RE: Success!!!!!

Good for you! I've always wanted to try doing more cuttings than just
geraniums and succulents, I'll have to copy your method.

You gotta see this!  It worked!  
I finally got up the nerve to check my cuttings. 5 weeks in the clear
box outside in a 1:1 mix of moistened perlite and vermiculite. 100%
success on Deutzia 'Mont Rose' and Weigela ' Bristol Ruby'! OK, I know
they are easy, but this is the best i've ever done even with them. I
also did a few of Rose of Sharon 'Blue Satin', Hydrangea serrata
'Bluebird', and Syringa tribida 'Josee'. I had already potted up the
Josees, which had only about 30% success when I decided to take
pictures.

I'm just so tickled! Some of the others might have done better if I'd
taken the cuttings earlier; I did it about July 1. But I'm feelin good,
maybe next year I'll start earlier...with more boxes...on more
shrubs....you can't stop me now!!!!!!
