I’m trying to propogate some already, very established Cat’s Claw.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dolichandra_unguis-cati
I have never used cuttings to propogate vines, but I’m wondering if this is the best approach.
I’m reading that seeds and tubers are two alternatives.
Anyone have experience with this or any pointers?
Secondly, I’m toying with the idea of letting them grow (somewhat invasive) onto some very tall, dead oleanders to maintain a natural privacy wall. We don’t plan to remove oleanders, as they are huge and portions are still living.

Currently in Phoenix valley.

Any thoughts??

Have a wonderful day!

Thanks Debbie! I find the “gardner’s notes” particularly helpful. Good site!
