Default Cuttings of Nemisia and Diascia

Hi,

I seem to have overwintered some "Confetti" Nemisia and "Pink Lady"
Diascia!
They both have long stem growth and I thought I would try to increase
these useful plants.
What is the best way to do it (in a greehouse heated bench)?

Thanks

This is too easy. Both will root in almost any compound, and even
water, in about 3 weeks at this time of year. By April they root in
less than that.

I use a mix of equal parts silver sand and vermiculite, kept moist. Let
me know if you have any difficulties.
