I had no success growing them the usual way from cuttings. I'd lose them all. I did 3 air layers and they all worked. I am going to do more but this time I will use sphagnum moss and maybe a little root hormone to speed up the process. I am really pleased it worked because I haven't been able to find this particular cultivar again in any of the nurseries I've checked. - So if any of you have a really nice plant that you find hard to propagate the usual way from cuttings then this just may be the way to go -. Might also try it on a couple of old Roses and some of the Brugmansias.
