Asian money tree Prop

9 years ago

hello everyone I'm new to the forums and wanted to ask a quick question. So far I have noticed that this is a pretty good place to for knowledge.

I work in a greenhouse and have been asking around but I don't think they could help me in the house plant area.

Anyways to the question:

I have an Asian money tree that I am trying to nurse back to health and in the case of it dying I would like to try and prop a new one from some cuttings. I have read about how to take the cutting and what not but if I use one cutting will I get one trunk or will it grow into 4 like the braided one I have?

I would assume that I need to prop 4 and then put them together but I thought I would ask before I start the process.

Thanks in advance for the help

Yes, you are correct, you will need to propagate multiple cuttings and then braid them together. You can propagate from stem cuttings and from individual leaves (take the entire petiole).
