I was able to get 2 cuttings to root in water (~3 weeks), and potted them in Dr.Earth's Pot of Gold mix.
Also have 5 other cuttings in water that should put out roots in the next week or two. Smiling

Thanks @GaNinFl Smiling

The banners (by everyone) have really been instrumental (for me) in discovering new plants, new friends,
& improving the photographic eye.

I'm being much more alert & observant about the plants in our garden, too.
In other words, gardening has become much more fun & rewarding since I joined the community at NGA.
Thank you all! Thumbs up
