Title: Storm Damage!
Post by: springbok on June 19, 2008, 06:34:47
Last night we had terrible storms and this morning noticed many plants snapped in half.

My geraniums are broken too, but somewhere on here I read that you can do cuttings with them.  I cant save the whole plant, but was wondering if the snapped parts could be used.  Can anyone please explain how I do  a geranium cutting?

Thank you

There are a lot of plants in the 'geranium' family.

Cuttings are usually taken deliberately from side shoots and should not have a lot of leaves on.

I think that you will find that after you have tidied them up the best you can that they will recover.
