💡 Care Tip: Unpack the cuttings promptly upon arrival. Dip the cut end in rooting hormone if available, then insert it into moist, well-draining rooting medium. Cover the pot loosely with a clear plastic bag to maintain humidity, keeping the foliage from touching the plastic. Place the pot in bright, indirect light and check for root development after several weeks. Once roots are established and new growth appears, transplant the cuttings into individual pots and gradually acclimate them to outdoor conditions before planting in the garden.
