Okay. I sold my house and I want some of the plants to come along with me from cuttings. There is confederate Jasmine all along my fence which we love and it’s so vigorous that there is plenty to thin out. I have tried cutting and putting the cut end into water to encourage rooting and this did not work. Also, we cut and dipped the cut edge in some root-all before putting in potting soil and the cuttings are dying. If you could help me out, that would be great! Thanks in advance!
…Propagate from stem cutting?

I took two cuttings (around july 10th or so) from a 6 year old jade plant that is doing well and dipped them in rooting hormone and left them out to callous for three or four days. Then I placed them into a Cactus and Soil mix directly out of the bag and placed in a bright but sun-less window. Two weeks in I sprayed the top of the soil a few times of each one and one of them rotted from the cut on up within a week. The other one has been in the soil for over a month now and no sign of roots, meanwhile the cutting is slowly shriveling up. I feel like it needs a small amount of moisture, but I am afraid it will rot. any ideas? I really want this cutting to survive as it has a striking stem and branch shape.
will the plant be able to absorb any water with no (visible) roots?

dar asked:
1) where do I cut on the plant – do I cut multiple places
2) I think I put them in some water to get their roots started — right? for how long?
3) do I then just put the cuttings (with their new roots) into another planter with soil/fertilizer/water?
THANK you!
