I’m becoming a member of with a few of my fellow gardeners from the #SixOnSaturday group to deliver you a brand new collection of posts that may embrace some straightforward plant propagating concepts and conversations about favorite gardening instruments.
Fellow gardener and #SixOnSaturday blogger Sarah who gardens in South Australia, joins us at this time with a propagating tip. Sarah blogs at RoseGardenConversations
Propagating Petunias.
Snapdragons can simply be taken from tip cuttings. Select wholesome crops and in spring minimize a stem 5-6cm lengthy above a leaf node. Strip many of the leaves from the stem, then pop the cuttings into recent compost, preserve them heat and damp to permit the brand new roots to develop and set up.
The cuttings can be true to the mother or father plant. Taking cuttings will produce crops faster than rising them from seed. That is a straightforward option to enhance your flowering crops without spending a dime.
