WBkfi. • Now is the time to take stem cuttings from many of your favorite plants and bring them indoors for the winter. Of course, you'111 have to give plants adequate direct sun, even on the shortest winter days. A south-facing window is ideal for plants you’re bringing in for winter, and eastern exposure is also good if it is totally unobstructed. Flowering plants require southern tiens, browallia and wax begonia can do quite well even in western windows. General guidelines for taking cuttings are to measure four- to six-inch lengths of new growth with at least three sets of leaves; pinch off buds or flowers. Best rooting media — coqibinations of peat and sand, or ver- miculite and perlite, or vermiculite by itself. Use three-inch pots, moisten the planting material, pinch off the very bottom leaves of the cuttings and insert them into the material up to their bottom-most leaves. Within the three-week rooting period, you’ll want to keep these cut ting pots in a cold frame or in the shade outdoors — and it’s essential to keep them moist as well as cool. As soon as they have rooted — tug lightly at stems to see if they resist — you’ll want to start giving the plants a water-soluble fertilizer every week for about three weeks more. When they are in full growth, transfer them to four-inch m a sunny wmaow. GlammrTMkiiy JfW I (y O Dress for your own comfort and don't try to o outdo anyone.
