Hibiscus
Copper plants
Plumeria
Ti plants
Dracena marginata
Crown of Thorns
Kalanchoe blossfeldiana
Lots of different succulents, especially jades

All were rooted in soil or suitable potting mix (gritty) that works for me.

I've utterly failed at rooting Poinsettias, tho I see others do this all the time! I have yet to get a Thanksgiving Cactus to root. Again, others to it.

I have a beautiful, colorful curly leaf croton that I am going to try to propagate. Wish me luck! LOL

Does your Vietnamese gardenia grow in the ground? Nematodes have gotten all gardenia plants for me. I can only grow grafted plants in Cape Coral.

Thanks! I was hoping it was a resistant variety, but I guess I knew better. Growing in pots is not a bad thing, tho. Love having them around the lanai.

My little tiny yard is too full of plants because I can't stop rooting the cuttings that I prune off. These are kinda easy:

Tibuchinia - the regular kind and the grandifolias (and the ground cover will just root in mid-air!)

Gardenias

Plumeria and P. pudica

Milkweed

Roses

Begonias and Angelonia and Pentas

Tomatoes

Bouganvilleas

Firespike

Justicia

Red Cloak

Honeysuckle

Vanilla Orchid

Stephanotis (no, I meant to type Stromanthe)

Angel's Trumpet

Cuphea

Blue Ginger

and sometimes I can get Rainbells to root.

It's too late to go out and look, but I'm sure there are more I am forgetting!

I don't root in water. the roots that form are called "water roots" and will die off when you put them in soil. That being said I did root some triangular fig in water.

I root so many things that I can't name them all. Some things that I have rooted recently that you wouldn't think you could do...gasteria by leaf. It take awhile but does work. Same with sansieveria (I grow some uncommon ones). I used to root roses by the dozen. Rooting plants is so fun and rewarding!

Susie, how do you get stephaniotis to root? I've tried a couple of ways but with no luck!

I mostly root Crotons and the various Aralias. But everything works best in the mistbed: click here for pictures and instructions to build one.

Oh man I did not know so many things could root! I have only rooted coleus plants, but I have a few plants that were mentioned above so I'll see about trying some of them soon!

I never bother with rooting hormones but I think I will buy some just to give an edge on success.

Hi Oldman

I apologize for taking so long to reply, because I couldn't figure out why I put "Stephanotis" on my list. So when I got a chance to go outside today, I looked at my plant to see what's up with it....and that's when I remembered the "Stromanthe" plant nearby. I got those two names mixed up.

Anyways, have you ever air-layered your Stephanotis? That's how I get the Stromanthe to root at the stems that produce little babies. They never rooted if I cut them off, but they do if they're stuck in the dirt while still attached to the mom. So I am going to try that with my Stephanotis this spring where I see little roots forming along the vines. (Although, I don't really need another stephanotis plant and the one I have is not likely to survive our cold winter cuz I'm not dragging it in again this year.)

So sorry about putting the wrong name on here. But I do hope you'll have success and will write and tell us all about it.

Susie

No problem! Thanks Susie. I've tried a couple cuttings - once in moist spaghnum and once in potting mix - but they eventually die without starting roots. The one in spaghnum lasted almost a month before it gave up. I've been avioding air-layering because I've never tried it - it makes me nervous for some reason. This spring I'll give it a try in the dirt and in spaghnum and see how it goes! Thanks for the encouragement!
