Hey everyone, it's Gardening with Ben here
0:03
Well, if you remember early on in the year, I took some cuttings from one of my salvias
0:09
I thought I'll try it, hopefully get some free plants from it
0:13
I'd never taken cuttings before, especially from a salvia. So we thought, we'll give it a try, we'll cut some off
0:19
and stick it in some soil and see if they'll actually grow
0:23
So let's have a look at the mother plant that I took the cuttings from
0:28
So this is the mother plant that I took the cuttings from. As you can see, it's nicely bushed out now
0:33
I might even get some more cuttings from it because, yeah, why not
0:38
Because it's filled a nice area. And hopefully the bees will love it as well if we have some more of these around
0:44
And as you can see, they're flowering really nice. It's still October and they're still flowering
0:50
So yeah, we might actually try taking some more cuttings of this
0:54
So let's have a look at us cuttings and see how well they're actually growing. So as you can see, these are the cuttings
1:01
And yeah, they are taking, they have taken root. They're growing and they've got flowers on them
1:06
Maybe I should chop the flowers off them to concentrate on growing the plant rather than growing the flowers on them
1:12
So yeah, we've done well with success. We've got some plants. They need a little water
1:17
They've dried out. But yeah, we're going to get them watered. And yeah, let me know in the comments when I should plant these out
1:24
Should I plant them out next year or plant them out now? now ready for next year because I don't want to get killed off with the cold and the frost but let me know in the comments below
1:34
