Lobelia cardinalis propagation

[mattcham]

Anybody here have Lobelia Cardinalis? I got mine from those tissue culture packs at PetSmart 4 months ago. They have been thriving in my low tech tank and I'm wondering how to propagate them. Can I just cut the 4" stem in half and plant the clipping?

Most of the online info is for terrestrial plant care and talks about planting seeds.

If its a stem plant you can cut it off at the leaf node and replant. Just try it once and if it works repeat it.

Thanks! I just found the answers too. Just had to tweak my search phrase.

Everyone says to just clip and plant the clipping.
