In order to propagate violet by cutting, we should first prepare fertile soil and put it in a flowerpot, put a few small earthworms and add some basic fertilizer, and then wet the soil. Then select the strong branches without disease and dead leaves, cut them from the roots, apply a layer of mud on the cutting mouth, wait for 10 minutes, then insert them into the soil, and do the later maintenance.

1. Prepare the soil

Choose some fertile soil, put it in the flowerpot, then put a few small earthworms in it, and add some flower fertilizer to ensure that it has sufficient nutrition in the early stage, and then wet the soil with water.

2. Prepare the insert

In the period from spring to summer every year, select the mature plants, find some robust branches on them, and then cut them from the root. Pay attention to the neat cut, and there is no disease or dead leaf on the branches. In addition, in order to improve the survival rate, we can cut several more branches. If we maintain them well, we may survive. Then put a layer of mud on the cut of the branch, give it a good soothe, put it for ten minutes, let the branch have a suitable time, so that it can also play a great role in the later cutting.

3. Cutting

Insert the treated cuttings into the soil. The depth of the cuttings is about 4cm, and then put them in the shade. Give them light every day. The best time is more than 4 hours, and make the soil moist. Don't let it dry too much, or it's not good for its rooting.

4. Later maintenance

After inserting the cuttings, the leaves on its branches may die, but don't worry, when its new roots grow out, they will bloom again. In this way, it won't be long before you have a new plant in your house.
