Ok, first off I would like to say hello to everyone!

Then for the question, I got 3 Ti logs not that long ago, I had kinda forgot about them and have lost the directions on how to grow them. I put them in a cup of water and kept them in water but have forgotten when and how to plant them in soil. If anyone out there could help me out I would greatly appreciate it!

Hi Shakeyj111. The Plant File at the following link has several suggestions at the bottom of the page

The following link has good detailed information about your plant, but it is my understanding that your should be pretty easy to grow.

thanks for your reply, I had read that but am still confused.
Do you keep them in the water until they grow roots then put them in the dirt, how deep do you plant them in the dirt?

sorry for the fact I must be alittle dingy with this!

shakeyj11,
Try this site:

http://www.floridata.com/ref/C/cord_fru.cfm

It has an explanation of how to root it and what to do with it once it's rooted.

There's a little more info on rooting at:

Hope this helps.

well if what I read I guess I have done killed them and what I read thats pretty much impossible, I guess I'll just stick to being the old fart on the mower!

I have had them in a glass with water for a few weeks and they never sprouted roots, so I guess they're not going to, to bad I thought they were a beautiful plant once they're grown with red leaves and all.

Thank you to all who have replied, I do appreciate it!
