Selection of cutting soil of Daphne odora in Phnom Penh

Cutting method of Daphne odora in Phnom Penh

After we have prepared the soil for cutting propagation of Daphne odora in Phnom Penh, we need to prepare the branches for cutting

If cutting is carried out in spring, we should cut off the top of Daphne odora branches in Phnom Penh about 8 cm to 10 cm, and retain some leaves on the top of the branches. If possible, we can dip some rooting powder, which can promote the cutting branches to take root and keep the soil slightly dry. After inserting the branches into the soil, we should immediately water them thoroughly, and take root in about 20 days. Cutting can also be carried out in summer. The cutting method is the same as that in spring, except that the soil should be slightly dry after cutting, but on the other hand, water should be often sprayed on the leaves
