I was givin these clippings and first wanted to know what they are called?
Also I have been told that they need to be dry before putting in the ground.
And also they have been in for a few days now, should I worry about watering them and keeping the ground moist? Would this rott them? Or should I just let them go and hope that they establish their roots?
Thanks
Looks like some type of Yuka...we have similar ones at home and just water them once a fortnight peel of any dead leaves and they seem to go fine.......unlike my lawn
They are yellow plastic trucks.
They don't need water and they wont get rotten that easy.
No idea... don't go in for grassy things so much
My neighbour has some of those, waters on usual retic times. If you want to be real sure, take a leaf, or show a photo to you local nursery... Or, maybe there is a gardening forum... just like this one... with a section called adding the manure; or, spreading the mulch; or, leave it to the experts
Gut feel says keep them moist, particularly as they are cuttings...
Oh, BTW, may need an electrician one day soon
They look like some kind of dracaena. I dont think they need much watering,like you say just let them go. Nice wall by the way.
Pretty sure there technical name is "Takeeoverus Backyardicus".
They are only for fashion victims who have to have the latest "IT" plant
That wall looks familiar, did I see someone riding off it on a skateboard the other day?
^^^ yeah, but he has stuffed it up already ... single plants all along then a double one at the end.
Just doesn't sit together aesthetically
dry em out for a week then plant them out . dont water directly on the base but about a foot around . any that survive will retail for around $20 , so thats $100 saved that you can now spend on sailing gear
sorry for gardening after hours
Yea they are veriagated dracaenas ( dracaena marginata I think). Once they have taken ( 6 months or so )bang the heads off and they'll reshoot additional ones. Pretty much indestructable once established. Give them a little seasol every couple of weeks for the first while then leave them.
No you have it all wrong. I suck at gardening outside. Thats why I asked the questions.
I specialise in the indoor variety.
The kids know not to go in the lounge room because daddy doesnt want his science experiment broken
You can't claim it as yours when all you did was the electrics and made me do all the planting!
