Sowing at the end of April can result in full bloom by July. Watering repeatedly after sowing can reduce the germination rate, so the soil should be watered thoroughly before sowing, and soil and air moisture should be maintained after sowing. The plants can be moved to a greenhouse to overwinter and used as the mother plants for propagation cuttings the following year. Cuttings can be done from April to July under the conditions of an air temperature of 15-20°C, cutting slightly hardened new shoots into cuttings about 6 centimeters long, and inserting them into a greenhouse sandbed or open ground seedbed. After cutting, shade should be provided, and after 2-3 days, they can be slightly exposed to sunlight to promote growth. New roots will emerge in about 15 days, and when seedlings have 5-6 leaves, they can be transplanted, and when they reach 7-8 centimeters tall, they can be planted. After the plants have survived, timely pinching is done to promote branching and flowering.
