I put my cuttings in pots with a plasticbag over it,if they have big leaves I cut them in half so that they don,t loose too much moisture,after a couple of weeks check for new growth or gentle pull on the cutting and you can feel if they have rootet.I use this method for fuchsias,geraniums,hibiscus,plumbago,Datura and more. ![[kitty]](im/graemlins/kitty.gif)
Good luck to you* * * *
Even winters coldest day can't keep the hope of spring away

Hi Hinda,
I am a major chicken when it comes to cuttings. So I usually wait to see. They either dry up and die like a cut flower would or they get new growth. I does take a long time. I'm usually sure I have failed and just as I am giving up it will pop up with some new growth to give me hope.
I haven't grown the same things you are trying so I don't have any specific advise.
