Sambac cuttings

20 years ago

I took a lot of cuttings from my sambacs late summer. I rooted them in water and then potted about 4 cuttings per 3 or 3.5" pot. I have 2 pots. The first pot I had made, grew new leaves very quickly but since that initial new growth (consisting of one stem and few leaves per stem) it has not grown a bit in the last few weeks.

The second pot has not grown a single new leaf or stem. Both are still very green and very alive and I try to keep the pots (plastic) evenly moist at all times since they are newly rooted cuttings.

Can someone explain why it is growing so slowly? My own sambacs grow quite fast. Are these concentrating on their roots at the moment? They are kept close to the parent plants, which seem to be perfectly content and constantly with flowers. So I don't think it's the fall temps as such.
