How To Propagate A Purple Passion Plant ( Tutorial - Results )
I show you how I propagated my purple passion plant in order to multiply them and have more plants. This is a pretty simple and safe method, if you find that your plant is becoming to leggy or vine like, this is also a great way to promote a more bushy growth.

My purple passion died and I had one tiny measly leaf left...well I put it in water and it started growing roots and before I knew it there was like 3-4 new leaves! I propagated my purple passion FROM ON LEAF!😅
Thank you so much for staring this little story lol, thats exactly my Situation and i wanted to know wether i can hope or no😭😭
This was so helpful. Literally the only thorough video I could find of this plant. Thank you for sharing your progress with actual updates! I can’t stand the videos where a plant gets propagated and cuts off there and you have no idea if it actually took.
Thanks for stopping by and commenting kind words!
yes, thanks for showing how well the cuttings did after you planted them in soil
First video that came up on my Google search and yes, it was most helpful. Simple and to the point! ♡ My daughter loves her purple passion but there's only one stem that's getting fairly long due to the warm, humid summer here in NW Ohio.
A small artist's brush or make-up brush is good for dusting off that loose soil when planting cuttings or other small plants. I use on for my tiny succulents, too.
Thanks for the tips!
This is what I do!
As they mature, they like to branch out and vine. If you want them to remain bushy and less leggy, keep it pruned. It hates water on the foliage, so water carefully. It prefers bright indirect light, and moderately moist soil. I believe the more humidity and sun, the more vibrant and lush the velvety purple hairs become. Thanks for the prop tips!
"If you have too many plants" ..lol
looking back at this its crazy because my collection is probaly 10x as big now
Only a guy would say this lol
I usually check if I’m able to pull a leaf off the side that has roots and hoorah I was able to propagate a new plant while having my old one!
You can actually just put your cutting back in the soil and they will root. If you do use the water method you don't have to leave them for so long...once you see roots...put them in soil. These are sooooooo easy to propagate. Also to avoid water on the leaves that cause mold...put your pot in a dish that will allow you to put water in the lower dish so the roots get plenty of water..but the leaves don't get wet.
Thanks for the tips! and thanks for watching!
@@TechplantChannel That's the way I water all my vegetable seedlings. Pour the water into a flat and let it soak up from the bottom. Be sure you have drainage holes in your pots.; but not in your flats! :-). I found your video after buying a $3 Purple Passion on sale. Your photos of the cuttings are great!
this might be late, but I tried doing that, and it got withered really fast, and it looks so sad, any tips?
I'm so glad I found this video! This is literally the only video I have been able to find about this particular plant! My best friend found 2 of these hidden under a pallet of other plants almost dead in Walmart. She gave me one and I managed to get it fairly large but hers unfortunately died. She didn't realize it was an inside plant and forgot it outside during a freeze! Now I can get her another one. We think they look like plants from a fairy garden, so whimsical and colorful. I'm going get a new plant started for her now! Thank you!!
I had these years ago. Had several hanging plants from them. I did start many babies and gave them to everyone I met!
awesome!
Very helpful! I have kept clones of my purple passion alive since 1971. I almost lost them all to a white fly infestation two years ago. If I hadn't been cloning them in different parts of my house, I would have lost them! I have only two established plants at the moment and it's time to make more baby clones! Your video is reassuring and helpful!
I did this a few months ago and it is growing tremendously
Came across this because I took a tiny cutting from my moms purple passion and it’s rooting. So now I need to figure out if I should take it out of water or not yet lol
I wish people would give progress shots like this, great job!
Me too! thats why i started making videos no one shows you the in between!!! Thakns for watching
Thank you for the detailed video and for actually showing the progress of each propagation unlike other channels. About to go propagate mine now!
I just tried propagating a sad/dying purple passion & am hoping it grows some more roots this week 🤞🏼
Thank you so much for this basic info on rooting these beauties. I've used this method for many years successfully. I have little knowledge of purple passion plant. Your video is most helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
I had one with vines over 8 feet long, now I have over 14 cuttings all happy and several are about to flower just a couple months after they rooted I never tried growing them in water, just put them directly in soil and I've never lost a cutting from this plant
Thanks so much for the vid. I’ve been looking for a prop vid on purple passion. One of mine died so I’m trying to create more. Thanks again for the info. I feel confident now to prop this plant.
