Depends on what kind of plant it is. For example: plumeria will but roses won't. Ask your local nursery.

This works well for weeping willows, but you can take a branch of the bush, scrape a small patch, place it on the ground, lay a rock on it, and see if it roots. If it roots, cut it from the mother plant and plant in good good soil.

It is doubtful that your petunia will sprout in the soil. But I can vouch for the fact that they will root in a glass of water, then you can pot them up before planting in the garden. It will probably take about 2 weeks to root in the water, then another 2 weeks to grow in a small pot of soil before they are ready to be planted in the ground. Good luck!

Like most others say, some will some won't. I have had some success with multiflora roses, but not with others. I have had a lot of success with raspberries, blackberries, and mulberry trees. Your best bet is to research the plant your wanting to do this with, and maybe talk with a local horticulturalist.

you've gotta be a bit more gentle. are you talking about house plants or outdoor plants. the method varies by type of plant and where it will be planted. contact your local nursery.

Most will, grapes, roses, violets, fruit trees. The key is to keep it moist while it establishes a new root system.

some will. Best results are obtained when you strip off lower leaves, dip in Rootone, place in moist potting soil, place in clear zip type bag, seal. Or, strip off lower leaves, place in clear container of water.

it all depends on the type of plants....some cuttings need established roots.. you have to soak them in water before adding them to dirt.. i have never heard of any plants that you cut to make more do well when sticking in dirt..... my mom always taught me to root them first.. good luck!!!

I have done this many times with roses. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't, but I have grown three new rose bushes this way.
