Step 3 Select a small 4-inch plastic pot with drain hole.
Step 4 Place several small stones in the bottom of the pot to prevent soil from leaking through the drain holes.
Step 5 Cover the stones with a layer of prepared soil pressed firmly to keep the stones in place.   (Picture 3)
Step 6 Fill loosely with soil just below the top.   (Picture 4)
Step 7 Using a small stick, slightly larger than the cutting, make a hole in the center of the pot down to the stone layer.   (Picture 5)
