Hi everyone! Just wondering if anyone has tips on how to propagate a ‘bubblegum’ transcendia. I watched a couple videos which say to place it in the soil (not water), but it doesn’t seem to be working. Any tips would be appreciated!!

Mine grows roots in just water in less than a week

I’ve done both water and soil, but agree that soil was more successful.

I’ve never done soil but I kid you not, I leave the nodes in water they grown roots in 1 week then I transfer directly into soil and I’ve never had any issues. I accidentally broke a really long stem and in an attempt to save it I ended up with 8 nodes and all are babies are thriving

I've always used water with Dyna gro foliage pro fertilizer to propagate my fantasy Venice. Change water once per week. I'll leave in a vase or transplant in soil once there's a few inches on roots.

update: thank you everyone, the roots grew!! :) I bottom watered the soil until i could feel a bit of dampness about 1/2 inch down in the water and kept in the sun as much as possible
