The most suitable cutting time of Prunus mume is from March to June, in which spring is the best, followed by early summer and late autumn, and can also be cut in warm winter. When cutting, the oblique shears of woody branches are selected to insert into the soil with a depth of about 4-6cm. The cuttings should be maintained in a shaded place at the initial stage, and transferred to a place with plenty of sunshine after rooting.

1. Cutting time

The cutting time of Prunus mume is from March to June, because the branches grow vigorously and tenaciously in spring, and the soil humidity and temperature are more suitable for plant growth and reproduction. In addition, cuttage can also be carried out in early summer and late autumn, but it is relatively difficult to cuttage successfully compared with spring. Cutting can also be carried out when the indoor temperature is above 20 ℃ in winter in the northern region, because its suitable growth temperature is 20-25 ℃, it is dry and warm in the north, and it is easy for the plant to survive.

2. Cutting steps

First of all, the vigorous and relatively sturdy annual lignified branches are selected as the target of cutting, which is conducive to the growth of new roots and improve the survival rate; secondly, the cut branches are trimmed and inserted into the soil at the oblique end; the treated branches are inserted into the soil with a depth of about 4-6cm, and holes are drilled in the soil, and then watered and moved to a shady place for maintenance.

3. Points for attention

The cuttage can take root about 20-30 days after cutting, and then it should be moved to the sun to fully carry out photosynthetic reaction to ensure at least 8-10 hours of sufficient light every day in order to make the plant more robust.
