Hi All,
I am trying to get another Choke Berry (not cherry) to grow
by transferring a clipping from another plant. This is
supposedly how these plants are propagated.
I have been using this rooting compound:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1
And it does not seem to work. Three failure so far.
Am I using the wrong stuff?
Cut, dip, make hole and pour some down the hole too,
stick in hole. Did I miss something?
Many thanks,

There are lots of woody plants grown in my area (WNC). Try this old nurserymans' trick. Cut the stem at a sharp angle, stick into a small potato and then proceed as already noted above. The potato maintains constant moisture.

Very Sneaky!!! If this attempt (#3) fails, I will
try the potato trick.
