  • Will have a look and see. Today I noticed some have gone all limp! Would have thought new growth would peek through soon!

    Red Dahlia how are your cineraria cuttings doing?   I took my cuttings last weekend (14 Apr), only one is looking a little weary as yet, so am hopeful of a positive outcome.

     

  • Gutted now as I haven't taken any as yet. Ran out of pots after taking some dahlia cuttings!! image

    Thanks Verdun - you're a mine of information.   image

    I'll put that in my notebook for future reference.  Did have mine in a covered propergator on top of a cupboard in my utility area, which has a perspex roof, but they got too hot so I removed the cover.  Think'll move them to a lower position out of direct light now and perhaps put its cover back.

    Red Dahlia - know the feeling - I don't have dahlia cuttings - will try them next year.  I seem to be forever sourcing more pots and compost - but as we all know, where do you put them all, when its not warm enough to plant out.  

     

    Verdun - do you have any tips on growing lavender from seed or cuttings?

    Thanks once again Verdun, you're an absolute star  image  

  • Any ideas on how to take camelia cuttings. I have seen a lovely red double petalled bush and would love to try and root a bit.

     

  • Sorry no clue but a proper gardener like verdun will no doubt know!!
