This brush trimmer has Choose healthy stems: Select healthy, disease-free stems for cutting. Ideally, these stems should be long and flexible, with no signs of damage or disease. Leave a gap of at least 5cm (2in) between the surface of the fence or wall and the support. This creates a bit of air flow around the plant and also gives you ample finger room for tying and pruning your plant

The best handle design depends on the type of work that you are doing. If you are doing heavy-duty work or performing a job that will take a lot of time, the two-handed type tends to be best. This allows you to have the most control over the tool when you are using it. Clean and sterilize tools: Before taking the cuttings, make sure to clean and sterilize your cutting tools. This prevents the spread of diseases or pests to the new plants. Use a mixture of water and bleach or rubbing alcohol to disinfect the cutting tools.Hold the pruning scissors at a 45-degree angle. Cutting at an angle helps water run off the end and prevents the chances of stem rot. Try not to cut branches straight across, as this can kill the rest of the branch because water will pool on the surface, and it invites pests to burrow into the branches. [3] X Research source

Leaf nodes are the part of a stem where the leaf begins to form from a “parent stem.” Hold your scissors at a 45-degree angle at the node, and make a clean cut all the way across the stem. [9] X Research source Fill a small pot or container with a well-draining potting mix. Make a hole in the soil using a pencil or your finger, and insert the cutting into the hole. Gently press the soil around the stem to secure it in place. It's best to plant multiple cuttings together to increase the chances of success. Softwood and semi-ripe cuttings: Best for evergreen shrubs. Take softwood and semi-ripe cuttings from spring to summer. For best chance of success, choose stems that have their leaf nodes close together and keep the stem between 10-15 cm (4-6in).
