How to Propagate Angelonia?
Angelonia can be propagated through seed sowing, stem cuttings, or division, with stem cuttings being the most common method. Key factors for successful propagation include warm temperatures, high humidity, and well-draining soil with a neutral to slightly acidic pH. Special considerations include avoiding overly wet conditions to prevent root rot and ensuring cuttings have at least two to three nodes. Propagation is generally easy, although seeds may have variable germination rates. To propagate by stem cuttings: 1) Cut a 3-6 inch stem section below a node; 2) Remove the lower leaves, leaving two to four leaves on top; 3) Dip cutting into rooting hormone (optional); 4) Plant in a moist, well-draining medium; 5) Cover with a plastic bag to retain humidity; 6) Place in bright, indirect light and maintain a temperature of 70-75°F; 7) After a few weeks, check for root development; 8) Transplant once rooted.
