I tried it again, after 3 previous failures, and it worked this time! At least one of them. There might be a green bud started on one of the other 3, but the one has several green buds. I tried the same thing as when I trimmed the curry tree back in fall, when it was time to bring in. These are not soft stem cuttings, like basil, but hardwood cuttings, with no leaves left on them, but the nodes is where the new growth starts. Curry tree cutting, with green buds, almost a month after planting. 11-8 by pepperhead212, on Flickr
