We have a very large Daphne bush and we would like to take cuttings.
My wife is the gardener and doesn't usually have any trouble with
cuttings.



The most successful method is to graft cuttings onto D. mezereum rootstock
or to grow from seed.

Thanks a lot Martin but what do you mean by graft cuttings. Is that where
you propagate
them along the ground? And what is D.mezereum rootstock. Is it the same
as rooting powder?
I told you that my wife was the gardener. :-)
I would like these answers before she comes home so that I sound as if I
knoiw what I'm on about!
Thanks a lot
Angus
