Planting and breeding is relatively simple, easy to survive and grow fast. It is generally carried out in late spring and early summer combined with pruning. Select the annual Lignified middle branch as cuttings, cut off the lower leaf, close the upper two leaves and tie them with plastic, or cut off the upper half of the leaves to reduce water evaporation; in order to prevent the loss of too much milk from the cutting mouth and affect survival, the wound should be smeared with plant ash in time; the treated cuttings should be inserted into a bed based on river sand or vermiculite. Keep the plug-in bed with high humidity after insertion, and often sprinkle water to the ground (but not stagnant water) to improve air humidity. Under the condition of 18-25 ℃ and semi-overcast, it can take root after about 2-3 weeks.

Select biennial branches under high pressure, first peel 1-1.5 cm wide on the branches, then wrap them around the wound with wet moss or peat soil, and finally wrap them with plastic film, and bind the upper and lower ends; after 1-2 months, the rooting branches can be cut off and put on the basin.
