I have 2 plants in my garden that I would really like to take cuttings of and was hoping someone that had success with starting these could walk me through it.

Ice Plant Delosperma floribundum

Hi Donna.

The ice plant is easy. Just take piece s of it and make sure you have a nod e or two and you can put it in a small glas s of water and put in a kitchen window that sunny and it will root, or you can take piece s of them and put them in pots and keep moist but not to soakign wet.

ice plant is usually pretty easy to root. Take s several weeks though for them to get their roots.

Can't help ya on the Cranes Bill becaus e I have nevr grown that plant before. In fact not sure I have ever seen it. Hopefully somebody else will be able to help you out with that one.

The Geraniums are usually grown from seed (that I know of) but you might ask in the Geranium forum too:
