Hi Bill,

This is good for hibiscus too right? And Lavendar?

I'm curious will it work for Weigelia too? Hope I spelled that right.

Air layering is an effective method for propagating Hibiscus and Weigela, but softwood cuttings work quicker for Lavender.

Thankyou bill. I have two weigela cuttings that haven't died yet and if they survive I would love to be able to make more. They are such a great looking plant. I have the varigata.

Tammy, I was also able to just put hibiscus in water and it is putting out roots for me. Jimmy said he has trouble with it though.

I have not tried air layering with mine yet.

I wonder if it's the difference in heat between Texas and Washington that is part of the problem?

Maybe so, but I am sure Jimmy is doing his inside like I am. I will be transplating mine this week to soil and will take pics when I do.
