I was moving my starts left from last season so I could bottle up my 72 cuttings from this year. Guess what I found? A rooted Sherry with your name on it. No need to bring your cutters. LOL

Bill,
You are too generous and kind...THANK YOU!!! The only one issue is my patch is in chaos as I moved a bunch of pots 30gal/40gal out of the way during my Mango tree move and have not re-organized them since...(looks like a bomb went off with broken branches and tips still on the ground also). I have a Donald Angus carcass I pulled out of the ground

and a 10ft Emmerson Pink Nova in a pot laying on the front lawn, was in a 5 gal that has been sunken in the ground for about 7 yrs,

potted plumies leaning on the gutter of the Apt building for support as I did not organize or put anything back (these pics were taken before I left the last visit). I havent watered the side plumies since the last rain. I keep on planning on going down to the patch but have not been able to since over a week ago. So thank you for thinking of me and the offer but I can not bring anything into the patch right now until I organize, prune and finish my repotting (god knows when ?). I am also going to get rid of the remaining grass @ the complex(already had Weed & Feed laid down to see how much grass would be left, only like 30%), so because of the drought might just hard scape and install pavers over the area to put potted plumies on. You know how it is to be out of space and overflowing with pots of plants. So THANK YOU for your kindness and generosity and thinking of me!

I put labels on the cuttings with painter's as they are cut and the best 35 got dipped in rooting compound and wrapped with saran wrap. The rest got labels but no wrap. two weeks later, I get three, 2-gallon watering cans without tips filled with water and superthrive, B-1 and Seaweed Extract. I bring out bags with pre cut water bottles that I do while watching tv. I get out a 33 gallon trash can filled with soil and a big scoop. I bring in 5 gallon pots with gravel in the bottom from last year. I fill up 5 bottles half full of soil mix. From this point on I can do five or six bottles per 5 gallon pot in about 10 minutes. I water all five on the lawn and move to the next 5. After 20 cuttings (4 pots of 5 bottles) I move to car oil trays on the cement and then start the next 20. The prep and set up takes the time but the actual planting is very quick. I can plant 25 cuttings in the time it takes to dig and plant one large plant. I have this system wired.
