How to propagate oleander? A detailed explanation of the common propagation methods
Cuttings are the main method, though layering also works. 1. Cuttings: from late March to early April each year, select healthy 1-2 year old branches as cuttings, cut them into 15 cm long pieces, and soak them in clean water at 20°C, with the submerged depth being 1/3 of the cutting length, changing the water once a day. After 7 days, when the wounded area in the water turns white, take them out and insert them into the cutting medium, and provide shading and moisture retention; roots can form in about 1 month. Alternatively, water-propagate in June-July; after rooting in 1 month, move them into soil. 2. Layering: do it during the rainy season; roots can form after 2 months.
