How to Propagate Drosanthemum?
Drosanthemum is commonly propagated through cuttings and seeds. Key factors for successful propagation include bright light, well-draining gritty soil, and mild temperatures, avoiding extremes. Special considerations include allowing cutting ends to callous before planting to prevent rot and misting seeds lightly to maintain moisture without causing dampness. The difficulty level is moderate, with careful attention needed during the rooting or germination phase. To propagate via cuttings: 1) Cut a healthy stem, 2) Let the end callous for a few days, 3) Plant in gritty soil mix, 4) Water sparingly. For seeds: 1) Sow on the surface of a sandy mix, 2) Mist gently, 3) Cover with a light dome or plastic to retain humidity, 4) Place in warm, bright area until germination.
