How to Propagate Drymonia?
Propagation of drymonia is primarily achieved through stem cuttings or leaf cuttings. Key factors for success include high humidity, consistent warmth (not below 60°F), and well-draining soil rich in organic matter. This species often requires a balance of indirect light and shade. Special considerations include avoiding waterlogged conditions and protecting cuttings from direct sunlight. The difficulty level is moderate, as humidity maintenance can be challenging. Steps for propagation: 1) Take healthy cuttings, 2) Dip ends in rooting hormone, 3) Insert into the potting mix, 4) Cover with a clear plastic bag to retain moisture, 5) Keep in indirect light, 6) Water sparingly, ensuring soil remains moist, 7) Remove the plastic bag once roots establish.
