getting to the root of it.

a well traveled woman.

i have been coveting the idea of rooting plants in vintage glass jars for a while now. i even tried the (seemingly) easy idea of rooting an avocado pit to no avail. i’ve been successful when it comes to growing from bulbs — like paper whites, but when it comes to roots, i’m an utter failure. so i’m coming to you guys for guidance. i just think this is the prettiest idea, and love the simplicity of the look, but i’ve yet to be able to pull it off. are there any particular plants that you know of that root well like this, from a simple stem in a jar with a narrow neck? if you’ve got some tips, bring ’em on – i’d be most appreciative!
