My wife waits until almost spring and just snips off small limbs about 5 to 6%26quot; long and plants them. A sharp pair of pruning sheers is the best thing so the cut is clean.
Can I take grafs off my lilac and plant more, if so, how and what time of year.?
Lilacs are so vigorous that I%26#039;ve seen horticulture students stick a 3%26#039; twig into the ground as a stake for another plant, and it leafed out, rooted and grew! But do it in spring when the shrub is newly leafed out and actively growing - not now.
Reply:Experiment. Take a few cuttings, strip off lower leaves. Place some in clear containers of water, use root hormone on ends of others and put in potting soil.
Reply:Go to the %26quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki%26quot; and under %26quot;Lilac%26quot; , I am pretty sure, you will find something.
