Hi All, are Pitangatuba cuttings easy to root ? is there a best time of year or stage of growth in which to root them ?                         Regards   Patrick

I haven't tried as they fruit *very* quickly from seed.  Do other eugenias root easily?  I hadn't seen it talked about which makes me suspect they do not root easily.

Eugenias are notoriously difficult to root from cuttings, Pitangatuba is one of the 'easiest', next is grumichama from my understanding..

They are relatively easy to graft...
