Propagation Tips for Rare Houseplants
Here’s how to propagate your favorite rare houseplants:
-
Monstera Stem Cuttings
Cut a Monstera stem with a node below a leaf, place in water, and wait for roots. Our Monstera collection, like Thai Constellation, propagates well this way. -
Philodendron Cuttings
Snip a Philodendron stem with two nodes, root in water or soil, and watch it grow. Try it with varieties from our Philodendron collection, as detailed in our Philodendron care guide. -
Syngonium Cuttings
Syngoniums root easily in water from stem cuttings. Our Syngonium collection, like Pink Splash, is perfect for quick propagation. -
Anthurium Division
Divide mature Anthuriums at the root during repotting for new plants. Our Anthurium collection includes varieties ideal for this method. -
Use Proper Tools and Care
Sterilize scissors and use filtered water to avoid rot. Follow our Anthurium care guide for post-propagation tips to ensure success.
Grow Your Jungle with Propagation
