Before rooting it in sand or a sterile medium, dust the cutting with a rooting compound. During the two or three week period, when you are waiting for new roots to develop, keep the plant well misted. Make sure it is kept in à partially shaded, warm place. Once the roots have become well established, Mr, Hughes suggests placing the cuttings in small pots, using a good general potting soil plus some extra organic material. Increase Increase the pot size when necessary. When the new growth is about two inches high, you may wish to spread the plant out.
