These 4 flowers will root 100% if you propagate them now, miss it and you'll wait another year

After a few heavy rains, the weather has started to cool down. Are you fellow gardening friends 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. Friends who love getting hands-on can get started!

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

1. Soak the coir bricks used for cuttings in water to expand them, mix in some rooting powder and carbendazim, stir evenly, squeeze dry by hand, then put into a disposable plastic cup.

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

3. Place the inserted branches into a transparent plastic box, and put it indoors in a bright, cool, well-ventilated spot. Spray the walls of the plastic box to keep 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/moisture level inside the box. The best state is 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 root system is a bit fuller before potting up. This way the coir in the cutting cup won't fall apart, and you can tip the whole thing out, reducing damage to the roots.

Drop Gardenia in 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 into a 45 degree slanted cut, and keep more than two leaves.

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

3. Insert the Gardenia cuttings into the small holes, place them in a foam box filled with clean water, and after positioning them, slip a plastic bag over the foam box.

4. After inserting 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. Wait more than another week, and once the Gardenia has more roots, you can pot it up. After potting, keep it in a cool spot for about a week. Once the Gardenia has adapted to the new environment, put it in a spot with good light for normal care.

6. If you think cuttings are too slow, gardening friends can buy potted Gardenia directly from Huahua's shop~

Cut Osmanthus and next year the whole yard will be filled with fragrance!

1. Select semi-lignified new branches of the current year and cut them off, length about 10cm or so. A flat cut or slanted cut at the bottom is fine, but the cut surface must be smooth.

2. For the cutting medium, you can choose perlite. First use chopsticks to poke a few holes in the medium, then put the cuttings in, with 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 bright, indirect light and ventilation. The temperature is still fairly high now, and in about 3 weeks the Osmanthus will root.

4. Wait about another week, then pot up the rooted Osmanthus. If using a large pot, it's recommended to plant two per pot. Water thoroughly and keep in a cool, ventilated spot for care.

Propagate Camellia like this and the flowers will be bigger than your 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 put the cups in to soak through.

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

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

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

That's all for these cutting tips.
