leaf cuttings -- try try again


I think my first try at propagating primulas from leaf cuttings has failed.
It's been over a month since the cuttings died away or rotted away, and I
don't see any new plants.

I'm going to try again this week, before the summer goes along too much.
Anybody have any tips for me on humidity (I believe they don't want to be
covered), moisture (I've been keeping the soil damp) or potting medium (I'm
using 1/2 clean sand and 1/2 peat moss)?

Or perhaps my garden primroses just won't work and I should try my angel
wing begonia instead?

Karen. [though I'd rather make a lot of new primroses than a lot of
begonias, honestly]
