mosquito plant

12 years ago

I have a mosquito/citronella plant that I would like to take cuttings and start a few more .I took a couple of cuttings and put them in water about a month and a half now and still no roots growing.Is there another way or can they be propagated that way?

Hello...I have one too...I've tried in various mediums; water & perlite & dirt...but still cannot get cuttings to grown ...which for me has become a challenge. Mine is a geranium which should be easy to get growing...but it's just not...would be interested to see what we can learn!
