                  Works very well. I used it to take cuttings from my giant milkweed and each one sprouted a whole new plant with zero issues.

                  i was skeptical of this product before I used it, but after I was able to root several Ficus plants, I was firmly convinced this product works! I highly recommend for all rooting requirements.

                  if it works, just be patient!
                  I used it for the first time in roses and Jasmine I am delighted with the result, if it works.

                    Does What It Promises
                    Had taken my Germaniums indoors after the summer and put them under lights so I could grow and propagate more for this Spring season. I needed rooting hormone to root the cuttings I took from the mother plant. All went well and I was able to root over 20 cuttings, so I expect to save a ton of money this year by not having to buy new plants as I have done in the past. Next year will do the same with other plants we love to plant in planters around my home. Worth doing and the product does what it is supposed to do.

                    Time will tell if this product works well. Rooting takes time.
