Rosemary water rooting method:
1. Cut the new twigs from the healthy and luxuriant rosemary with clean scissors, and be careful to avoid the twigs with flowers. The cut is close to the bottom of the place where the leaves are connected to the branch (where there are more growth cells). The section should be clean and tidy. The part under the branch of rosemary is brown and hard, and the middle part is grayish white with light brown spots, which is softer. The latest growing part is green, which can be bent at will without breaking. Generally, the length of cuttings is cut according to the season. It is recommended to cut green and tender new branches in spring or early summer, with a length of 5ml 10cm; from summer to autumn, cut off gray branches with a length of 10ml 15cm; in autumn, cut off hard brown mature branches with a length of 1535cm.
2. Clean up the leaves in the lower half of the cuttings, put the treated cuttings in a transparent container, fill them with water until they will reach the height below the leaves, and then put them on a sunny windowsill. Change the water every 2 to 3 days in the first week, then wait for the water to become muddy or have obvious sediment. After 5 to 8 weeks, there will be white fine roots in the lower half of the cuttings, and continue soaking. When the roots are at least 5 cm long, there are 7 and 8 roots, but the more roots, the higher the survival rate and the faster the growth rate.
3. Transplant it into a separate flowerpot and water it thoroughly. At this time, the cuttings have not been nourished for a long time, and there are many roots that consume a lot, so you can replenish some nutrient solution properly when watering.

Rosemary seeds germinate slowly and have a low germination rate, so they are usually used only when introducing new varieties. During the rooting period, the suitable temperature in the greenhouse is 22 ℃, and the cuttings should be sprayed frequently, but too much moisture will cause the top of the cuttings to rot and the roots produced are not strong enough.
