41 f w stux 4fctff j lets get growing keep right on bloomin by marjorie mason kogue correspondent as fall approaches gardeners often wonder if they can keep their hanging baskets and containers blooming in the house over the win- ter moving mature plants indoors is usually a problem reduced light levels and drier air cause leaves to yellow and drop if you have a solarium or greenhouse window it may be worth a try but for most people the answer is to start new plants from cuttings that will over winter happily on your windowsills unfortunately many gardeners are not successful with cuttings because they wait to begin the process until a frost is predicted the time to take cuttings for over wintering is now during the last two weeks of august before night time temperatures cool down and the plants begin the hardening process in anticipation of winter geraniums correctly pelargoni ums make wonderful windowsill plants cuttings taken now will brighten your outlook all winter the following instructions will also work for fuschias impatiens fibrous begonias cbleus vines and even tomatoes 1 select tips of firm but not woody growth about 4 long 2 make a straight cut below a node the place on a stem from which a leaf grows with a sharp knife 3 snip off all the leaves and any flower buds leaving only the termi nal bud growing tip and one fully developed leaf 4 dip the bottom node into root- ing hormone shake off excess 5 stick the cutting firmly into a 2 12 to 3 pot filled with vermi- culite horticultural sand or a mix ture of half soilless mix and half perliote cuttings will root in water but roots are very brittle and will suffer when planted into soil mix 6 water thoroughly and place in a bright but not sunny location if cuttings appear wilted mist fre quently but do not water again until the surface feels dry to the touch maintain high humidity until rooted by covering cuttings with a plastic hood 7 roots should develop in two to three weeks 8 when roots fill the pot trans plant to the next larger size using a commercial potting mix to which some perlite has been added for extra drainage 9 most plants thrive in a bright sunny window at least four hours of direct sun daily at 65 to 70 degrees hy day and 55 to 60 degrees at night 10 allow soil surface to dry slightly between thorough water ings 11 fertilize only when actively growing use a
