For rooting, prepare a well-draining medium such as a mix of peat and perlite, and insert the cut end of each cutting after dipping in rooting hormone if desired. Maintain consistent moisture and high humidity by covering with a plastic dome or bag, and place in bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sun until roots form.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlternatively, these cuttings can be used for grafting onto compatible rootstock. Once rooted or grafted and established, transplant into a sunny garden location with well-drained soil. Water regularly during the first growing season to help plants settle in.
