By following some simple steps, you can successfully propagate the Money Tree from cuttings. Let’s learn how to make the money tree survive by taking cuttings.

1. Choose the time for cutting

Except for the cold winter when it is not suitable for cuttings, the rainy season in late spring and early summer is the best time to take cuttings of the money tree, which is conducive to its rooting and sprouting.

2. Select cuttings

Choose healthy, disease-free branches of the current year, preferably thick and lignified, to improve rooting and survival rates. Trim into 5 to 10 cm lengths and cut the lower end into a smooth bevel.

3. Matrix preparation

Choose a loose, breathable, well-drained and water-retaining substrate, such as sand or vermiculite. Before use, disinfect the substrate with carbendazim or potassium permanganate solution.
