Hiya
I have made some cuttings of my geraniums, fuschias,osterpermums,
nemesia and busy lizzies. They are all rooting well in the
conservatory. I have bought a growhouse, (small plastic four tiered
'greenhouse' - different shops call them different things), I am going
to put a hat on the greenhouse as I have seen a fleece cover for it at
£2.99. I am on the south coast, Bognor Regis, so mildish here I
guess. I am going to anchor the growhouse to the ground in case it
decides to go off on a trip with the winds.

My question is: Do you think the cuttings will be ok outside in the
growhouse once rooted, do I have to water them.

The busy lizzys look a bit tender to go out there, I could keep them
indoors as they are quite attractive house plants.

The only problem with keeping any cuttings indoors is the little black
flies which really annoy me.

Hi my view is that the little plastic greenhouse will not provide any
protection at all for the cuttings particularly the Busy lizzies, Nemesia if
we get adecent frost.

The Geraniums, Fushia can be lightly watered wrapped in Newspaper and stored
in a frostfree environment keep an eye on them and keep the soil/ roots
damp.

Take cuttings once the growth on the Geraniums etc has started in early
spring, but this will only happen if you give them constant heat and TLC

The walls of a building will offer a little protection from prevailing winds
etc and also heat from the day as the temperature falls in the evening again
