Jill,  I rooted Heliotrope cuttings last fall and wintered them over in the
GH.  I stuck 4-5 in. tip cuttings in a 50/50 perlite/vermiculite mix on
bottom heat at 70 F after  dipping  them in rooting hormone #1.  They rooted
in about 2 weeks.  They are blooming away while waiting to go back outside  %^).
