Hello.
I have a question.
Can you root variegated citrus cuttings? Will they preserve the variegation or even produce roots?
Thank you!

Yes you can. Remember some varieties are very hard to root though.

I am trying to root some cuttings of variegated calamondin.
I have used some Clonex on them.
Hope it is going to work.

They will root, but not quite as easily as the green ones.
