Here is a simple method of taking cutting from your favourite tree or shrub.
Peter started gardening at a very young age on his father’s allotment of land from the local council. The duties of maintenance, appreciation of the growth cycle, and very importantly, an aesthetic awareness were planted in him. His father often grew flowers among the vegetables for feeding the family.
I am often asked about my favourite flower. Take a look at these from my garden and you can see that pretty much all of them are my favourites. I have found that throughout the years I tend to tire of some flowers as I find more exciting or interesting ones to replace them. It is a form of maturation.
SOME EXAMPLES OF GARDEN EFFORTS ,
I feel very strongly that “Garden design” as practiced by many conforms to accepted methods and tastes. The text books are fine but unfortunately few of us life textbook lives. Our gardens should reflect “us”, our tastes, styles and be our comfort zones away from the world. I Have found that many people find it difficult to envisage what might take place in their garden makeovers, therefor I always recommend phasing in any changes. Let your tastes affect your changes. In your garden you can do wrong. Nature will let you know if you should rethink something.
Make no mistake, gardening is a disease and is not easily cured.
