I've heard it can take months

Mine grew roots in a month because I put it with pothos cuttings which release natural rooting hormone. Try that!

Seconded. Or tradescantia if you have that. Basically any fast growing vine plant, I think. Otherwise they can take months. And then even longer for a pup to form

Mine took about 3 months to start growing roots in soil

Mine took months in water. 3-4? And then once potted another 6 to make new plants.
