rooting grevillea cuttings

Dear Philip

grevillea alpina can be rooted from juevenile cuttings taken from the base
of the plant during the months of March to May. Use rooting hormone @0.3%-0.8% 
(Such as Rhizopon AA#2 or Rhizopon AA#3)

grevillea rosmarinifolia can be rooted from juevenile cuttings taken from
the base of the plant during the months of March to May. Use rooting hormone
0.8% 
(Such as Rhizopon Rhizopon AA#3).

Since these would be young cuttings also try total immerse a few seconds in
a solution of IBA water soluble at 150-300ppm. 
(Such as Rhizopon AA Water Soluble Tablets at 3-5 tablets per liter water).

Suggest you propagate under mist or certainly totally cover with clear plastic.
Soil temp over 70F.
Should have light.

If you need samples of Rhizopon let me know your snail mail address. 
(Your local distributor can order from V-J Growers Supply 800-327-5422)

I've been trying to propagate several varieties of Grevillea (G. lanigera,
G. alpina among others) from cuttings and have so far had zero success.
Anyone out there have any tips on how to make the cuttings take?
