Default Camelia cuttings

I have grown camellias from cuttings - straight in the ground. I didn't
think they would be a problem to strike. I planted in partial shade in the
garden after a prune and most cuttings took OK. The soil was very well
drained, so I kept them just moist.
Anyway, it is worth a try as it only costs you time. I have used honey to
aid with rooting - don't know if it helps, but I use it anyway. Good luck.

Hello

I love these plants and I have a few friends with different varieties. Is
it possible to grow camellias from cuttings? I have heard it can be a
difficult process so if any one has had any experience in this area I

would
be most grateful for any advice..... or tips.

Thanks
