The invention discloses a water planting cutting propagation method for myrtus communis. The method includes the steps of collecting and treating a cutting slip, preparing a nutrient solution, preparing a cuttage container, conducting water planting cultivation, conducing management after cuttage and conducting acclimatization and transplant. The method includes the specific steps that a semi-lignified myrtus communis tender branch is selected, and then is inserted in the cuttage container filled with the nutrient solution for water planting cultivation after being subjected to trimming treatment, the culture condition is controlled, the acclimatization and transplant are conducted after the cutting slip growing into a young root is obtained, and accordingly a myrtus communis nursery stock is obtained. By the adoption of the method, female plants can be accumulated, so that mass micropropagation is condcuted. Meanwhile, the problem that cuttage seasons are limited by time is solved, cutting propagation can be carried out all the year around, the culture period is short, rooting is fast, environment controllability is good, the culture condition is stable, and the survival rate of cutting slips can reach 93%. The method is suitable for mass production and can be widely popularized, and good economic benefits, social benefits and ecological benefits are achieved.
