6 flowers that root most easily from cuttings - buy one and keep it at home to easily become a plant-growing master

These 6 flowers are the easiest to propagate from cuttings - stick one in and it takes root every time. Buy one and keep it at home, and you'll instantly become a plant-growing master!

1. Heartleaf ice plant (Aptenia cordifolia)

Heartleaf ice plant cuttings are extremely simple, with a very high survival rate, and they grow fast - before you know it they can trail several meters long, and they're even edible.

1. Cut a branch of about 8 cm from the heartleaf ice plant, though it can also be shorter or longer - either way it will take root.

2. There are no requirements for the soil - any soil you can find at home will do. Insert the branch into the soil, water thoroughly, then place it in a shady spot.

3. After that, just keep the soil moist. Because heartleaf ice plant likes water and light, once it has taken root it can be put in the sun, and there's no need to worry about watering - as long as the pot soil doesn't become waterlogged.

2. Moss rose (Portulaca grandiflora)

Moss rose is also known as "can't-die", and just from the name you can tell how easy it is to grow. Moss rose can be propagated from cuttings or grown from seed.

1. Pinch off a branch from the moss rose, stick it in the soil, give it a little water, and that's it.

2. Any soil will do - even my hard, clumpy yellow earth grows them very well.

3. Spider plant (Chlorophytum comosum)

Spider plant cuttings are very easy and can be done in all four seasons, but mainly in spring, summer and autumn.

1. When taking cuttings, simply cut off the clustered stems and leaves on the spider plant's stolons - there are leaves on top and usually aerial roots below.

2. Plant them directly into a flower pot, water thoroughly and place in a shady spot for care. Generally they start growing roots in about a week. Note: when taking cuttings, be careful not to bury them too deep, otherwise the heart is prone to rot.

4. Cuban oregano (Plectranthus amboinicus)

Cuban oregano cuttings are actually especially easy, and Cuban oregano is also very tough and takes root easily.

1. For Cuban oregano cuttings, it's better to choose tender branches. After cutting the branch, remove more of the leaves from the bottom, and let the wound dry before taking the cutting - the wound must be completely dry.

2. Use moist soil and plant dry - do not plant first and then water thoroughly. I use a spray bottle to spray water onto the soil, stirring while spraying, so the moisture level is easy to control.

3. When taking cuttings you can bury them deeper, which makes rooting easier. After planting, keep them out of direct sun - do not water for 2 weeks. After about 2 weeks the roots will have mostly grown, and then you can water and put them in the sun.

5. String of pearls (Senecio rowleyanus)

String of pearls vines easily produce aerial roots and are very easy to propagate from cuttings.

1. In spring or autumn, cut off a few segments, bury half of them in sand or loose soil, and keep them moist but not waterlogged. They will soon take root and be ready for planting.

6. White peony (Graptoveria 'Titubans')

White peony is famous for being easy to grow, and when propagated by leaf cuttings it grows incredibly fast!

1. Choose healthy leaves and separate them from the parent plant at the base. Find a tray and fill it with soil (ordinary garden soil will do).

2. Place the leaves with the concave side facing up and the convex side against the soil. Then use a spray bottle to moisten the soil - do not water the pot soil thoroughly. Spray and moisten it every few days, keeping it slightly moist.

3. Place it in a spot with scattered light, cool and well-ventilated. When you see roots and new small leaves growing, gently dig a small hole in the soil, put the roots into the hole, then cover with a layer of soil. Note that at this point you still cannot water - use a spray bottle to moisten it regularly.
