Indoor cissus vine is an unpretentious indoor plant that is successfully cultivated in the middle zone. It  grows in the tropics and subtropics around the world.

How to grow

Cissus grows very quickly; it can lengthen by two meters in a season. It climbs along supports thanks to special antennae.

Extremely unpretentious: tolerates light, shadow, and temperature changes.

Domestic species need bright and diffused light, but can also tolerate shade.

In summer, the liana feels good at room temperature, and in winter at +18 degrees.

Try to water the vine abundantly, but make sure that the substrate dries out in time.

How to root a cissus cutting

The plant can be rooted simply in water or soil, planting 3-4 cuttings in one small pot.

To root cissus, you need a cool room temperature of 18 to 22 degrees.

You won’t be able to make mistakes during rooting if you leave at least two buds on the cuttings.

How to water cissus

Watering the cissus should be plentiful and regular.

A regime of 2 waterings per week is suitable, and the top layer of soil should have time to dry out.

Both excess moisture and drought will have a very negative impact on the health of the plant.
