Propagating draksonia antartica

rockdrummer4 · 2021-05-02 18:13:59

Heya, looking to propagate this? I have one for around 8-10 years, how can i propagate from this. Read you can propagate from either spores on the leaves (not sure if mine will have spores) or from offshoots on the trunk (again. It sure if I’ve seen offshoots b4) See pic from last June (2020) below

You can propagate from spores but it's a slow business. Have a Google for the specifics - and there are several specific requirements regarding humidity, temperature etc.
