Brunnera 'jack frost'

Do you cut this right back after it has flowered Motinot? I do, it always looks great at this time of year.

I only planted it late Spring this year Scottish, but i was advised to cut it back....:>)

Very easy to get cuttings from. I started of with 1 plant...have many now and have furnished many other gardens.
In fact a neighbour asked me this morning what it was as she would like to get some, I just stuck my trowel in and gave her a big handful with roots. Probably not the recommended way of doing it but it always works for me :)

Oooer I didn't know about cutting it back, I bought one first time this year, do I cut it all the way back to the floor then please. How do I take cuttings which part please Scottish, you have set me off now, I bought two one same as this the other one something like Hapsden Cream, I think, hopeless memory, will have to look at labels, if they are still on them.

Oh, I didn't know about cutting them back either (thanks Scottish)! I'm always learning stuff on GoY - thank you Moti. :-)

Cut them right back to the ground, there will be new growth underneath already. Within 1-2 weeks it will be back good as new. Sometimes you get flowers, and sometimes not, but the foliage looks great and the slugs hate it!!!
I don't know the official/technical way too take cuttings -but this is what I do. I stick the trowel in so I remove a bit of the plant with roots, if you move the leaves with your fingers you can easy see where to dig. I put soil back in the hole I have created and give it a good water. The bunch I have, I stick in the ground or in a pot and keep watered until I know it has taken. I think I must have had around 30 cuttings of 1 plant in the last 3 years. Good value for money :) If you are unsure, let me know and I can take a couple of pictures as I need to split a bit anyway.
All the perfectionists and professional gardeners have probably just read this with a grimace on their face :))

If it works for you Scottish, then thats all that matters...Root cuttings can also be taken....:>)

Thank you Scottish, thank you Moti. Will give the root cutting a go and the split it up way even if the professionals don't do it that way, I am happy to get freebies any day. lol. thank you both.

You're most welcome Olive...good luck...:>)

You are welcome Olive, let us know how you get on :)

Do I split it now Scottish or wait till back end of year?

I think Autumn would be a good time Olive, while the ground is still warm...I think Scottish slices a piece off with a trowel and leaves the parent plant in situ...sounds a safer bet doesn't it?:>)

Think it does Moti. I am always afraid of chopping though, do not want to kill the parent plant off. lol.

i know lol

You made it sound so much easier than I did Motinot, why didn't I just say slice of parent plant. I'll remember that in future.
I've found this plant is pretty indistructible Oliveoil :)

Oh that is probably a good thing with me then Scottish. lol.