I once saw one of those purple plants inside a bottle garden. It looked very beautiful.
Extremely helpful TY 🤗
Thanks for the great advice.
I love the video and it was so great to have updated everything in the same video
Thanks, I'm gonna try this out. This is one of my favourite plants, so I hope I can grow more to give to my friends.
I love this!!! More propagation videos!
Thanks for educating gonna do this week
Very thorough video. Thanks very much because I love this plant.
no problem, thanks for watching!
Super helpful! Thank you 🤗
no problem, thanks for watching!
Congratulations on 2,000 subscribers! I hope one day I have that many! Great video! I am going to also be propagating my purple passion plants, they're getting so leggy! I can't wait to see more so I also subscribed! Happy Planting!
awesome video! I'm so amazed the little plant survived in the end, I wish I had better luck with my own purple passion
Thanks again. I finally got one to live and grow long enough to propagate. Great tips!😀
Congratulations for 2 thousand subscribers! Can this work for every plant. Looking forward to the future videos.
These are super fun to propagate! I have to repot soon since I've filled the one they're in! I love your videos,thanks for putting these out. Also you come across as a really nice guy which makes these fun to watch! Have a great day.
Thanks for watching and thanks for the kind words!
That was really helpful. I just got a cutting from my friend. Didn't have a clue what to do with it. Thank you cute gardener 😉❤️
Glad I could help! and thanks for the compliment!
Congratulations on 2,000+ subscribers!
Thanks!!!
Thank you sooo much for this video and for showing the progress. My plant is a mess and now I know what to do! Thx!
Perfect video for this. Thank you for showing us the whole process, very much appreciated! Great vid
Glad you enjoyed it!
This is exactly what I needed. Thank you! Mine had two stalks getting wayyy too long and I didn't realize I could do this! Yay
Love this so much thank you! My purple passion is pretty small to medium sized, so I've had to take quite a small cutting around the same size as your small one, wish me luck! Thanks again!
thank you for this video! so helpful :)
Good luck with your propagation!
good information . I love my purple passion plants
same they are so cool, we have a really big one now!
Thank you for the tips, I had forgotten how to care for this beautiful plant .
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks so much 💚🌱🙏🏼 exactly what I needed before I began my propagation journey with my beautiful purple passion 💜 and I’m subscribing ✅
Thanks for the sub and thanks for watching!
This video was how I found your channel. Lol. Someone gave me cuttings of this plant and I was like, “what the hell is this monstrous plant?!”
Nice, yeah they make stinky flowers too!
Techplant haven’t seen it flower yet but I did hear that. Also heard they’re an orange color and really make the plant colors pop. Lol
very helpful. thank you
Thanks for watching! I hope yours grow well!
You must NOT let any water get on the leaves..... NO MISTING... Watering the plant from the bottom is better. The water ON the leaves cannot dry because of the tiny velvet-like hairs that cannot absorbe the water, making the plant prone to leaf rot and may attract bugs. The use of a humidifier for your indoor plants is a PLUS especially if you have air conditioning during the summer as the dry air can become a problem for your house plants. This IS a lovely plant to have. Good information on this. Thanks.
Yesh i noticed the same thing they stay wet forever
Just a quick note that may help, I did everything according to this video and the only difference was it took longer for the roots to get going and I had them by a window and I thought maybe it was a little too cold so I put plastic wrap around the window and The Roots took off so you may look into water temperature as I am in Papillion Nebraska and it's been really cold for a while
Very good point, you want to keep the water from getting too cold. anytime your cuttings get cold it will slow down its rate of growth! Thanks for bringing this up!
What does having too many plants mean? Lol. Thanks for the great video. I just got my first purple passion and I’m excited. Although I’m a farmer and have been growing produce for years, propagating house plants is new to me. Glad to learn more. :)
Nice job.
Thank you! and thanks for watching!
So I've had one for the past 2 years I haven't taken good care of it now I do. It's never had flowers yet. I've seen one with flower gave one to my MA which in turn my father took care of and brought it out side in the summer which it love cause it had lots of flower.
I personally don't like the flowers because they stink lol
@@TechplantChannel 6 days so far no roots. The plants are still alive tho. The main plant isn't the one I clipped from.
