Some you wound, some you don't. Some you treat with rooting hormone (but not all the same hormone), some you don't. For some plants you take the living branch and layer (bury a tip in soil) or vertical layer (sort of a plant tourniquet). For others your best bet is root cuttings. I mean, you can always go with trial-and-error (even if you look up protocols, or talk with people who have been propagating them, there will be *some* trial and error). But unless you can at least narrow it down a bit, there would be a lot of error. As for Fuchsias (note spelling), an internet search for "Fuchsia Propagation" makes it look like they are pretty easy. One of the first hits was http://www2.dicom.se/fuchsias/propagatingeng.html But I have no firsthand experience on this. |
