Plant Propagation

Have you ever brought a plant or flower from your local nursery that you really loved and wished you could grow more without spending more ? Then Plant Propagation will become your new best friend.

Plant Propagation is the process of creating new plants from the stem cuttings or clippings from another plant.

It's very easy to do and with the right soil, timing and season you will be rewarded with an array of your favorite flowers,scrubs and plants, whether it's an Evergreen (meaning it stays green all through the winter), or if it's Deciduous (meaning it will lose its leaves in the winter).

Be patience as some plants may take longer to propagate then others, but how cool is it to have a yard full of your Favorite flowers just by snipping a clipping off of one plant =)

Below is a link to a great article on how to propagate plants =)
