Penstemon Cuttings

ElusiveElusive Posts: 992

Hi all, I took some cuttings from my large Penstemon on 15th August.

They are doing fine and growing new leaves but they have no roots :S

Is this normal or do they take longer than this to take root?

    Pinch out the growing tip and wait a bit longer, they will come if they are healthy looking now. I have just done a few dozen. One of my fav flowers.

    Gardening on the wild, windy west side of Dartmoor.

    I gave them a fresh cut at the bottom of the stem below a leaf node and put them back.

    I'll leave them alone now for a while :P
