After a few heavy rains, the weather has started to cool down. Are you fellow gardeners getting the itch to get hands-on? Now is a great season for cuttings. Today Huahua is here to introduce a few flowers you can propagate from cuttings right now. Flower lovers who like to get hands-on can give it a try!

Stick bougainvillea in the soil like this and big white roots will fill the pot!

1. Add water to the coconut coir brick used for cuttings to soak it open, mix in some rooting powder and carbendazim, stir evenly, squeeze it dry by hand, then put it into a disposable plastic cup.

2. Choose strong, emerald-green branches for the cuttings, cut them to a length of about 10cm, keep 1-2 pairs of leaves, and insert them into the medium. Soft young branches can keep a few more leaves.

3. Put the inserted branches into a transparent plastic box and place it indoors in a bright, cool, ventilated spot. Spray the walls of the plastic box to keep the water droplets on the walls from dripping down, then seal the plastic box.

4. Open the lid twice a day, morning and evening, to let air in, and check the leaf condition and the dryness and humidity inside the box. It is best when the leaves are upright and there are water droplets on the box walls. Depending on the bougainvillea variety and the specific environment, rooting takes roughly 15 days to 1 month.

5. Wait until the bougainvillea has a few more roots before potting up. This way the coconut coir in the cutting cup will not fall apart, and the whole thing can be tipped out, reducing damage to the roots.

Drop gardenia into water and big white roots will come popping out!

1. Select young gardenia branches of the current year, cut the lower end of the cutting at a 45 degree angle, and keep at least two leaves.

2. Prepare a fairly thin foam board and use chopsticks to poke several evenly spaced small holes in the foam board.

3. Insert the gardenia cuttings into the small holes and place them in a foam box filled with clean water. After placing them, put a plastic bag over the foam box.

4. After taking the cuttings, place the foam box in a cool, ventilated spot and avoid direct sun exposure. In about 10 days, the gardenia will grow fine white roots.

5. After waiting another week or more, once the gardenia has more roots, it can be potted up. After potting, keep it in a cool spot for about a week, and once the gardenia has adapted to the new environment, place it in a spot with good light for normal care.

Cut osmanthus and next year the whole yard will be fragrant!

1. Select semi-lignified new branches of the current year and cut them off, around 10cm long. A flat cut or a diagonal cut at the bottom is fine, but the cut surface must be smooth.

2. Perlite can be chosen as the cutting medium. First use chopsticks to poke a few holes in the medium, then put the cuttings in to a depth of about 1/3 of the cutting. After inserting, water thoroughly, then cover with a plastic bag.

3. After inserting, place in a spot with indirect light and ventilation. The temperature is still fairly high now, and in about 3 weeks the osmanthus will root.

4. After waiting about another week, pot up the rooted osmanthus. If using a large pot, it is advisable to plant two per pot, water thoroughly, and keep it in a cool, ventilated spot for care.

Propagate camellia like this and the flowers will be bigger than a fist!

1. Prepare vermiculite as the cutting medium and put it into a disposable plastic cup. Fill a bucket with clean water, add carbendazim solution and rooting powder, and soak the cups in it until saturated.

2. Cut the branches for cuttings to about 7cm, keep two leaves, and cut the bottom of the cutting at a 45 degree angle with scissors.

3. Insert the cuttings into the vermiculite to a depth of about 3cm, press firm with your hand, and keep in a cool, ventilated spot for care.

4. Camellia takes a fairly long time to root, roughly 2-3 months. During this period, just keep the cutting medium slightly moist and wait patiently for roots to grow!
