    Just plonk 🙂
    Does plonk worth better? I've always used water, but maybe a splash of vino might perk things up a bit!
  • No,drink that! My daughter gave me flowers, told me to put them in lemonade. I don't drink it,the flowers get water and like it!!
  • I wondered if there was some connection with the old advice about putting a soluble aspirin in a vase of cut flowers, maybe to deal with the hangover.

    Peperomia obtusifolia, a houseplant — this took about 2 weeks to develop roots

  • choisya, penstemon, mint, honeysuckle and hollyhock all on the windowsill- wish me luck! what a great experiment. If all goes to plan and they do actually root- what is the next step? when should I pot them up? has anyone seen any good online tutorials on it? many thanks

    Swiss cheese plant. I had to chop down ours which had reached the ceiling. I put two sections with a leaf each into a large vase as insurance and both have rooted.
