Grow Your Own Magazine

My wife has recently bought some senetti's from the garden centre. We would both love a few more of them next year, but as lovely as they are they are quite expensive.

I decided to look for seeds, to grow my own, but it seems that senetti's are grown from cuttings.

Whilst I have grown lots of plants from seeds that I have collected myself and created lots more plants through division, I have never actually took cuttings or grown anything from cuttings.

Considering this, I wondered if anyone has any experience of taking cuttings from senetti's for the following year and if so, could they talk me through the process. as I would love to try it for myself.


Thanks for any help or advice you can give me.

I would do them just like fuchsias. Here's an old thread which should tell you how: Geranium Cuttings for Dummies
or good advice on various techniques from the RHS: Royal Horticultural Society - Gardening Advice: Propagating Tender Plants