Great video...My purple passion is 16" tall and I've been wanting to cut it without killing it. Very thorough video. Thank you
Thanks for watching
Thank you ❤
You're welcome 😊
Omg these flower😂 I didn’t know that! Mines gotten big but hasn’t got buds yet😅
be glad they STINK!
Thanks
Thanks for watching!
thanks
You're welcome!
Well thank you
Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much for this easy to follow tutorial! Would you have/make a video about patchouli plants? My sweet plant is *struggling* and I can’t figure out what to do!
I can try!
excellent video, very easy to follow! do some vegetables bro! thank you very much
Working on veggies as we speak!
I love this plant too. You're video was quite helpful. I too want to propagate mine as well as another plant I enjoy but can't find propagation information on. It is a pepperomia. polybotra - the rain drop plant. Would you please make a video on this plant-it's care and propagation. Thank you.
I dont have this plant but when i see it ill buy it and try!
I have a very viney one. It’s has like 4 or 5 vines and they’re all like 10 feet long!
I was curious if you can propagate with just one leaf of the plant and to my surprise, within 4-5 days in water the leaf itself started to root. I did this during the winter aswell so this really suprised me.
It could be a plant that can do this. Some plants need a growth node too tho. Only time will tell good luck!
@@TechplantChannel yea i tried this with my purple passion, i'm brand new to this and wanted to expiriment
@@LUIS-zk9oe best way to learn and find out new things. There is a ton of misinformation in this hobby and long held beliefs so always try new things and you'll be shocked at the cool new things you'll find that work! Don't even take my videos as truth and keep experimenting! Good luck on your adventure ✨️
Loved video, I was looking for passion fruit plant. Can u do that successfully
if i can find one i can try
Thank you for this info.whrre could we buy more of these pla0nts??
can you tell us how to start a plant from the flower seeds? do they need to stratify?
I DEMAND MORE VIDEOS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Im gunna try and get one out tomorrow!!!! sorry for the delay!
lmao
A very informative video. Now if you can get your purple passion plant to flower. You're doing pretty good. Because it won't flower unless it's very happy. And yes, the flowers do stink. But they are also beautiful, so it wouldn't hurt to leave a few of them on. And by the way, when you're making new plants they're not "clones" are just babies. You're growing new babies. Clone sound really technical and kind of cold. But otherwise, a good video.
ill try and change my verbiage lol clones do sound kinda cold. Thanks for watching!
a tip for cleaning dirt from hairy leaves is using a make up brush.
Great tip!
Wow, excellent video! Do you change the water while rooting or just keep filling it up? I did this with carnations, unfortunately, when I put them in the ground they all died :( Love your pictures and explanations.
I just kept filling it up, you can change it if you feel its getting nasty. Just remember to not use chlorinated tap water because the roots will be sensitive. Im sorry that happened to the carnations :( Good luck with your future attempts.
Just found your channel, I subscribed to you and turned on the bell 😉😎🌱🥀 my neighbor gave me a cutting 3 days ago and I put her in soil already, as soon as she gave it to me... Should I leave her or move her into propagation water?? She stood straight back up the same day I planted her
the soil method works just fine, I know im way late on relplying so I hope its doing well!
Thanks for this tutorial! I really want to start propagating! Can I take plants from the outdoors and do this successfully? I would really want to try hostas but I assume we are talking "single" leaf so I don't know if that would be enough.
Some plants can't be propagated so easily. I'll look into hostas and get back too you.
What do u use to get rid of bugs
Do you bottom water these guys ever? Just got mine a couple weeks ago, was told to bottom water now it’s willy and some leaves turned brown and mushy. Checked the roots they’re fine and added some perlite to the soil and put it back in pot.
Hi ... Looking for a purple passion plant to purchase.. Where can I go to get one...Please...I've looked everywhere ? I live in Ottawa.❤😊
more propagation video,s
If I take the mid cut would it root in water? Mine is really long I am planning to make it two plants from one Vine
I think so but i did not try
If I have mold on leave like that should I remove it? Or just cut that out so that the mold doesn’t spread?
you can remove it if you would like
Did you leave the cuttings under a grow light/room with a lot of natural light?
Mine sit under those lights you can see behind me! They seem to work really well for them!
