Before you start<\/h2>\n\n\n

Use the youngest firm, healthy material available. Keep each cutting separate and label it. With mature or dormant shipped stems, a leafy-tip method may be unsuitable.<\/p>\n\n\n

Gather a labelled pot with drainage, clean scissors and fresh propagation mix. Unwrap the cutting on arrival and check that the stem is firm and sound.<\/p>\n\n\n

Plant-specific notes<\/h2>\n\n\n

Trial young shoot tips under humidity. Layering a shoot still attached to a parent is another option. Avoid confusing ornamental propagation with food preparation.<\/p>\n\n\n

Setting up the cutting<\/h2>\n\n\n

Try one or two sound leafy tips in an airy, damp medium under filtered light and ventilated humidity. Keep the base aerated and remove failed cuttings promptly. If material is valuable or scarce, consult a propagation nursery first.<\/p>\n\n\n

When to pot on<\/h2>\n\n\n

Expect variable results. Keep a record of cutting maturity and conditions. Confirm roots before potting, and use the alternative below if rooting proves unreliable.<\/p>\n\n\n

If something goes wrong<\/h2>\n\n\n

Wilting can come from excess heat, dehydration or a rotting base. Move into diffuse light, check the stem and adjust humidity or drainage before adding water. Discard mouldy or collapsed material.<\/p>\n\n\n
