(HOW TO PROPAGATE/ROOT)
-------------------------------------------------------------

(#3) Store in a warm, humid spot with bright indirect lighting (We root/propagate our cuttings in a humid Enclosed Terrarium).

(#4) Roots should start to appear after 7–14 days!

(#5) Once established you are ready to go... HAPPY PLANTING!!!

(#6) This is a basic rooting method for the best results we recommend researching your specific plant.

It does very well with poison dart frogs or any of your vivarium or terrarium critters; in a very still and moist environment.
