need help on "rooting" a plant in water
I'm in Cleveland, Ohio. I have a new Japanese Honeysuckle the was planted
outdoors last May. About 3 to 4 weeks ago, when the weather was starting to get below freezing, I decided to cut a couple of branches off and try to "root" them in a glass of water. I read you leave some leaves on, but they fell off within a week. I tried to slice the bottom of the stem segments, which is where I figured the roots would start. What I have after 3 weeks, is some kind of growth coming out the pieces of branch, perhaps where the leaves were (?). I see nothing coming out of the bottom that looks "rootish". Can I somehow use these growths to start new plants? I want to grow then indoors, by a sunny window, at least for the time being (winter). If I can use them, how do I plant them? Here are two pics of them I took about 5 days ago, the growths still look healthy, but I don't want to wait too long if now is the right time to plant them. Or should I wait yet? http://www.geocities.com/dannykewl3/hs1.jpg http://www.geocities.com/dannykewl3/hs2.jpg Thanks much in advance for any advice, as I never really worked with plants much. |
