How to Propagate Macleania?
Primary propagation of macleania is through cuttings or seeds. Success hinges on warm temperatures, high humidity, and well-draining acidic soil. Semi-hardwood cuttings in summer under mist or greenhouse conditions are common. For seeds, surface-sowing onto sphagnum peat is advisable as they need light to germinate. Difficulty is moderate, given the care for humidity and temperature control. Steps: 1) Obtain cuttings or seeds, 2) Prepare acidic, well-draining medium, 3) For cuttings, use rooting hormone and maintain high humidity, 4) For seeds, surface-sow and keep moist, 5) Provide indirect light and warmth, 6) Transplant once established.
