    All the time they are looking strong, then the plant is adapting. I know it's difficult to not be tempted to " have a tug" but don't. When the roots show at the base you will know it has worked.

        About half of my cuttings have shrivelled up, but about half are still green and 'alive' looking. Its been over a week now, so maybe there is hope.

          Put a bottle over the pot and then put your plastic bag, secured with a band or tape over that.
