She said that she put a sprig of it into water one time but it never grew roots. We are in Texas and she has it planted in her front yard and it is about six feet tall and smells wonderful!
My friend has a Jasmine plant and we were wondering if I could get a start from her plant?
Propagation Method: Air-layering, stem cuttings of new growth.
This is a quote from the link below:
"i have been able to propogate night blooming jasmine (cestrum nocturnum) without much effort. all u need to do is take cuttings of a decent size (upto 8-9 inches), preferably terminal, remove the leaves in lower 1+1/2 to 3 inches, peal to expose the cambium layer in this part soak in water for a couple of minutes, apply rooting hormone and simply poke this into coarse sand upto a depth such that remaining leaves stay above sand. cover this pot with a clear polybag or something such that it forms a small greenhouse of its own; this is crucial for quick results. mist it a couple of times a day after removing this cover.
just take care that u have atleast a couple of nodes on the lower part of the cutting that u expose by pealing.
wait till u c activity on the cutting. then repot in a different medium after pulling the new plant out of sand. almost any garden medium will do (not the coarse sand it was rooted in)."
