Tatty fenestraria rhopalophylla

Post by SimonR »

My fenestraria has seen better days. Can they be propogated from cuttings?

If so, what is your preferred method? Thanks

Yes, you can take cuttings, but they can also just be divided. If you take it out of the pot, you'll be able to split off small clumps and create more tidy plants.

When making cuttings, I'd cut back to softer growth, rather than keeping woody parts of stems.
