The message
from Green Earth contains these words:

Has anybody successfully grown a Chilean Fire Bush from cuttings?

if yes, how?

I recently asked the same question to the head propagator at a NT
garden, who said he's often tried to but never succeeded (and he has
plenty of fresh material to hand).

Janet.

Small scale propagation is by suckers, but you can do nodal cuttings of the
currant years growth in June in a mist unit. Its not considered easy!
