Cuttings

Tried these on the off-chance and it worked! Phlox stolonifera (blue) and creeping phlox 'Temiskaming'. I like the colour contrast together in the greenhouse. Must try it in the garden.

I find they can be hit and miss as cuttings, some years good results others abject failure.

Well, all the cuttings I took rooted! Ended up with more than I knew what to do with! I liked both of them in the garden and didn't want to lose them. They're a bit hit and miss in my borders!

I like that colour combination as well Anget. I think they compliment each anther. The contrast is pleasing rather than screaming.

I like the colours together and the form of the blue one.

Glad you all like the colour combo. I wouldn't have thought to put them together before this.

A very striking color combination I must try.

A very pretty combo, have to agree. Well done on successful cuttings too!

I'm learning not to be too hasty with cuttings. I took various 'bits' in the Autumn, thought they were just dead twigs in the Spring, and have discovered some green on them recently. That surprised me. Learn something new...
