Kay, I rooted this using florists' foam. I didn't really start out to root it, as I've heard it's difficult, but I broke a piece off when moving the mother plant. I took that piece and cut it down into three small cuttings, probably about three nodes long, then treated it like I do passiflora cuttings. Audrey, I REALLY want the 'Mojito'---but if I don't get any offers, then I'll get back in touch with you!

Medo: You know if I had it, that I would send it to you!! But, sniff, sniff, I don't... Happy Easter to you and your husband as well a Tabor and Talla! Ann

I've had my T. mysorensis bloom in a 15 gallon container and with only 8 foot of growth, so they don't necessarily need to be big or old to bloom, especially if they are grown from cuttings off a mature plant, as mine was. On the other hand, here in northern California, it is not exactly ideal climate for them, and they only bloom in mid summer to mid fall. On the other hand, I also have a Beaumontia grandiflora planted out in nearby Alameda on a 3 story tall east facing wall, and it must be about 40 feet across and 25 feet tall, and it hasn't bloomed yet after 5 years of being in the ground. I assumed it may not be getting enough heat or prefers full sun, but I see a much smaller specimen at San Francisco's Botanic Garden bloom every year, but it does get full all day sun. I wish I knew what if anything I could do to get my Beaumontia to bloom!

I have a friend who owns a nursery, that has/had one - it's currently on display in a butterfly atrium. Her vine is MASSIVE ie it's in a 50 gallon container and of course, blooms every summer. I got cuttings from her and asked how long before it would bloom - she said hers was a woody and huge vine before it finally bloomed, so I'd say (according to her description) it has to have a large caliper before it will bloom.
