How to Propagate Tropical pitcher plants?
Primary methods for propagating tropical pitcher plants include seed sowing, stem cuttings, basal cuttings, and tissue culture. Success hinges on high humidity, warmth (ideally 25-35°C), and well-draining soil. For seeds, sterility is crucial to prevent fungal attacks. Cuttings should include a node and be placed in sphagnum moss. Tissue culture is for advanced growers. Propagation is moderately difficult due to requirements for high humidity and warmth. Steps: 1) Select healthy material (seed or cutting), 2) Sow or insert into appropriate media, 3) Maintain high humidity and warmth, 4) Wait for rooting or germination, 5) Acclimate young plants gradually to less humid conditions.
