I air-layered this once. Took about 4 months and I got a scrawny little plant. Since then, I have tried air-layering several times w/o success. Someone on GW said 6" cutting in midsummer should work, but it didn't for me. I did try it in a propagation chamber in the spring and oddly enough, everything else in the propagation died but the seminole. It rooted and unfortunately, I forgot all about it and it died. I took 4" cuttings and put it in a 3 inch pot of moist soil. I put the pot in a plastic shoebox and covered it. After about a month, it rooted and like I said, I got busy with other stuff and it died. It is known to be a difficult plant to root. Probably a misting system would work best.

I started a cutting by sticking it in soil. So far it is still alive. I tried another in water and that didn't work. The one is soil i hanging in there, so I'm holding out hope.

I have rooted them in perlite - I used about 12 inch stem lengths, with the cut end dipped in rooting hormone, most of the leaves removed and placed into damp perlite and kept moist and in the shade. Only about 10% of the stems root though, it is not an easy plant to root.I think it is more successful in the spring or summer.

How long should they bloom.Mine doesnt do enough to get me to want another.
