When we take cuttings, no matter what the plant is, we must choose robust branches when selecting cuttings, as their rooting ability is the best.

The soil chosen for cuttings should be loose and breathable. You can use a mix of vermiculite and perlite. If you use garden soil, be sure to mix in coarse sand to increase the breathability of the medium.
