Passiflora cuttings root best in the spring when they are in growth mode; 2. Some types are easier to root than others; 3. Some types will root in jars of water; some will rot in jars of water; 3. Humidity is essential to the rooting process so a plastic bag or humidity dome should be used to keep the leaves green; 4. Oasis cubes on a tray of moist pebbles with a humidity dome worked best for me; and 5. A good rooting hormone helps quite a bit. This is how I rooted mine in the picture below. I put this tray of cuttings in a large zippered plastic bag like the kind you get when you buy a blanket or a comforter. I hope this helps! |
