A couple of years ago I bought several different
buddelia thru e-bay. They were 'sticks' at first but
this year are looking very nice and I'm wondering if,
whilst doing the early spring cutting back encouraged
by my perennial bibles, I can take these green
cuttings and plop them in root-tone and hopefully get
more plants. Last year I tried to find seed in the
blooms, dried some of the blooms and never had
success.
I am an absolute novice at taking cuttings of anything
but roses...with roses I have my mothers green thumb
but other shrub type plants have been less than
successful.
Does anyone have a website with good directions for
taking and successfully growing cuttings?
It's time for me to learn this part of
gardening....there are lots more plants I'd like to
grow from what I have rather than buy more. Wisteria,
hydranga and cape fuchsia are some of them.
Thanks
