This is the Cuttings frame. It is empty at present as I have not actually begun taking cuttings yet. I may not do many this year as I have very little room left for successful strikes. We shall see.

All plunged in sand so that they do not dry out too quickly.
Thanks for that, Eric!! :D
wow it looks vast! You seem to have some lovely plants on the go. Looking forward to summer!
Enjoyed that thank you.
June.
Could you by any chance be suffering condition called..Rockeryplantidum obsessium ;)..looks great...I bet you spend 'few' selected hours in week looking after that lot....
I'm green with envy, they are so lovely :)
I think your greenhouse is bigger than my garden :)
That greenhouse is 16 feet by 6.
Beautiful
Its rather like Tim,s it has two time zones 2 o,clock at the front and 4 o,clack at the back
A fabulous trip as always Eric :-*
wow fantastic greenhouse, im a newbie and am having to deal with a little plastic 6x4 one lol not easy considering i have big plans hahaha. Maybe next year i can go all out and get a 6x8 lol.
I think it should be called an alpine house, not a common greenhouse!
A wonderful collection Eric.
Ninny
Wonderful ;D
Eric, you never fail to surprise & impress. Lovely as usual i bet that lot keeps you busy. Thanks for showing.
You have spurred me on. My greenhouse is full of empty seed trays, pots and old compost bags at this time of year. I will be out in my garden tomorrow taking cuttings, roots and seeds. I am ashamed of myself. Keep up the good work.
Absolutely gorgeous! I could happily spend all day in there! Thanks for showing.
