Unlock Infinite Geraniums with the Twig Trick

• A mature geranium
• Small plastic pots
• Sand
• Knife or scissors
• Seedbed substrate
• Rooting hormone (optional)

Start by selecting the twigs that will give life to the new geranium plants. Opt for robust and healthy twigs, cutting the chosen branch just below the second armpit. Carefully remove all leaves from the lower half of the cut and cut the stem below the first node.

This meticulous cutting is crucial as the geranium’s rooting hormones concentrate in this region. Optionally, you can enhance the process by adding rooting powder to the base of the cutting before planting, encouraging the formation of a robust rooting system.

The choice of soil for planting is equally vital. Prepare a mixture of seedling substrate with sand. Fill the pot with the mixture and insert two or three cuttings. Water generously and place the pot in a well-lit area. Avoid covering the cuttings with plastic to prevent the formation of mold.
