I cut the branches from the 'mother' plant in late October (before a hard freeze), so they were probably in the bucket of water 10-11 weeks before I planted them last weekend. They had lots of roots by the end of December, but it wasn't until January 25 that I got around to planting them.

My basement is cooler than the remainder of the house, but warms up during the day when the sun shines in - as you can see, I have full windows all around (deep window-wells).
