Super Easy Summer Cuttings

Propagating your own plants was never easier! Here are a few warm weather plants that will root from cuttings stuck directly in the ground:

Ageratum
Coleus
Fuchsia
Dahlia
Impatiens
Wax begonia
Geranium
Iceplant
Felicias

All you have to do is take a 2 to 4 inch (5 - 10 cm) cutting, strip any flowers and most of the foliage off, leaving just a few leaves on top.

Then insert them directly into loose soil where they are to grow.

Keep them moist until they establish. Moist, not soaked, otherwise you will rot them!

That's it.
