How To Cut Wisteria Vine to Root into another plant?

My friend has a wisteria vine that wraps all the way around her front porch and she wants to give me a cutting to start my own plant. Where do we make the cut and how do I take care of the cut? Then once the cut has rooted, when and where do I plant it?

I can give you some general information-- but specifics need to come from a google.



Take the cutting on "new" growth-- usually is green and very flexible. Remove all but the top leaves, dip in rooting hormone powder and stick in the ground -- or a pot with potting soil. I would do several cuttings-- with maybe three in one pot-- and another pot of three. Wet the potting soil or ground before sticking the cutting into it. Place the pots where you'll see them several times a day-- to watch for problems. I wouldn't place the cuttings in the sun at this point. Wait-- I'm guessing a week while watching the cuttings-- they should perk up after a few days-- don't forget moisture but gently. If they perk up-- that is a real possible rooting-- wait some more-- like at least 2 weeks-- take up a perked up cutting-- not the best looking-- and check for roots. If the roots are there-- plant that one outside in full sun and keep watching over your "baby". -- and give the other cuttings a little more time to put out roots.

When you have rooted enough cuttings-- plant them outside in different places-- and keep the strongest-- move it before cold weather- about 8 weeks ahead-- by using a shovel and pushing straight down in a circle around the main stem-- about 8 inches from the stem--then leave it alone for a couple weeks-- what you're doing is cutting longer roots and making the plant put out new feeder roots-- After 2 weeks-- prepare the place the cutting will be living-- and lift the cutting using the shovel marks for size -- lump of dirt and all.-- keep watch over your baby-- don't forget water in the winter months- dryness kills more plants than you can guess.

Good luck-=- it's a tough plant-- just need to baby it in the beginning.
