this is exactly the video i needed. I chopped up my moms 30 year old umbrella tree and was worried she wont get another plant from it if my propagation failed LOL. I took MANY cuttings so this gives me hope that at the very least one will root and we can get a plant from it
This is amazing. Virtually all the videos out there show using 5+ nodes, but the results with the single node segment are amazing. Almost feels counterintuitive that the smaller segments are more robust than the large stems. This is perfect since I prefer methods that don't cut off so many leaves. I can really go a long way with my dwarf umbrella using that technique. I wanna try this with other plants now! I have 3 dwarf umbrellas atm, and I'd like to prune them to get branching like yours. Now I know how simple it is to propagate this lovely plant! 🍵✨️🙏
Ours is about the same - it has survived 3 kids and 2 grandsons digging in it's dirt, pulling its leaves off, etc., but it needs to be cut back. This video gave me courage and knowledge to give it a go!
Thank you, that was the best gardening video I’ve ever seen! The music was great too. And the mosquito bits, I’ve never heard of them for those darn gnats. Can’t wait to try them! Thanks again, so very very much. 💚
There's a Schefflera at my work that I just love. The leaves are so beautifully shaped. I really want to take a cutting home with me to try and grow my own, but the plant only has a single stalk. My boss has a couple of the leaves that have sprouted and I took a couple home, too, but I think in order to get what I want, I need a stem cutting. Would this work if I cut the very end of the plant (maybe 3 nubs in)? Do the cuttings need to be at least a certain length for success? The original plant is technically not mine so I can cut it down too much.
You should get a stem cutting and not just the leaves in order to get a high rate of success in rooting. In the video I used a short ang long stem and they are rooted. Just use at least more than 1 cutting so if the other one fail you still have the others.
So it looks like the water one had the best root growth. Interesting. I have a schefflera bonsai that is coming due for a reduction and I will use these techniques to propogate the cuttings.
❤❤❤❤YES AND THE GOOD THING ABOUT WATER IS THAT YOU CONTROL IT. IT CAN BE FIJI IT CAN BE WELL WATER IT CAN BE DEER PARK OR DASANI SO ON AND SO FORTH THE PURER THE WATER THE BETTER ROOT RESULTS💋💯
Sara Domun, bonjour, malgré tout vos conseils,je vous ai suivi étape par étape pour réussir au moins une bouture de scheflera, malheureusement, les feuilles sont devenues noires et les tiges ramolit Et la mère plante a noircit là où je l'ai coupé et plus bas un petit bourgeon tout qui est apparu, je suis vraiment désespérée,
I have a large plant my husband received as a gift many years ago. It is so large for our tiny home. I want to try to get it smaller but the stem is woody. How far down can you cut it?
I don’t have preferred time because i’m propagating indoor with controlled environment. But, you can better propagate during the beginning of summer time.

Quite often it's because the plant can't support so many leafs while having no roots. It spends all it's energy trying to stay alive. Removing excess leafs allows the plant to develop a root system to support new top growth.
