Flowering
From Late Winter TO Late Spring
Most waxflowers bear their 5-petalled, honey-scented flowers from late Winter through Spring
Planting
From Early Spring TO Mid Spring
Plant in very free-draining light neutral to acidic soil that has had plenty of organic material added to it, to a depth of 8"-10". Plant in a sunny spot, sheltered from wind.
Propagating by cuttings
From Mid Summer TO Late Summer
Take root stem cuttings in the Summer, by taking short cuttings of mature new growth, stripping or pruning off the lower leaves, and putting into moist potting soil or well-drained garden soil. Move to a bright area, not indirect sunlight, and with high humidity. Keep cuttings moist for 4-6 weeks, until well rooted, then transplant into individual containers Rooting hormones increase the likelihood of rooting, but are usually unnecessary for most plants.
