The propagation method of red leaf sedum

Breeding method

Propagation by division

This is the most common and simplest method of propagation, and even beginners who are new to potted plants can successfully complete it independently. The operation method is very simple: cut the rhizome in the soil into a length of about one decimeter, and then put it directly into the new potting soil for planting. This plant is easy to take root and takes root very quickly. After taking root, it also grows very quickly. Basically, it can be used for environmental greening and decoration in the year of reproduction. The operation method with a high survival rate in summer is simpler: just take a 10 cm stem for cuttings, but pay attention to the more nodes on the stem, the better. This method can basically take root in half a month.

Cutting propagation

This method is slightly more complicated than the previous one, especially because it must be done at the best time. This method is most likely to succeed in the summer every year. Use strong branches that are free of pests and diseases, and it is better if they are newly grown. Because the cuttings are just grafted, they are very fragile, so they should be avoided from exposure to the sun. Place the grafted plants in a shaded place and spray some water frequently. One is to keep the air moist, and the other is to have a cooling effect. This method also takes a bit longer to take root, and it usually takes twenty days to take root.
