Reproduction by Cuttings
Reproduction by cuttings is a simple plant propagation technique that is part of traditional gardening techniques and that even less experienced people can carry out without any difficulty. However, propagation by cuttings becomes complicated when we want to apply it indiscriminately to all plant species.
This work, technical and practical at the same time, will allow you to know the factors that must be taken into account before starting the operation of reproduction by cuttings. It will teach you, step by step, how and at what time of the year to intervene, which part of the plant should be removed, how to prepare the cuttings, the use of rooting hormones, and planting in cups.
Thanks to this highly instructive work, you will discover the different techniques to multiply not only your geraniums and carnations, but also numerous flowering plants, succulent plants and shrubs. This book offers you the opportunity to embellish your garden or balcony by reproducing a plant from your friends' garden that you have fallen in love with.
