Lover of all plants! I really enjoy starting seeds or propagating from items I purchase at the grocery store. Orchids and Hoyas are my favorite plant

@emch I am using root hormone. I've done this once before and it took forever to get them to root. So I think patience regua

@emch and regular water changes is key. Oh and cut the end under water about a half inch from node then splice it while under water. This is the technique I use lastime successfully...good luck
