Default Re: *@% am i wasting my time? no root

First, spelling is Orinoco. Second, do not give up because of no roots. I show a drawing here of what happened to one of my mother plants. (Camera was broken, at the time.)

The plant was found broken off. I cut it off to about a foot, and put it in a pot. The green/white center pushed out about an inch or two, and then stopped. The pot was placed in the basement and, after several months, the main stem rotte, and fell over, but a vigorous pup appeared.
