The bottoms of the stems have been soaked in water ever since (It's Tuesday night here now). Do I just plant them directly into the soil, or should I wait for them to root? Should I remove all the leaves or not? What else should I do and not do? Thanks. Quote \| Reply \| Report

I just found out the hard way last week with my Passion Fruit vines. :-( Good luck, Robert Quote \| Reply \| Report
