I have several plants of this variety, all grown from cuttings given to me by a friend 5 years ago.

I just turned green Spritz.

Beautiful plant, tried a few cuttings myself and for a novice have done very well with them.

This is a real beauty Spritz....I successfully rooted cuttings of 'plum jerkum'.....:>)

Well done! Did you both root them in water or in compost?
19 Oct, 2010
have just put some of my potted ones in the soil left some in pots
19 Oct, 2010
I think they do better in the soil, to be honest. :-)

may put the lot in then .

Yes - and they'd be safer for the winter, too.

Rooted them in ordinary garden soil in small pots and have just passed them on to my sister for her garden. Am I pround of myself - oh yes!!

You're right to be, Bell. I don't succeed in compost, which is why I pop them in water. That usually works for me!

As long as it works Spritz, that's the only thing that matters eh!
