Oh, Homalomena occulta! If you’ve ever admired those gorgeous, glossy leaves and that elegant, arching habit, you’re not alone. It’s a truly special plant, and the joy of successfully coaxing a new one into life from a piece of your existing treasure? Pure gardening bliss. Now, you might be wondering if this beauty is a tough nut to crack when it comes to propagation. Honestly, I’ve found Homalomena occulta to be quite forgiving, even for those of you just starting out on your propagation journey. You’ve got this!
The Best Time to Start
My favorite time to get hands-on with Homalomena occulta for propagation is during its active growing season. This generally means late spring through summer. During these warmer months, the plant is full of energy and ready to put on a growth spurt, making it much more likely for your cuttings or divisions to root successfully. You’ll see faster results, too!
