Hi, Any advice on cuttings to be taken around the garden at this time if
year would be welcome , also advice on
propogation methods as well , and automated waterering on a small scale (
very forgetful )
Are there any web sites with info of this available worth looking up .

Thanks Mike.

Bob has mentioned Pelargonium cuttings - it really isn't worth overwintering
your big old plants [...]

If there's room, you can keep a few flowering on windowsills all the
year round: I find it's very cheering in the depth of winter to have a
blaze of pelargoniums going. These will be a bit leggy and
weak-flowering the following year, so should then be replaced with
ones you've raised from cuttings.
Forget Christmas cactus!

Mike.
