Hello Babaji...i presume u meant propagate...? BTW r u referring to d wisteria o d Ranggoon Creeper/Quiscalis indica...? if u r referring to d Ranggoon Creeper..well results vary among gardeners. Some are lucky; others not. A common form of propagation is stem cuttings. You might try rooting semi-hardwood and soft cuttings to see which works best for you. The easiest is to look for a rooted sucker...if your vine has produced suckers, look for a rooted segment that has popped up near the mother plant, sever (with roots) and plant elsewhere. Some have been able to grow Rangoon creeper from seed. The black fruit (seed pod) is oblong with sharp angles and has just one seed.
beautiful, mine is about to flower too. How is your wisteria doing?
