Can anyone provide directions on how to propagate trumpet vine? I am
fairly new to gardening and don't have much background knowledge on
the subject. We'd like to take cuttings from our neighbors vine,
clone it, and plant 10 - 15 starts at the base of our chain-link
fence. We'd like to cover the fence as quickly as possible. Thanks!

I've had real good luck just taking this years growth & laying it on
the ground with a rock on it. Next year it has rooted & I snip it
from the mother.

You could do the same with pots I suppose--- or try air layering,
though it doesn't look so pretty. [when the kids were in pampers I
used 1/4 of a pamper to air layer some plants.
