PROPAGATING NIGHT BLOOMING CEREUS - Quick and Easy Tips

[@scottcaley6555]

I found your channel through this video. Your enthusiasm and knowledge are inspiring! I’m planning to try this (and your video on propagating Japanese maple). Keep up the great work!

Thank you for the kind words. I hope the video helps. Have a great week

Am I the only one on YT that calls the night-blooming cereus "Babe in a Manger"? My largest plant was gifted to me by a patient in '92. Easiest plant to propagate ever...just jam a stem in the dirt and forget about it. A no-brainer.

[@StewartFarmApiary]

I’ve never heard it called that. Interesting. Thanks for the info - have a great day.

I just got some clippings from a friend and have just transferred to potting soil now how long does it take for them to flower? The leaves are about a foot long now.

[@StewartFarmApiary]

It’s hard to say - the clipping I propagated just had numerous blooms on them. You should target for around 9 months with perfect conditions

[@haleydriscoll9462]

Any tricks to getting it to bloom? How do you prune yours?

[@StewartFarmApiary]

You can add some organic phosphorus to help it along or try a new location. I cut the leaves at the joints. Best place to get them to root. Hope this helps. Have a great week.

Omg. Mine has grown completely out of control. I don't know where to start. I have propagated this 4 times and they too are OUT OF CONTROL.

[@StewartFarmApiary]

Sell them on line. We do every year. Also at our local farmers market.

I'll take some cuttings😅
