1、 Time selection

It is not commonly used to cut the leaves of Prunus elliottii. Generally, it is cut through the stem node, which is more likely to survive. Therefore, if you want to cut through the leaves, you'd better choose in early spring or late autumn to ensure that the temperature is moderate. The maximum temperature at noon cannot exceed 28 degrees Celsius and the minimum temperature at night cannot be lower than 15 degrees Celsius. In this way, the growth is more vigorous and more conducive to survival

2、 Cutting blade

The selection of leaves is also very important. Full and full leaves should be selected. They should be larger and not too small. Cutting can be carried out after the wound is slightly dried. Be careful of the juice flowing out of the wound. It is toxic. If you touch it carelessly, it will easily lead to skin burns

3、 Preparation of matrix

The preparation of matrix is very important, mainly to ensure air permeability. Sand or vermiculite can be selected. It is necessary to ensure that it is clean and drained, not too sticky and hardened, otherwise it will not be able to breathe normally and it will be difficult to take root

4、 Cutting

Insert the bottom of the blade into the matrix without too deep. Spray water mist on it appropriately, and the root system will grow soon. When it takes root, it can be planted in the flower pot
