                        Cultivation and Propagation
                        
                            Pilosella corymbulifera is a perennial herb that can be grown from seed or cuttings. It prefers full sun and well-drained soil. Propagation from cuttings is the best method, as it will produce a more vigorous plant. To propagate from cuttings, take a 4-6 inch cutting from a healthy plant and place it in a pot filled with moist potting soil. Keep the soil moist and in a warm location until the cutting has rooted. Once the cutting has rooted, it can be transplanted into a larger pot or into the garden.
