    I have angel trumpets and hibiscus stems rooting in water, the angel trumpets are putting on leaves and have a lot of roots. Do I need to go ahead and put them in soil or will they be ok until spring in the water?

    If I were you, I'd plant them.

    Yes Droopy is right - go ahead and plant them so that come spring you'll have some healthy plants to put into the garden if you'd like to.

    Definitely plant them. I left mine in water too long and the stems rotted.

    I got them planted up today, maybe they will make it. They are a white one and will look pretty with my yellow one. I also have one that has pink and yellow on the same trumpet bush. Thanks,
