Re: Taking cuttings from a Buddleia

In my locality it's easy - just stick a cutting into the ground and it will root! I use the hedge trimmings as pea sticks in May-June. Most (80%?) will take root. Our soil is permanently moist so you might need to water them in drier parts of the country.

Buddleia grows really well in my garden. i have it coming up in lots of places but none where i want it. as it's so hardy i'm assuming that getting cuttings established should be fairly easy so i'm after tips on the best way to get them started.

any tips gratefully received
