Detailed explanation-1: -The most widely practiced method of taking a leaf cutting is to snip off a healthy leaf, complete with a short piece of stem. The end of the leaf cutting is then dipped in a rooting hormone and the stalk is stuck in to a moist propagation media. Bottom heat of about 75 degrees F should be provided if possible.
Detailed explanation-2: -Examples of plants that can be propagated from root cuttings include raspberry, blackberry, rose, trumpet vine, phlox, crabapple, fig, lilac, and sumac. Plants with large roots are normally propagated outdoors. The root cuttings should be 2 to 6 inches long.
Detailed explanation-3: -Identify the location where you will snip your cutting from the main plant. Carefully cut just below the node with a clean sharp knife or scissors. Place the cutting in a clean glass. Change out the water every 3-5 days with fresh room temperature water. Wait and watch as your roots grow! More items
