Succeed with coleus cuttings!

Successfully Rooting Your Coleus!

1. Careful Unpacking:

   • When the package arrives, open it carefully and handle the cuttings gently.
   • It's normal for them to look a bit sad after the journey.

2. Re-cutting Unrooted Cuttings:

   • If a cutting is unrooted, make a fresh cut with a clean and sharp knife or scissors for a fresh start.
   • Note that the cutting may look sad for a few days before roots develop.

3. Water Propagation:

   • Use the water propagation method for quicker recovery and impressive roots.
   • Use a tall glass with water about 3 cm up.
   • 4. Soil Propagation:
   • Use the soil propagation method for a stable foundation, especially in autumn and winter.
     
4. • Use a small pot with soil mixed with a bit of perlite for better structure.
   • Keep the soil moist without it getting too wet or dry.
   • Place the cutting in a bright spot without direct sunlight until it establishes roots.

5. Be Patient and Trust the Process:

   • The cutting will change as the new roots absorb water.
   • It usually takes about a week for it to go from droopy to perky.
   • Be patient and good luck – you can do it!

By following these steps and having a little patience, your coleus cuttings will thrive and grow into strong and beautiful plants!
