It makes the whole recycling, reuse thing even more appealing. I try to start my own seedings, but still the soil and seed cups can add up $$ with the larger gardens. I'm still saving my larger cardboard boxes for covering the grass between the garden beds then covering that with pine bark or some other inexpensive mulch. Last summer mowing between the garden beds was really hard.
Yeah!
I’ve had my ups and downs. Tried for 4-5 years before Jan of 2016 when I finally got lucky and had two live a full year. So I brought back 4 that year and managed to kill all but one from the previous year
I know what my mistake was though so this year when no one else seemed interested in them I figured lots in numbers can’t hurt. Honestly they aren’t as tricky as people say.
Very nice pointsettias. I have one that is around 10 years old. I have propagated 5 "babies" from it. It's really easy. Just snip off a branch and put it in water until roots appear. Then plant in dirt. They prefer to be watered from the bottom, however I have been able to water from the top without much trouble. Good luck with your beauties.
