My first ever Osteo plant grown from a cutting.


My first ever Osteo plant grown from a cutting. (Osteospermum jucundum)

I'm so chuffed that I've managed to get two plants to the flowering stage! :-))))

I know other people manage to get Osteos to root easily, but I never have, so I'm feeling very pleased about it. :-))

Well done Spritz, it's lovely when things work out,I'm not verygood with Osteo cuttings but my neighbour is,and she always gives me two or three. I'm good with carnations so I always pass some on to her.Share and share alike.

Isn't it strange. I manage with most cuttings, but I tried to strike at least 20 of these, and got two, maybe three from them.
