Re: Gaura.....- Propagation through cuttings


Nope.  I used 1 x 2 treated "slats".  The lumber yards around here (PA)
stock two grades --- it's worth buying the clear grade if you can find it. 
The common warps and twists pretty badly.  

But I neglected to mention that I built it on top of a greenhouse bench, in
the greenhouse, so that the frame does nothing more than support the
plastic.  And it will not be exposed to the weather.  Put it together with
1-1/4" galvanized deck screws and nylon pull-ties (which work well when you
are working alone and need an extra pair of hands).
