Notes:
These cover a wooden fence wall at my parents’ house in Atlanta. They are thick, glossy, and very attractive . I’d like to get some for our own yard. Any idea what this plant is?

It took about 4 months to root, so longer than I expected but I got them from a friend late last summer and didn’t want to plant them going into the fall and winter. I also ended up with hardwood cuttings so I think that’s why it took a little longer. If you have a choice, try a new growth cutting in a few months and an old growth just to ensure your success. I definitely believe rooting hormone and right into some dirt will work just fine.

Cool. How long does it take them to grow so you can plant them? I did a bit of research. Suggested using rooting hormone, soil, etc. in pots.

I’m rooting some of this myself right now in a bottle of water on the window sill. I have enough roots and plan to move it outside this spring. Goog luck!

That looks like an evergreen clematis. Does it have white flowers in the Spring?
