Usually grown from cuttings of firm wood under cover.

Podophyllum (May-Apple, Mandrake; erroneously Duck’s Foot) Berberideæ.

Seeds and division.

Poinciana. Leguminosæ.

Propagation by seeds.

Poinsettia, Euphorbia. Euphorbiaceæ

Cuttings of growing shoots, of two or three buds each, handled upon a cutting bench or in a frame. Many propagators prefer to let the cuttings lie exposed two or three days before setting them. Cuttings of ripened wood can be used to good advantage where the heat is rather low. See [Euphorbia].
