Q:  What is the BEST way to root a cutting?

A:  Cut the stems in morning and keep them in water until you stick them in pot.  Use a rooting powder to stimulate root growth, keeping them in full light in a moist and humid environment.  In the summertime, keep the cutting on the north side of the house.  Make sure you use a good potting medium: a sterile mix in a pot that holds moisture and drains well.  Keep the potting area clean to avoid diseases and pests.  After rooting, add low concentration of 20-20-20 fertilizer when repotting.
