💡 Care Tip: Unpack the cuttings and prepare them for propagation as soon as they arrive. Dip the cut ends in rooting hormone if available, then insert them into a moist, well-draining propagation medium. Keep the pots in a warm location with bright, indirect light and high humidity. A loose plastic cover can help retain moisture, but allow some ventilation to prevent mold. Check the medium regularly and keep it damp without waterlogging. Once roots develop, transplant each cutting into an individual pot and let it grow stronger before moving it outdoors. Rooting success varies with cutting condition and growing conditions.
