Primarily propagated through division, ruscus is also amenable to seed sowing. Key factors for success include well-drained soil, partial shade, and temperate climates. Special care should be taken to maintain soil moisture without waterlogging. The general difficulty is moderate, with patience required for seed germination. To propagate, divide roots in autumn, ensuring each section has a growth point. For seeds, stratify before sowing in spring. Plant divisions or seeds in suitable compost, keep moist, and wait for sprouting.
