Hello Margaret,

Just to say your message received here fine and dandy.

Good news about the Ballota cuttings, I have also had good success with the method Gill recommends.

As with all grey/silver felty leaved plants, the trick is not to let them stay too wet around the stems, good drainage and not closely covered.

I am having difficulty sending questions to this list. My messages are returned saying that they can’t be delivered within four days. I am using this ‘reply all’ method as a sort of test. Please forgive me if you are irritated by this.

I find that greenwood cuttings work very well, spring or autumn, without much additional care other than the usual - light shade, keep watered etc.  My plant also self seeds around the garden so i guess this is another possibility.

Good luck,

Hello group!

I was wondering if any of you has experience in propagating B. pseudodictamnus, and what's the best way to do it. Until now have tried with cuttings in diferente times of the year with no success.

Thank you

Alexandre
