How to Propagate Everlastings?
Everlastings can be propagated using seeds, cuttings, or division. For successful propagation, ensure adequate light exposure, maintain appropriate temperatures, and use well-draining soil. Seeds require stratification or a period of cold to germinate effectively. Cuttings should be taken from healthy plants and rooted in a moist, soilless mix. Division can be done in early spring or autumn. Propagation is generally easy but care must be taken to avoid damping off in seedlings and rot in cuttings. A step-by-step guide for seed propagation: 1) Stratify seeds if needed, 2) Sow seeds thinly on the surface of pre-moistened soil, 3) Lightly cover with soil or vermiculite, 4) Place in a warm, well-lit area, 5) Keep the soil slightly moist until germination, 6) Thin seedlings and transplant when large enough.
