Hi. I have what I believe is a Senecio Sunshine shrub in my garden. *Can
anybody tell me if you can take cuttings from this or does some of it

I'm just looking to add it elsewhere in the garden.

Many thanks from a complete gardening numpty.

We used to call it Senecio greyii, When I was a lad and working at the
local parks dept in Hastings, we had a hedge if it right along the
bottom of the putting green.
I was asked by the parks superintendant to take cuttings, How many?
All you can.
I took around 2000 and didnt loose more than 50, if that. No rooting
powder, just cuttings 9to 12 inches long lower leaves removed and
poshed into the soil. taken at the end of Sept. they rooted through
the winter and were ready to plant out in the spring.
They still root like weeds for me.
