Using a Electric Windowsill Propagator
As your GardenAdvice MyGardenTeam service gardener has no doubt told you, to grow your own shrubs and perennial plants from cuttings is easy, which if true is you have several years of experience taking cuttings and some formal horticultural training also helps.
If you are just starting as a gardener using a windowsill propagator is a great tool and increases your chances of success in rooting your cuttings.
Windowsill propagators provide a low gentle heat that speeds up the rooting process.
Using softwood cuttings, semi-ripe cuttings and hardwood cuttings from garden shrubs such as weigela, Cornus, Buxus, hydrangea and many other shrubs. In addition, you can also propagate many perennial plants from softwood cutting such as penstemon, salvia, and asters.
It’s important to use an open compost of rooting media such as John Iness compost number one with some added sand or horticultural sliver or washed sand. Because the compost or sand has an open texture combined with the heat it will dry out quickly so need frequent watering.
