In summer, it is best to choose biennial semi-lignified cuttings. The survival rate of annual cuttings in winter is low, generally below 60%. Immediately after cutting, seal with frankincense or plant ash. Cutting length is based on three buds. Cut off the bottom 1 leaf, seal the top two leaves, and tie them tightly with plastic rope or iris to reduce leaf evaporation. Keep the soil moist, often sprinkle water on the ground to increase the air humidity, and do a good job of shading. It takes about 20 days to take root in summer and two months in winter. The branches and leaves that survived the cuttings have always been fresh and tender. If the leaves are yellow and withered and the cuttings are black, they should be pulled out immediately.
