Cuttings Easy
Photinia, is it easy to take starts and how do I do it ?

I just bought a One Gallon photinia and I live in zone 7 OR and they grow photinia around here as the mainstay in huge bushes. I want to know how to take cuttings and is it fairly easy ?

Photinia or red-tip is easy to propagate from stem cuttings. This shrub which is very tolerant of urban conditions roots best when semi-hardwood or hardwood cuttings are used,

Semi-hardwood cuttings are those taken from partially mature wood of This Year's growth. The best cuttings are taken just after a growth flush, generally in the summer or early fall. The wood should be somewhat firm and the leaves fully mature.

Hardwood cuttings are those taken from dormant, mature stems in late fall, winter, or early spring. The wood should be very firm and not bend easily.

For more Information about propagating from stem cuttings visit the Learn2Grow.com article Success with Stem Cuttings at http://learn2grow.com/gardeningguides/pr...

Another great publication about propagation from the University of Florida can be found at http://edis.ifas.ufl.edu/EP030

Rootrainersâ„¢
USD 16.95
 
For big, healthy, well-rooted plants from seed or cuttings, look no further than Rootrainersâ„¢! And it's so much fun -- with this rooting system, you can actually watch the progress of your plants anytime you want just by opening one side of the 4-celled unit! If you grow much of your garden from seed or cuttings, or grow large seed that do not fit in small-plug seed starting units, this is the tray you want!Each cell of this 32-cell tray is 1 1/2 inches square and 5 inches deep -- that's enough room to let you really get started on a substantial root system before transplanting into the garden or container! Just fill each cell with your choice of potting medium, water in, plant your seed or rooted cutting, and wait. The cells of Rootrainersâ„¢ are grooved, encouraging roots to grow straight down and away from the plant instead of spiraling around. This makes for easier transplant and much larger, better-branched root systems!When your plants are ready for transplant, you will see their roots "trained" along the outside of the cell and dangling free at the bottom, just waiting to take off in your garden or container! Endlessly reusable, these trays will save you time and money as you grow larger, healthier plants, with fewer losses from strangled roots, premature transplant, and other pitfalls of traditional indoor seed-starting kits.Compact and easy to store, Rootrainersâ„¢ are just what you need to grow the garden of a lifetime!
