You can easily propagate oriental poppies by taking root cuttings. They make perfect candidates for this propagation method as it exploits the plant's propensity to reproduce itself from every scrap of root left behind when plants are moved. Once

, I thought the longer the root the easier they would establish, thanks. Thanks everyone,I will give it a try. I have 6 plants I propagated in water last summer which are doing absolutely brilliantly. I have also potted up 4 cuttings earlier

let's all boast about successful propagation,as we all feel proud when we do it so let us share and compare. i will start by saying i have taken sedum cuttings for the second year from emerging  shoots.last year i took stem tip cuttings from bowles

I grew  Lamium and  Ajuga in pots last year and I would like to propagate them. All the books seem to say that if they grow in the ground they produce their own offsets and therefore they should be divided. As they are in containers can I take
