Red Osier Dogwood Propagation - just started root
So I've never propagated anything before but just tried with a softwood and semi hardwood cutting of Red Osier Dogwood (a native plant herein Canada) to see if it would grow. I heard about rooting hormone but didn't use it, i simply put it in a mug. It's now day 28 of having it sit in a mug of water (water changed once every 5 days), and there are all of a sudden some root development! I don't know plant terminology good enough to say what they're called but there's one main root and then there is also multiple small root things coming out of the main root. These just formed in the last 30h so I'm sure they formed during day 27-28. Even though they just started they are spreading pretty fast and the water level is going down in the mug very fast so I think it's takeing a lot of water in! If there is any advice that would be helpful but for now it's just an update / a realistic water propagation
Also the leaf on the left has that dull colour because I accidentally put it slightly folded against a window, but the rest of the leaf and other leaves are fine
