Serissa cuttings root very promiscuously
Here is the setup for some serissa cuttings that I had on a serissa which I bought from ebay. It's only been two weeks and they seem to be rooting very very well, even the "branches" on these cuttings are getting aereal roots!
Check the roots starting to appear in the "branches" second picture, and pointed with red arrows.
What I did:
1. Cut the branches from my serissa (they are about 3/8" diameter)
2. Dipped them in water
3. Dipped them in rooting hormone
3. Put sphagnum moss in 35 mm film plastic container
4. Put each cutting independently in a 35mm film container
5. Put these containers inside larger container with water level enough to cover 1/2" of the 35mm containers
6. Cover with transparent cover, to keep the moisture
7. Mist once almost every day
