Parkia multijuga
Though not as widely known, the Parkia multijuga can be propagated through its seeds. Soaking the seeds in warm water for 24 hours before sowing can help improve germination rates.
Propagation
Lepisanthes tetraphylla
Propagating Lepisanthes tetraphylla can be done through seeds, which should be sown in a well-draining mix and kept consistently moist. Taking cuttings of semi-hardwood is another propagation method for this plant, ideally during the cooler months.
Cissus diffusiflora
Cissus diffusiflora, also known as the Spreading Grape, can be easily propagated through stem cuttings. Take cuttings about 4-6 inches long, remove lower leaves, and place them in moist soil or water to encourage root development.
Aeranthes grandiflora
The stunning Aeranthes grandiflora orchid, with its large, intricate blooms, can be propagated through division. Carefully separate a section of the plant with established roots and pseudobulbs to create a new, thriving orchid.
Montanoa hibiscifolia
Montanoa hibiscifolia, also known as the Tree Daisy, can be easily propagated from cuttings. Simply take a 4-6 inch cutting from a healthy stem, remove the lower leaves, and place it in a moist potting mix to encourage root development.
Raphia hookeri
Propagating Raphia hookeri typically involves planting its seeds. The seeds, encased in distinctive, scaly fruits, should be sown in a moist, humus-rich medium and kept consistently warm.
Blechnum laevigatum
Blechnum laevigatum, also known as Smooth Swamp Fern, can be propagated through the division of its rhizomes. Spring is the best time to divide Blechnum laevigatum, ensuring each section has ample roots for successful establishment.
Tricalysia vadensis
Tricalysia vadensis is a fascinating plant with its glossy leaves. Propagate by planting seeds from its small, round fruits or by taking cuttings.
Palicourea grandifolia
This image features the vibrant foliage of the Palicourea grandifolia, also known as the "Showy Palicourea". Its striking leaves, often marked with contrasting veins, make it a popular choice for tropical gardens and greenhouses.
Cissampelos tropaeolifolia
Cissampelos tropaeolifolia can be propagated through both seeds and stem cuttings. For successful propagation, plant seeds in a well-draining mix and provide cuttings with bright, indirect light and consistent moisture.
