can't figure out how to post multiple photos...so here is the second one these were both started from super small cuttings as an experiment.

Looking good Merkity. I have a room full of cuttings I will be shipping to good homes. I usually keep one from each cloned variety in case the original dies.

ha - found the original posts i did of these cuttings in feb last year. - tried to link it below. not bad, it looks like it took about a year and a half for the cuttings to really look and feel quite viable. I am starting to train then outside for the summer and get them used to the weather around here. I think this year i am going to try and start a bunch more cuttings. I would like duplicates of my plants in case of die off, some of them are over 10 years and have been potted and not well treated the entire time.

Here is a link that might be useful: winter experiment
