Question

How do you root from a bottle brush plant?

Answer 1

take semi ripe cuttings (not the new growth and not the old growth but the still pliable stems), in summer and autumn.  Use free draining compost or potting mix.  They need humidity so cover pot with an upended bag on stakes and seal to pot with string or an elastic band to make your own hot house if you don't have one.  Keep moist.  put in a shaded warm position until they strike, take off the cover and leave in the shade until mature enough to repot into individual pots  and gradually introduce them to the sun when they get going in the pots.
