My opinion is, if they're fairly fresh cuttings, they should root indoors over winter. They'll just take longer than in summer. I wouldn't leave cuttings outdoors when temps are cool. If you have a warm spot in your house (water heater, top of refridge.), I'd put them there. Make sure not to overwater. Sometimes I use a baggie to put over cuttings to help hold in humidity, but keeping the soil just barely moist.

well since I didn't take them I am not sure how fresh they are. So basically, the fresher they are the quicker they root? Oh well, I've got all winter for them to root so hopefully it'll work.

I will bring them in and put them by the window where it is pretty warm. Hopefully that will help.

Thanks Dave.

I bought my 10 inch cutting in January 2004 from a rack at the airport in Maui. Stuck it in a pot when I got home and placed it in a south facing window next to a radiator. Initially I misted the soil and then not again until the soil was dry. I had no clue what I was doing and just followed the instructions on the packaging. I can't remember if I cut the end before planting, but I did not use any rooting hormone. Come spring, the tip turned green and the rest is history. I now have a 4 foot tall branching and flowering tree.

Great Dpolson, that gives me hope! Thanks!
