  • @Purplerain,..thank you,..everything i put in the soil here thrives,..the garden is well walled in and remains at a pretty good temperature,..i am told i have green fingers lol,..at my age i am pleased to hear that,..Philip.
  • Clivia minata.

    Forest lily.
    Kaffir lily.
    Thong lily.
    Boselie.

    I have two containers  where one bulb was planted,..after two years there are three plants in one container but still only one in the other.

    Native to South Africa woodlands,..used as an indoor plant this side of the pond however it can be placed outside once the temperature isn't below 5 C or 40 F.

    Heuchera cuttings,how do you do them? I've always just split a large plant,I'd like to know how to take cuttings?
    The whole truth is an instrument that can only be played by an expert.
  • @Cagzo,..if you look at the stems coming from the base of the Heuchera you will notice that there are joints which look as if there were another plant beginning,..just cut below that joint then dip it in either rooting powder or rooting gel,..any soil works with Heuchera cuttings,..at this time of year there is no need to put the cuttings in a greenhouse and rooting takes place quick enough,..Philip.
