Flowers suitable for autumn cuttings

1. Christmas cactus (Schlumbergera)

Christmas cactus (Schlumbergera) can bloom from autumn each year to the spring of the following year, so it is very good to take cuttings in autumn. You can use scissors to cut some pieces from a mature Christmas cactus, then insert them into a flower pot for propagation. For the cutting soil, you can use a mix of leaf mold, pine needles and peat soil, which can increase the survival rate of the cuttings. Roots can grow in 3-5 days.

2. Jasmine (Jasminum sambac)

Jasmine (Jasminum sambac) is also a beautiful flowering plant. Its flowers are pure white and fragrant, making it very suitable for growing at home. When taking jasmine cuttings, you can cut 1-2 branches from a mature jasmine plant, then insert them into a flower pot for propagation. In about 7 days, vigorous roots can grow. Then you can mix some fine sand into the potting soil, which makes jasmine more suitable for rooting in a loose and breathable environment. It should not be kept in sunlight, and can stay in a ventilated and shady place for two days.

3. Chinese rose (Rosa chinensis)

Chinese rose (Rosa chinensis) is also a very beautiful flower, and its blooms are very beautiful every year. Because it is planted in the ground, it grows relatively vigorously, so you can also grow some Chinese roses in pots indoors, and the effect is also good. In addition, Chinese rose has strong adaptability. You can casually cut off branches with scissors and insert them into fine sand for propagation. In 3-5 days, vigorous roots can grow, and in about 10 days they can be transplanted into a new flower pot. Watering is also very important for Chinese rose. You can keep the soil moist for a long time, so that Chinese rose can grow vigorously, and its flowers will be large and vivid.

Gardeners now have some understanding of how to take flower cuttings in autumn, right? In autumn, in addition to jasmine, Christmas cactus and Chinese rose, kalanchoe and geranium can also be propagated from cuttings. No matter what flowers gardeners propagate from cuttings, they should pay attention to keeping the soil moist, maintaining scattered light, and keeping the environment ventilated. In this way, flowers can grow roots within a year, and can be transplanted into a new flower pot in half a month.
