So I guess this is year 6! Hard to believe. Still taming 2.5 acres of countryside after a life lived in the city.

Most of the #dogwood #cuttings are still going strong, so I potted them up yesterday. At least half have some good roots going at this stage. A couple went a bit limp after being moved, but hopefully a good few will make it 😊 #hedge #transplant

The #dogwood cuttings have actually rooted despite me doing nothing but put them in a vase of water 😁 looks like I'll have 12 plants from pieces I found in the car park!

Happy days! I cut my #dogwood whips back a few weeks ago, stuck the cuttings into the soil beside them, and the cuttings are sprouting away quite happily! Amazing

I didn't get a chance to put these in pots with #rooting powder, but apparently they didn't want to wait 😅 #cuttings

I just clipped some of my #dogwood whips back a little, hope the cuttings take off like yours!

Seems that this has been growing in the car park at work for years and I never noticed! They were pruning it this week so I took some twigs that were dropped, will have a bash at rooting them.
