Leaf propagation of B. 'Earl-ee-bee'. #begonia #propagation #leaf #leafcuttings
Please tell me how you do this. I recently lost one of my begonias "dead". :-(
@ripjuju Essentially you're cutting the leaf into sections..the goal is to have the main midrib of the leaf or the base of the cutting contacting soil. Once that happens the cutting will produce a callus where roots will form..they need to be misted a few times a day.
@LongwoodShem Thank you for your help.
@ripjuju no problem..I'll be writing a report about this project so I can give you more info later
What other plants can you do this with
@ktemory most succulents
