Fuchsia cuttings...

...are amazing.  I got a fuchsia for my wife last Mother's Day, and it has been growing on a hook in our backyard ever since.  I recently pruned it slightly, as it came through our so-called "winter" with some unsightly tendrils, and placed the cuttings in soil one week ago.  Enclosed everything in a plastic bag, and kept moist.  I noticed yesterday that one of the cuttings has roots already!  (You can see a couple of them above the soil.)  That is just ridiculous.  Maybe I should fill up the back yard with fuchsia.

This stands in STARK contrast to my problems with cuttings of Sierra Juniper.  I've tried dozens of cuttings, with bottom heat, mist, you name it, for months and months and months...with zero success.  Let's hope that the seeds work out better.

Update: I've added a new post describing how to propagate fuchsia.
