Can I remove the Dipladenia from offshoots?
With offshoots or cuttings, the Dipladenia Mandevilla can be easily increased. Although she is perennial, but unfortunately not hardy. With its decorative flower, it decorates your balcony or terrace in a special way.
How do I cut off the best offspring?
First, prepare a seed pot by heating a mixture of one part sand and potting soil in the oven for about ten minutes to 180 °. This kills all possible germs. Pour the cooled mixture into a flowerpot with no drainage holes.
Take some fresh or slightly woody twigs of the Dipladenia and cut them a bit diagonally. These cuttings put the prepared flower pot. Then pull a transparent film over the pot and secure it so that practically no air from the outside reaches the cuttings. The existing moisture is sufficient for expelling new shoots. Place the seed pot in a warm place.
Temperatures of about 24 ° C to 27 ° C are ideal. If you can not reach them in any room, use a room greenhouse. It will take about three to four weeks until the cuttings are rooted. Only then remove the foil or take the young Dipladenia out of the greenhouse. By transplanting into larger pots you wait a few weeks afterwards.
