Sharing the Herb Garden

My girl friends wanted some of my rosemary. Today I began the rooting process. I am hoping to give them this gift in 2 weeks.

You will need: potting soil, some small pots, any woody plant you want to root and rooting hormone.

1st cut 6 inch lengths of rosemary sprigs and place in a cup of water.
2nd prepare moist potting soil in small potters. Use a thin stick to poke a hole into the soil.
3rd pinch off the leaves from the base to 4 inches. Dip in rooting hormone and stick into hole. Water a little and Voila!

Keep in a cool place under some lighting. Water when the soil looks dry, but not dried out.

This system works well for any woody plant.
