I can be a cheapskate
Well, the catgrass that I planted last week is starting to send out roots. The yummy green shoots will follow soon. The Kitties are starting to salivate. So, now it is time to take cuttings from my 7-10 year old geraniums. I want to keep these plants going because they have sentimental value. My Mother in law gave me cuttings and she is now in heaven watching me take care of her babies. The geraniums look like octopus right now, so they need a good trimming. The 4-6" trimmings have the bottom two sets of leaves plucked off and then those leaf scars are placed on 4" pots filled with moist Fertilome potting soil. Practically buried up to their necks. They are then placed in a partly shaded area to root for 4 weeks.
