I'm guessing the 'Spider's Web' is a variegated cultivar? Toni's right on about the care....I have a pretty large one that I put outdoors during the summer, and in the winter I place it right by our front entry door. It gets many blasts of cold air with no ill effects, and it honestly doesn't get a lot of light there. I think the summer outdoors kind of makes up for the lack of light in the winter. A varigated cultivar would need slightly more light than a non-variegated one, though.

I love the fatsia plant, it just doesn't fit into my garden! I just cut it down to 4' tall by 4' wide and moved it to a new location so it's ready to go into your garden. I would like a few nice hosta plants - I've already got the typical green/white varigated ones with purple flowers. I'd like some other varieties. Please email me with your trade ideas! Convenient location near 405 and 520 in Bellevue. Thanks...

I have successfully rooted cuttings. They are slow, but I used the standard procedure of a bottle of water in the kitchen window sill. I did it in the spring before the new stem was hardened. I also tried woody stem and root hormone but was less successful with that. Some took but others didn't. If I recall correctly I got 100% with the rooting in water method. Good luck.
