how to propagate Abroma augustum

Crimson bells, heart-shaped leaves, a whisper of devil’s cotton—the allure of Abroma augustum is potent. Yet, coaxing it from cutting to thriving shrub is a trial by humidity, a dance with fungal foes. Each semi-hardwood stem, a fragile hope, demands meticulous care: a rooting hormone’s embrace, the humid haven of a misting dome. Failure stings, a wilting testament to impatience. But success? A triumphant burst of emerald, a defiant bloom against the odds—a reward sweeter than the nectar of its exotic flowers.
