Cuttings Afternoon - 23rd October, 2.00pm


The Cuttings Afternoon will be held at Nicholas & Carmel Ryan's house.

This is a great time to be taking cuttings to increase your plant stock or to grow plants for sale at our Plant Sale in May next year.
The list of plants that can be propagated from cuttings is endless, roses, lavender, hydrangeas, fuschias, penstemon, pelargoniums, osteospermum, coleus.
Some of our 'expert' members will be on hand to show you how to take cuttings, prepare them, plant them and look after them.
These afternoons are great social occasions, why not come along and have a go!

We are planning to hold our annual "Cutting Afternoon" sometime in mid October. this is a great opportunity to learn how to take cuttings and care for them. In previous years this event has proved to be very popular so we will set the venue when we have a better indication of likely numbers of people attending. Members who are interested in attending, please phone Eamonn on 053 9376908 before 7.00pm (Eamonn goes to bed when it goes dark so he can be up at first light to get out into the garden) Alternatively you can email him ritaeam@gmail.com
