Rosemary revival

Rosemary cuttings

A little experiment in vegetative propagation—replicating rosemary from tiny, stressed cuttings. Most of the potted rosemary taken up from the herb garden last season got toasted after too many -20°C nights in the unheated greenhouse (a bit of a random how-cold-can-they-go experiment). These tiny cuttings came from one that was taken indoors earlier. They’re kinda frail and stretched from relatively low light (”etiolated” is the typically uncommon technical term). They’ve already been three days in the tray, let’s see how they do. (results)