Hi! I have a plant that I believe to be a purple passion plant, however its leaves are not as spiky looking. Do you think this is the same plant or some other hybrid?
send a pic to techplant.official@gmail.com or the IG techplant.official
Just an FYI, you don't need gigantic roots while propagating. 2" is sufficient. 😘
true, i like to be overly cautious
Where do you leave the plants you are trying to propagate in water? Just a regular windowsill with bright not direct light?
Everything i grow is under grow lights
Should these propagations be near the window even though they don't like direct sunlight?
yeah maybe not a south facing window. but the others would be fine. I think i had mine in a south facing window tho and they did ok
Do these grow faster if they are in high med or low light while rooting in water
I give all my plants grow lights, They aren't as strong as the sun but they are stronger than say just window light that isnt direct sun if that makes sense
@@TechplantChannel yes actually makes perfect since. I have mine under grow lights myself. Well in the winter months. I just, for some reason, have a hard time getting these to root no matter how I do it.
I have a purple plant that has grown out of control, how much of the runs can i cut back before endangering the plant? ~5 runs hanging down ~2-3'
you could chop it back pretty far, probably leave like 6-8 inches and it will bounce back
@@TechplantChannel Thank you so much for the reply , keep up the great videos!!
Add more sunlight and you'll get a lot more purple
Yo my guy you only need 2 growth nodes! Top for growth and the bottom node for rooting! It is literally only an inch long and roots just as quickly as the large ones!
I see how yours died being left too close to the water but if you get 70 cent neoprene inserts at a garden supply center and clean out keureg coffee cups you can put your cuttings into that and cut the top of a water bottle and put holes in the bottom of the disposable coffee cup Insert. Then fill the water bottle up to the level of the stem obviously and it’ll keep moisture away from the leaves :) also you don’t even need to leave the leaves on just the growth top technically but if you do leave a leaf it’ll grow quicker granted you can keep moisture off of it!
thanks for all the info, i will try it next time i propagate these!
Any of those woody small bumpy growths on the vine part seem to be nodes with potential to start rooting. So one could take advantage of that when picking spots to propagate by cutting.
My purple passion plants always rot when I try to get roots. They root when I even water my purple passion 😭what am I doing wrong?
I have been able to just stick a leaf in soil and it grow.
Nice job!
Left the little one a bit too long, and surprised you didn't use root tone.
every time i use root powder it just like floats off onto the surface of the water then gets all wierd lol
I think I have a male flowering plant, since it has small silver tassels instead of the orange stinkers that most videos seem to show.
interesting!
@@TechplantChannel Just posted a pic on reddit: redd.it/ic6g5i
how do you get yours to flower so easily?
I dont know but they just never stop. maybe fertilizer and lots of light is helping
I didn't know this plant could be rooted in water. I've always used rooting hormore on this plant. Anyone still linked in to this video. .....I need advice before mine dies.
Both water and soil work pretty well for this plant, it seems to be a vigrous grower
Meet Virginia take cuttings and grow the new ones if you’re worried your larger plant isn’t dong well and maybe think about what’s wrong in your soil. :)
I don't see the link for making the growth thing
??
You said you'd leave a link to some device to help cuttings grow fastee
why more lower leaves turning dark brown?
I think its natural, like most plants as the the leaves age they shed them
Can you do a Rose one and show me how:0
Ill look into it, will take a bit to film the steps!
I tried this now the leaves are wilting is it anything I can do to save it I'm so upset that I cut this plant never again well I cut it can someone give me an answer please
Thanks for replying I sent pics to your email.
This plant is good for UTI just incase you guys didn't know.
I just use a drinking straw to blow excess dirt and dust from my plant leaves.
Really wish people would stop using the word "clone" when they're talking about propagation. It's NOT a clone. It's a cutting, period! A clone is where you take genetic material from the plant (or other biological life) at the molecular level and put it into another plant (or other biological life) to create a replica.
yeah but wouldnt you say they share the same genes? I was under the impression they are genetically the same.
I paid $24 and died later I dont know why after a month it was healthy .
maybe over watering? I only water when i notice the leaves start to get tiny bit floppy
😏@ 5:04 and that's what she said 🥴
lmao I hope im never "clearing the dirt away" lmao
