Default [IBC] Loengestromia cuttings

HI
does anyone know how reacts for rooting Loengestromia

cuttings? and
the best season and soil for it'
Thanks
Theo

I assume you mean Lagerstroemia, as in Crape Myrtle. Softwood
cuttings (taken in mid spring) root well. Hardwood cuttings root
if a rooting hormone is applied -- spring-early summer. I use
bonsai soil.
