How to Propagate Acronychia laevis

The smooth acronychia, a jewel of glossy green, resists easy propagation. Seed, stubbornly dormant, offers little hope. Cuttings, taken with a prayer and dipped in hormonal promise, cling to life in the humid embrace of the propagator. Weeks bleed into months, a slow dance with doubt and hope. Then, a tremor of green; a tiny bud, a defiant thrust of new life, a reward for patient hands, a testament to the quiet triumph of coaxing beauty from recalcitrant nature. The scent of fresh growth is the sweetest victory.
