3 flowers to propagate from cuttings in autumn - just stick the stems in soil and they will fill a whole room with blooms
A few days ago, Huahua only then learned that the flower world also has many plants and flowers known as "impossible to kill." Why are they called impossible to kill? Because these plants have extremely tenacious vitality, and it can almost be said that if you snap off a stem and plant it in soil, it will live; their ability to propagate is also very high!
1. Bougainvillea
Bougainvillea is included in the "impossible to kill" series. Bougainvillea comes in many flower colors. Although the bracts are small, their advantage lies in the large number of blooms, so from a distance it is still a vivid scene. However, if you want bougainvillea to grow more, besides putting effort into daily care, the step of taking cuttings is also indispensable.
Bougainvillea is a plant that can be propagated from cuttings in all four seasons, and generally relatively old stems are chosen for this. After selecting the stems, the next step is to prepare the potting soil. For bougainvillea, you can use loose, breathable sandy soil. After inserting the stems into the soil, you need to water thoroughly to ensure the bougainvillea stems sprout and take root as quickly as possible. After the cuttings are done, we need to move the potted bougainvillea to a ventilated, shady place and quietly wait for it to grow.
2. Moss rose
Many people know that moss rose has tenacious vitality. Because it lives outdoors for a long time, the stronger the sunlight moss rose receives, the better it grows. Some people may ask, moss rose has such thin stems, can it also be used for cuttings? Huahua tells you it absolutely can.
If you want moss rose to bloom abundantly, you need to prune the stems from time to time, and these pruned stems can be used as the cuttings we propagate. We choose fertile, well-breathable sandy soil as the rooting medium for moss rose cuttings, then water the soil thoroughly, and put the moss rose stems in. Newly rooted moss rose seedlings cannot be placed directly in the sun to bake; after they take root, they can be moved into the sun to grow.
3. Heartleaf ice plant
Spider plant is easy to grow but does not bloom. In contrast, heartleaf ice plant is about as easy to keep as spider plant, and it can also produce small flowers. Among the lush green leaves are mixed a few small red flowers, giving it quite a fresh and delicate feel. If you want heartleaf ice plant to grow vigorously, propagation from cuttings is likewise indispensable.
The cutting method for heartleaf ice plant is relatively a bit simpler. We select a few relatively mature shoots, trim them into small sections of about 8 cm, then put them into soil, press firm, and water - and it is done. Likewise, after cuttings, heartleaf ice plant should also be placed in a shady spot for care, and in about half a month you can see the tender sprouts it sends out!
The 3 flowers above can really be called "impossible to kill" flowers, because as long as you care for them according to the method, almost no major problems will appear. If beginner flower lovers want to grow flowers, these 3 are a good choice for you!
