Re: Lavender Cuttings
Diane, I want to know more about your storing plants in sawdust in the
summer to keep their roots cool. What kinds of plants have you done this
with? When do you do your planting? Can you describe the sawdust pile to
put it into context for us, i.e. is it under trees or in some other type of
shade?
