This was completely by accident. I take cuttings every now and then from some of my plants and bring them inside in put in a wide-mouth flower vase. The basil's in bloom are especially nice, and so are the mints. Mostly I take the ones that need to be cut back and ones I will use inside to cook with or whatever.

Today, I noticed that the cinnamon basil ones had roots growing from them, as did my greek basil.

I took the cinnamon basil and used some root hormone powder and stuck them in the pot with the rest of the cinnamon basil. Not sure about the greek basil. Thinking of keeping it indoors in a pot. The root systems are very well developed.

Anyone else ever rooted using just a plain water as a planting medium?
