Propagation Basics: Tools Techniques Timing
Steven Bradley
With the right techniques, it's simple to increase your plant supply for free. Starting with the simplest methods, like sowing seeds and division, and working up to more adventurous processes, you'll acquire all the practical details of reproducing your favorite plants. Illustrations and photos guide you each step of the way, showing you where and how to snip; handle root systems; lift an existing plant; deal with tangled stems; and work with everything from annuals, bulbs, and vegetables, to fruit, shrubs, and trees. Follow the insider tips on what tools and materials to use, which plants can be layered, when to take a cutting, and surprisingly easy ways of grafting. A directory of over 100 plants identifies the best method for each one, the at-a-glance propagation calendar will help you organize your gardening year, and a troubleshooting section answers all your questions!
