Rosemary cloned
The little gamble on propagating rosemary from frail cuttings paid off at 20%. Out of about 40 starts, eight took root, this without any sort of rooting compound. I put them in 3″ peat pots yesterday. They’re headed for the summer herb garden.

I love doing cuttings. You get so much for so little…..ie one box bush becomes one box hedge!

Yes, it’s extremely satisfying, different from starting from seed. I wonder if this is the same feeling that makes some folks want to clone chickens and sheep and people?! :)
