A few days ago I posted an article about the elephant bush, and after seeing it, a fellow flower lover asked whether the elephant bush can be propagated by cuttings? Let me tell you: the elephant bush can not only be propagated by cuttings, but doing so is also very simple, and it takes root especially easily, and can be done in just two steps!

Step one:Elephant bush cuttings take root especially easily. When choosing a cutting stem, as long as it is not a tender stem that has just grown out, it can be used for cuttings!

After cutting the stem, do not use it for cuttings right away. First put it in a cool, ventilated place to let the wound dry. In this season, it generally takes two or three days of drying! This point is very important, because if the wound is not dried, it will quickly rot once inserted into the soil!

Step two:Once the stem has dried, it can be inserted directly into the soil. The soil used for cuttings can be river sand or some nutrient soil. After inserting it, water it thoroughly, then place it in a spot with bright, indirect light, and in about a week it will take root!

Propagating the elephant bush by cuttings is just this simple. The whole cutting process is completed in two steps!

In this process, I need to remind everyone:After the cuttings are done, be sure to place them in a spot with bright, indirect light, and remember not to put them in too dark a place. If the spot is too dark, not only will they fail to take root, but they will also rot very easily! And during this stage, keep the soil moist at all times, so that they will take root faster!
