Propagating Gardenias

29 Nov 2023

Today I repotted some Aimee and a Floridia Gardenia into pots.

I absolutely love the aroma of these flowers so I’ll place them in semi shade and part full sun under the bedroom window so the aroma can waft into the house when we open the windows.

The succulents were transplanted into a barren spot in the front garden.

I decided to take some cuttings and try to propagate them in water. Two cuttings from a broken branch, trimmed off the leaves. I left some on top, placed them into water on top of the bookshelf in the sunroom.

Now we wait for 8 to 10 days at a guess, once the roots appear I’ll transplant them into potting mix.

The weather has turned ugly – torrents of rain and wind so no gardening today and tommorow I’m back at work.

I’ll start a veggie patch with the children there as well because I really enjoy teaching them about sustainability, fresh food and the environment.

Veggie patch anywhere and everywhere !
