Just what I was looking for @HarryS & @JWK :cmonhug:

I just did this with laurel. A lot cruder though!! Trimmed a hedge and cut some of the clippings above leaf joint took some of the leaves off. Stuck 100 of them in the ground fingers crossed a few will grow. If not..... Oh well..... No harm. will do the same in Autumn when I trim it again...

Thanks Pamsdish, that's a great thread. Was just wondering if there was anything I could divide now. Best wait.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks "M". I wish I could put it in the garden but it can't cope with the wind.Yes, I would take younger growth Harry and take several as back-up. I wasn't successful with them.

That sounds so easy just to put it straight in the ground, I've always taken about a six inch cutting and treated like a baby in the greenhouse, I'll try your method next time. It's so helpful what we find on GC.

Lake Superior has lots of nice beaches to visit.. in the summer

Thank you for an interesting answer to all that responded, I have always wondered.

If you're in the UK, it's too cold at the moment for chillis and toms to be outside as night time temps will fall even though it seems nice and warm in your mini greenhouse during sunny days. You could get a max min thermometer and put it in your mini greenhouse to check. As has already been...

No experience with Nigeria Victor, but I should imagine spinach would romp away as soon as temps pick up.

Dont know it the quick answer, surely there must be some info available from specialists, you could even try a local nursery that deals in fruit trees. This place is just down the road from meJust click on information on rootstocks.Seems they use a few different ones dependin on the size...

Clivia = patience!They are slow!

Many thanks I'm thinking it may be a bit hit and miss re slugs. I appreciate your knowledge Slugs are troublesome here, might have to re think

Hi ~ I have just tried my hand at taking some hydrangea cuttings. Does anyone know if they need to be covered, or can I just leave them in a shady spot in the garden to hopefully grow. Thanks ~ buddleja.Got the information that I needed from elsewhere. Unfortunately, not this site.

I agree, but as mine are in the main bed I pick them off. Just give the brown ones a gentle tweak - if they come off all well and good, if not try tomorrow. It's not unusual that in their first year (2016) they appear to do nothing but in fact under the soil they are setting their roots out. Two...

Hi JJ,Now is the perfect time to sow any of the Dianthus family ( Carnations, Pinks, Sweet Williams, Lychnis).Just grow them on and plant out in their permanent positions around Sept/ Oct.They're really easy, no fuss plants to grow.

I find it best to be less specific "I'll move them out at the weekend" you might get away with another couple of weekends indoor growing

As Jazz has said 'Snow Pixie' is unusually an annual, not a perennial. Jack, I'd remove the Lupin's from the light box as it's probably to hot in there and then treat them the same as any other annual. Grow them on in as much light (but not full sun) as possible and then harden them off...

Chilean guavas apparently used to be Queen Victoria's favourite fruit, so they grow well in the English climate and are hardy to about -10C.That's all I know as I haven't actually ever grown them before.

Hi there.You say your soil is slightly acidic, so I would assume it has a PH of around 6.5? And, when you say you want to bring the PH down, you mean you want it more acidic?
