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.
The golden rule: Do to others only that which you would have done to you.

The best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago. The 2nd best time is now. (-Unknown)

Try to be more valuable than a bad example.
