Most every spring after the wood on the new shoots has set (hardened off a bit), I just go through and tidy up my beds, and cut back any bits that are a bit too high or too thick. Then using some old yogurt cups (with holes drilled in bottom), potting soil, and rooting hormone, I root them all up. They root easily and before long you're got more plants to expand your bed and swap with friends. You should be able to double a bed each year if you're really working it.

Also, don't just work the soil in spots and drop the plants in. If you work up and amend the whole bed and really loosen up the soil, they're spread underground pretty quickly as well. So even if you put new plants maybe every foot, they'll fill in nicely in a year or so.

They root easy - I don't think I've ever had a Pacysandra cutting not take.

Thanks Cris,

My dad and I potted some up yesterday. We mixed some garden soil and sand 50/50. Didn't use the hormone
