many people also grow it at home, and we can likewise propagate it by cuttings to help it have more brothers and sisters.

And the cutting method for jasmine is exactly the same as for kalanchoe, even the soil environment is the same, very simple and convenient.

In this way, with just a few gentle actions, after one month we can harvest countless new pots of flowers, so many that the balcony can no longer hold them all, and it instantly becomes a sea of flowers!
