I take some cuttings and put them in water.
They grow fast--and get straggly looking, so I take tip cuttings again
and put them in water...etc...etc...
In the end--all you want is a few of the tip cuttings to plant in a combo container.

I imagine you could start a regular HB of WJ and grow it outside.
They DO thrive outside. The more light they get--the more intense
the color gets. They just don;t do well indoors...

Been trying to find a full-length picture where you can see the pot of
Mandevilla AND the WJ in it. This is the best I can fin...July of last year.
I stick about 4 cuttings around the pot's edge--and it takes off.
It will become a mass of WJ--all the way to the ground.
