These are different Coleus leaves from the one shown above, making tiny new plants. This took about a month:
Lantana (after about 3 weeks):
Gardenia (lost track of 2 batches that got meshed together, probably about 6 weeks):
How did those cuttings do, Sherry? The Gardenia above is woody. Kinda new to messing with Gardenia. The green cuttings had a higher initial mortality rate but I did put a successful one in the yard a few days ago. It had much more advanced roots than the one in the pic. And then it rained - very cool!
Clint, I snipped a handful of Hydrangea pieces about 6 weeks ago and put in water. A few didn't make it but the rest are still green but no sign of roots yet. Do yours usually take a while? How big? Most of these are 3-4 nodes with the bottom one in water, middle 2 stripped. I think it would have worked quicker if I had done it earlier in the year. As long as they're still green I never give up.
Freescaping the yard takes longer but is more fun, IMO.
