The REXAIX Store Democrat Ads Pay Set Out Cuttings To t Start New Shrubbery ; E Winter and spring months offer \ the home gardener a good opportunity to enhance the beauty of the heme grounds by propagating more shrubs and flowering plants. ^ One of the most popular ways of / propagating deciduous shrubs is setting out cuttings of stems six to jeight inches long, said J. C. Weaver, i floriculturist at State College. t The wood of last season's growth should be taken during the fall, winter, or spring months, he said. Be sure that alt twigs taken arc alive, and do not cut too close to a buu. When the cuttings are made in winter, Weaver advised that they be stored in a cool cellar in damp sand ^ or peat. Or they may be buried outdoors in well drained sand. As soon as the soil is in good workable condition in the spring, the cut- I * tings may l>e set out in the garden j in rows IS inches apart, with the j * cuttings four inches apart in the I row. !? This next fall, after the cuttings . have grown a little, transplant them! lo a place where the spacing is wid-p er, 30 they may develop into a crrwi t ? ? ovv%* shape before they are set around the house. Evergreen shrubs arc a little harder to propagate, but the home gar-1 dener can do it with a little care, iWeaver said. * In the fall, or early winter where i the climate is mild, set out evergreen cuttings five to seven inches long. Do not remove any more foliage than necessary to insert the lower end into the sand bed. Set them in rows four inches apart, q with the twigs two to row four inches apart in the row. Shade them with laths or burlap during the following summer. They often require 12 to 18 months to develop roots so they can _ be transplanted.
