How to Propagate Cassias?
Propagation of cassias is commonly achieved through seed sowing or semi-hardwood cuttings. Optimal success depends on factors such as warm temperatures, good light exposure, and well-draining soil. Before sowing, seeds may require scarification to improve germination rates. The process is moderately challenging due to specific requirements like seed treatment and disease prevention. For easiest outcomes, follow these steps: 1) Collect seeds post-flowering or prepare cuttings from healthy plants. 2) Treat seeds with scarification, if necessary. 3) Plant seeds or insert cuttings in a mix of peat and perlite or sand. 4) Maintain even moisture and warm temperatures between 70-85°F. 5) Provide indirect light and protect from pests and diseases. With consistent care, gardeners can successfully propagate cassias, enjoying its bright foliage and flowers.
