How to Propagate Shining Karamu?
(Coprosma lucida)
Shining Karamu, also known as Shining Karamu
A versatile and attractive shrub, shining Karamu thrives through cutting-based propagation. For successful rooting, semi-hardwood cuttings are optimal, taken from healthy mature plants. The cuttings should have a few leaves and be dipped in a rooting hormone before planting in well-draining soil mix. Consistent moisture and warmth encourage root development, but be mindful of overwatering. Cover with a plastic dome or use a propagation mat for added humidity and temperature control, facilitating robust root growth.
