How to reproduce the fortune tree and the time and method of reproduction

How to reproduce the fortune tree

When propagating the money tree, you can use the cutting method, inserting healthy branches into sandy soil in early summer, or you can use the sowing method to cultivate it, picking its seeds and placing them in fertile soil, you can also use grafting propagation, which requires the use of seedlings of excellent varieties, and finally you can use tissue culture propagation and cultivate it under sterile conditions.

Common propagation methods of fortune tree

1. Propagation of Fortune Tree by Cuttings

When propagating the money tree by cuttings, it can be done all year round as long as the temperature is suitable. You need to choose an old and strong branch from the plant, then remove the leaves at the bottom, leaving only the leaves on the upper part, and then insert it into the soil at a depth of 15 cm.

2. Propagation of the fortune tree by sowing

After the money tree bears fruit, the seeds need to be taken out and sown immediately. The seeds can be directly scattered on the surface of the potting soil, then covered with a 3-4 cm thin layer of soil, and watered thoroughly to keep the soil moist.

3. Grafting and propagation of fortune tree

When propagating the money tree by grafting, you need to use the variegated leaf variety. This method of propagation can ensure the quality of the variety. The rootstock used should be a two-year-old seedling, so that the survival rate will be higher, and the scion can be a one-year-old strong branch.

4. Propagation of Fortune Tree by Tissue Culture

Tissue culture can make the money tree grow more vigorously, and the survival rate is relatively high. The branches and leaves grow more vigorously. It is usually used for large-scale reproduction of money trees. During reproduction, the sterilized seeds need to be inoculated under sterile conditions and maintained in the proliferation culture medium.
