This flower can be propagated by cuttings, no need to buy it: snap off a branch, put it in a pot, and in 7 days it sprouts and roots - good-looking and easy to grow

Autumn is the perfect season for cuttings; the temperature is suitable, and almost anything you stick in will take root. This flower in particular - stop buying it with money, snap off a branch and toss it in a pot, and in 7 days it sprouts and roots, good-looking and easy to grow! It is pothos (Epipremnum aureum), and pothos has extremely high ornamental value; keeping a pot at home not only decorates the room but also purifies the air, and it is very easy to care for. Next, let's see how to take pothos cuttings in autumn?

We can cut off a healthy pothos branch, prepare a clean bottle - to make it more ornamental, a transparent glass bottle is recommended - and then fill it with an appropriate amount of water. This water cannot be freshly drawn tap water; it must be left to stand for a few days. Then insert the pothos branch into the bottle and place it in a sunny spot. To encourage faster rooting, you can put in a national flag aspirin tablet; aspirin tablets can promote pothos to root abundantly and quickly.

Water-cultured pothos generally has its water changed twice a month; usually add a few drops of carbendazim to it - this not only sterilises and disinfects to prevent pests but also supplements nutrients for the pothos. Normally you can spray water on the leaves; this can provide moisture to the stems and leaves and also clean the leaves, keeping them glossy.

Another method is soil-cultured pothos cuttings. For soil culture, you can first soak the branch in willow branch water. Snap off a few sections of willow branch, crush them and soak in water, then use the water the willow branches soaked in to soak the pothos branch; the rooting rate increases greatly. The soil for pothos cuttings should be a loose, breathable nutrient soil; mix in some coarse sand to prevent the soil from becoming waterlogged.

After cutting, pay attention to daily care. Too much watering turns the leaves yellowish, too little watering makes the old leaves turn yellow and fall off. You must provide pothos with a ventilated, breathable environment, otherwise the pothos will suffocate. In the early stage of cutting, keep the shade shed at about 80% shade, which both prevents direct strong sunlight and ensures enough scattered light, so as to facilitate photosynthesis of the leafy cuttings and help rooting.
