azalea and cannas

16 years ago

I AM WONDERING HOW TO GROW MY AZALEA CLIPPINGS (WITHOUT ROOTS). I WAS TOLD TO USE ROOT STARTER AND WATER. I JUST DONT KNOW HOW LONG TO LEAVE THEM IN THE WATER FOR. AND I JUST SEPERATED SOME CANNAS TO SPREAD THEM OUT AND NOW THEY ARE TURNING BROWN AND FALLING OVER. WHAT DO I DO!! I AM DESPERATE, I LOVE MY CANNAS. I GREW THEM FROM BULBS THIS YEAR AND THEY REALLY DID WELL. I WOULD HATE TO SEE THEM DIE NOW. IS THERE ANYTHING I CAN DO TO SAVE THEM... PLEASE HELP!!!!

You can root azalea cuttings pretty much like any other plants. Use cuttings of this year's wood. Just put "azaleas from cuttings" in your browser and you will find all the info needed.
