    I took a few cuttings from an Azalea I watered the ends first and then dipped them in hormone powder now 2 weeks later they look dead!, I put them in pots of multi compost!

    Sue, Pamsdish, for this type of plant you layer stems. Pin down any stem close to the ground. The stem will root from any leaf axil in touch with the ground.
