I did wax begonia cuttings this year.. they worked really easy. I always take my cuttings after a rain. For some lame reason I have better luck with any cutting then.

I use the powdered root hormone and just keep them watered for a few days and gradually back off on them unless they look wilted.

Had great luck wit coleus cuttings this year

I was also able to get an endless summer blue hydrangea well rooted and ready for transplant!

But anyway, heres the mix of cuttings, begonias included.

What I have trouble with is doing impatiens cuttings and vinca...OY! Must be something in the water!
