I have a jasmine vine and would like to root part of it to add in another part of my garden
How to root jasmine vine?
Once the flowering is over in March, trim back the jasmine, and perhaps use this as an opportunity to take the cuttings. The best shoots to choose are those which are neither too "new" or too woody. Cut just under a pair of leaves,m and pinch out the tender tipshoot. Put 2 or 3 cuttings together in a pot with sandy potting soil. Water, cover the pot with a plastic bac, and try to keep the temperature at around 60%F. After 10 - 14 days the new roots should have appeared, the plastic bag can be removed and the pot put in a light and airy spot at about 60 - 65F.
Once the cuttings have grown into small plants they should be replanted in 4-5 inch pots in an airy and nourishing soil. Top the plants out by nipping the tips of the shoots, so that the new plants grow to a more compact, bushy shape. Keep doing this until the beginning of July. Give a well-balanced fertilizer every 14 days until the beginning of September. The young plants can now tolerate lower temperatures (but not below 50%F) If plants must flower around Christmas, keep them at about 60-65F.
Reply:lay a stem down in some moist soil, put some weight on if necessary, keep moist, cut off in 2-3 months and transplant
