new coral vines

This is my first message on Dave's Garden, so Hello to all! Does anyone know how to propagate coral vine, or what we call Rosa Montana? Thanks

Hello Pinky!

Welcome to Dave's! You are my neighbor. I also live in Poplarville.

I'll send you a private PM about this.

In answer to your question, harvest fresh seeds from the plant as soon as they dry on the vine. Place seeds fat side down with just a tiny bit of the point sticking up, in a pot of good soil. Water well and put in the shade. Keep watered but not soaking wet. Then just wait. I don't remember how long they take to germinate, but don't seem to recall having any problems with them.
