Omg I bought and promptly loss a purple passion recently too. Couldn’t save the props. Best of luck to you!

The worst! sorry for your heartbreak too!

I’ve got 9 that survived from maybe 15 in the kitchen and 5 of 10ish setting up in the loft!

I found the trick so far is larger cuttings with a couple of nodes right into soil , not too much water to drown and soak them to death . They don’t root for me in water propagation at all!
