What plant material to use
Propagate from seed or a healthy erect shoot tip. Use the tip rather than a side branch. Do not use leaves or branch pieces.
How to propagate this plant
Propagate by sowing seed or rooting an erect terminal shoot tip. These routes are commercial and not practical for most indoor growers.
Keep an attempt warm, bright, and well drained in a Norfolk Island pine setting. For an indoor plant, use the cooler, bright-room context. Outdoor tree conditions are different.
