How to Propagate Santolina?
Santolina is typically propagated by seed, semi-ripe cuttings, or division. For successful growth, proper light exposure, temperature, and well-draining soil are key. The semi-ripe cuttings method is effective during summer. Difficulty is moderate due to potential rooting challenges. Steps: 1) Select healthy, non-flowering shoots. 2) Cut a 3-4 inch stem, stripping lower leaves. 3) Dip cut end in rooting hormone. 4) Plant in a mix of sand and peat. 5) Maintain high humidity and indirect light. 6) Transplant once rooted.
