🌱Growing Plants by Seed or Cuttings - Which is Better🌱
Episode 847
Ken Lain, the Top 10 Gardener, here! Ever wonder how plants are grown?
There are two main ways: seeds and cuttings. While seeds are a cheaper way to grow plants, they don't always produce consistent results. It's like a box of chocolates – you never know what you're gonna get!
Cuttings, on the other hand, are clones of the parent plant. This means you get the exact same characteristics, which is great for hedges, specimen plants, and fruit trees. 🌳
Imagine planting an apple tree from seed, only to find out years later that the apples are small and sour. Not ideal, right? That's why grafting, a form of taking cuttings, is so important for fruit trees. It ensures you get the delicious apples you crave. 🍎
At Watters Garden Center, we focus on providing high-quality plants grown from cuttings. This ensures consistency and beauty in your garden. Plus, we can even control things like allergies by selecting specific varieties.
So next time you're choosing plants, consider whether they were grown from seed or cuttings. It can make a big difference in the long run!
