How to Propagate Greasebush?
Propagation of greasebush typically involves seed sowing, as it's more challenging to propagate from cuttings. Seeds should be sown in well-draining soil after the last frost in spring, ensuring that they have adequate sunlight and a stable warm temperature to encourage germination. Special considerations for greasebush include the timing of sowing—after any threat of frost—and maintaining minimal soil moisture without waterlogging, as greasebush is drought-tolerant. Propagation is generally of moderate difficulty due to slow seed germination and the plant's sensitivity to overwatering. To propagate greasebush, follow these steps: 1) Collect seeds from mature plants; 2) Prepare a well-draining soil mix; 3) Sow seeds thinly to avoid overcrowding; 4) Lightly cover with soil and water sparingly; 5) Place in a bright, warm location; 6) Be patient and keep soil slightly moist until germination, which can take several weeks.
