I haven't had any success, but a cutting will root like mad.

how long on average does it take to get roots? in a humidity dome/with heat mat set to 80 degrees or so.

... just plunk the cutting in a glass of water and within 2 weeks or so, it is ready to be potted up in your favourite substrate.

bummer. i went the full 9 yards, and put rooting hormone on it, and potted it up in perlite. boy was that a waste of time. oh well now i know the quick way for arbacola. i foresee many babies in the future
