Is Thunbergia easy to grow?
The most popular and easy-to-grow thunbergia is Thunbergia alata, known as black-eyed Susan for its yellow or orange petals and contrasting brown or black centre. Black-eyed Susan (Thunbergia alata) will grow in any garden soil but prefers fertile, well-drained soil, in full sun. Choose a spot where it will have some support, such as close to a wall or trellis, or where it can scramble into a well-established shrub.
How to take Thunbergia cuttings?
Cut off the leaves at the bottom of the cutting, leaving a very small amount of leaf joint; leave one set of leaves at the top of the cutting as they are. Trim the very bottom of the cutting stem at a 45-degree angle, and lightly damage this part of the root by scraping with scissors to encourage new growth. Rooting in soil Make an indentation with your finger a few inches deep. Place the cutting into the indentation you’ve made and add more soil to fill the top of the pot. Tamp down the dirt around the cuttings so they’re secure. Give your cuttings a thorough drink of water until the soil is evenly moist.All you need to do is mix one spoon of baking soda, one spoon of white sugar, one cap of white vinegar and 500 ml of clean water, stir well, seal the container, and let it ferment for three days to create your own natural rooting solution at home. After that, just pour it directly into the soil in the pot.
