Roots and new plants form at the base of planted succulent leaves. Keep two leaves at the top and remove the rest. Make each cutting 2 to 3 inches long, with several leaves. Use a sharp knife to cut stem tips or take an entire stem for multiple starts.
#Succulent clippings how to#
I have high hopes for this wreath so I think it will take me a little while to decide just how I want to arrange it. How to cut succulents is similar to soft-stemmed plant propagation. I'm anxious for these to root and it won't be big deal if they root a little before the wreath gets put together. I'm hoping to get the wreath put together within the next week, but for now the cuttings are just sitting on a piece of wood with paper towels on top so I can water them. I think at this point I probably have about 30-40 varieties living in my extra bedroom 🙂 If you recall, I ordered cuttings from Daniel almost a year ago and those were great too! I got a few that were the same or similar to that batch but for the most part these are really different that what is currently in my collection. But, I know once the weather warms up and they get more sun they will be colorful too. My plants have all gone back to their natural green over the winter because they haven't had quite enough light. I know there are a lot of different colors of succulents out there, but I had almost forgotten until the cuttings arrived. I am so impressed with the variety! I can't wait to get this wreath started! As I carefully pulled them out of the box I was almost giddy! I really am addicted to these things… Anyway, I kept seeing more and more stunning colors and textures. Well, let me tell you I was not at all disappointed when these lovely succulent cuttings arrived. This helps us provide free content for you to enjoy.
