Dee, the first cutting I took, I stuck it in a pot of potting soil and it looked pitiful. I felt soory for it and tied it up on a stick. But i kept watering it everyday. Finaly it started looking perkier day by day. Now it is a pretty little plant. I was so impatient for it to fork or Y as they call it here I pinched out the top.
It makes them so pretty and tree-like. Just got to be patient and let it do it, itself. I'm not great on being patient either. But it sounds like you did o.k.,at least you didn't THROW them away. I have another picture for you. We can watch my baby bloming and share the joy, how about that? Now, I thought this was an orange plant, but durn, if it doesn't look yellow to me. I don't care I just want to see it bloom.
