Carol, I like to root my brug cuttings in water before potting them. I've had more dependable results that way. They put out new roots in water in about a week, and keep more leaves alive, too. The more cuttings that are in one container, the quicker they root (the stems secrete natural rooting hormones, so I'm told). These are just over a week in water and I'm potting them up on the weekend.

btw, I'd take them indoors tonight, it's going to get chilly!
