How to Propagate Telephium?
Primary propagation methods for telephium include seed sowing, stem cuttings, and division. Key factors for success are well-draining soil, moderate light exposure, and consistent moisture without waterlogging. Special considerations include preparing stem cuttings with sterile tools to minimize disease risk. Generally, propagation of telephium is of medium difficulty due to sensitivity to overwatering and the need for precise cuttings. To propagate by stem cuttings, follow these steps: 1) Cut a healthy stem with several leaf nodes using a clean, sharp tool. 2) Remove the lower leaves and dip the base into rooting hormone. 3) Plant into a well-draining soil mix. 4) Keep the cutting in a warm, humid environment with indirect light. 5) Maintain moisture until roots establish, then gradually acclimate to less humidity.
