A neighbor gave me a few brenches of trumpet vine. I put them into a container that holds water. What else must I do so that they will grow some roots? Thanks
Trumpet vine cuttings. Do they grow when I put them in water for a while?
My trumpet vine roots itself anywhere a vine lands on the soil. I dont think you need to work to get it to root. Try some in rooting hormone and pot them.
Reply:Root cuttings of dormant trumpet creepers have the best chance of survival. Semi-ripe cuttings in summer can be rooted but do not always overwinter well in colder climates.
Plant your cuttings right away or store in a clear plastic bag in the refrigerator for up to a couple of days. Its best to take cuttings in the early morning when they are full of moisture. A semi-ripe cutting is taken from new growth that has not yet hardened and become woody. Remove any side shoots from the cutting. Make a shallow cut on one side of the cutting base to help stimulate rooting. Use a rooting hormone. Place cuttings in a rooting medium outdoors. Water them well and keep them humid until rooted.
