My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Tree Dahlia Propagation

21 years ago

Someone asked how I grew tree dahlias from cuttings. I usually just lay the stalks cut into 8" - 12" pieces straight into the ground. Within a year you will have one to three tubers attached to a stem.

I had read an article on the web, which I now can't find, that talked about propagation of plants and how to do layering. It said you could cut them into small pieces cover with soil and start them in a flat. I used an old Costco cookie plastic container.

Here is a picture of it with Elvira my assistant helping out. Will post again later to let others know if it worked, if anyone is interested.
