Both the red and green jade vines are extremely difficult to root. I know a nurseryman who successfully airlayers them, which is supposedly the only way to do it, but I know more who have tried and failed (including yours truly).

Toba, I rooted mine in sandy soil..(Cactus is fine) It took a while to root though..I left cutting out overnight, then placed in soil..If you'd feed safer using root tone, then do so..You want the soil to dry between waterings..don't keep is soaked..It's also a slow-grower, even in a south window and summer outdoors..In winter I keep plant in cool room.

Hi Toba, I have rooted redjade vine from stem cuttings. The sucess rate has varied each time but I do get some to root. The best success seemed to come from straight stems with close nodes that were hardened off but not woody, about 9 month old stems I'd guess. I rooted them in sterile potting soil,with rootone in a shade bench in Kula Hawaii where it tends to be a bit cooler than in Kihei where I am now. It has been harder since I came down here. I also lost the mother plant when its owner was over its massive growth and few blooms. Now I take cuttings from one of the potted vines that I kept and they have been more reluctant to root. I did a full tray last week and have lost half already but I believe that was due to too much shade and they stayed too wet. Here I have to lift up the shade cloth in the summer when the sun gets directly overhead and lower it in the winter when the sun is more at an angle. Hope that helps some.

Thanks for the info y'all.
