  1. Dendrobium orchids have one of my favorite propagation techniques: you can take a dendrobium "stick" with no roots, set it on the forest floor, forget about it, check it much later, and it might have a keiki!

    Some nuance: as you might be able to tell from the video, it's not *completely* on the forest floor. It's balanced across a pot, so it's lifted a bit off the ground. It's also in the shade, and I covered some of the nodes with leaves, to protect from the sun, and encourage it to root. In short, I tried to mimic "a piece of a dendrobium (that lives in a tree) fell off and landed lower in the canopy. Then, over time, leaves and other growth settled around it."

    FYI, I didn't invent this technique. I saw it in a YouTube.

  6. Next up. Blooms & buds from plants that I propagated from cuttings & root splitting.

    2 different roses - both propagated from Jubilee Hospital gardens cuttings, 3 years ago.
    Yucca flower buds - from helping a former neighbour, when I lived in Cedar, split up their overgrown yucca plant. I put several in front of my old place (for future tenants to enjoy) & brought some back to plant here. That was in May of 2019. They just started to flower, this year.

  11. Several coronal mass ejections are expected to impact the Earth within the next 24-48 hours, possibly resulting in significant geomagnetic activity and visible auroras in far southern Victoria and Tasmania during local nighttime hours. Aurora alerts will follow if significant geomagnetic activity actually occurs.

  16. This weekend's haul wasn't too bad for how terrible conditions were. Propagation was pretty horrible, but still managed about 50 contacts. Can the sun please chill out a bit?

  24. Several weeks ago, I’ve made a makeshift greenhouse/coldFrame to propagate plants and germinate grape tomato and some wildflower seeds. It looks like lilac and viburnum cuttings are doing ok so far.

    (That’s TristanSparrow on the lemon tree, btw ;)

  29. Few gardening pictures. First one has some cuttings that I struck tonight, from top Thymus sp. Ex. Turkey, Hylotelephium, Savoury and Sedum (Hispanicum or Acre not aureum). Second picture is to illustrate wire mesh that is necessary to prevent Squirrels and co nibbling fruit saplings. Sheffield Fruit Trees (who should establish a Fediverse presence IMO) said on Instagram that they were having Badger issues so having to upgrade barriers. #propagation #satureja #hylotelephium #sedum
