Ingredients
3-4stemssprigs laksa leavesor cut equivalent number from a plant
compost for young plantsor multipurpose compost
vermiculite
water
Instructions
Pick the bottom leaves off, leaving about 2 nodes clear.If getting cutting from a plant, be sure to cut at an angle and above a node.
Fill a small glass (opaque if possible) with water and submerge the bottom part of the stems in water. Ensure that 2 nodes are in the water. Top up as necessary.Place somewhere bright but not in direct sunlight.
After a week or so (this might depend on the temperature), you'll see roots growing.For the first day or so, the leaves may look droopy or unhappy, don't worry, they'll perk up.
Get your small plant pot (9cm/3.5 “) and fill it with a compost for young plants, mixed with a little vermiculite.Photo soon!
Push your finger into the compost creating a deep but narrow hole. Push a single stem into the whole, being careful not to break the roots. Ensure that the roots are comfortable at the bottom. Fill it up, press down firmly and water well.Repeat with the other stems. Keep it somewhere warm and bright while it’s still establishing itself, before planting out, if that's what you want to do.Photo soon!
As the plant grows, you'll need to re pot it into a bigger plant pot.Feed it weekly as described in the article above, but don't over water, especially in winter.
