    This video came just at the right time. My daughter wants to put some delphiniums in her new garden. It was too late to divide mine but cuttings will work perfect. I never new about using honey. Thanks for all the tips Alana.

      Good morning Shelley! Thank you very much for your kind words!
      I'm glad your daughter will be able to enjoy some delphiniums in her garden this year! Also, honey has been a great rooting hormone for me...and it's always on hand too! 😊

    Delphinium and larkspur seeds need to be very fresh, as in sow the same year as you harvest the seed

      Yes, it works very well! It's a handy one to use for us, since we never seem to be short of honey! 😄🐝

      Good morning Francis! Thank you very much for watching and for your kind message! I hope you are having great weather there in the U.K and not too much rain...we have had a fair bit of it lately, but I suppose it's better than too dry! 🌻 Take care and have a lovely day!

    Hey Alana!! Do all herbs come back every year? Can you do a vid on how to trim and let seeds fall off etc? Parsley, basil. Etc. And is it true you can cut a tomato in half and plant it? Again make vids for these if ya want i can wait! Your the best! Thanks for all the info!!

    • @alanacawker-therusticwife
      @alanacawker-therusticwife  3 года назад +1

      Hi Ralph!! Not all herbs are perennials but some are! For instance, mint, lemon balm (which is part of the mint family), sage , thyme, oregano, chives etc....these ones come back year after year. Some herbs are considered to be annuals and have to be replanted each season. Some of them will also self seed, which means, they will drop their seeds and grow back tiny little seedlings the following season. Hope that helps!
      Also, I have never done the tomato trick but I'm sure it would work as it is full of tiny seeds. I find so many tomato seedlings growing each year in my garden (or compost pile) where tomatoes dropped on the ground and rotted, then the seeds will germinate in the right conditions. If you plan on saving your tomato seeds, I would consider soaking the seeds in water first for a few days. This process will "ferment" the gel casing that is around the tomato seed, once that gel has been removed, dry your seeds completely on a plate, and store them in an envelope or jar until you are ready to plant them. I will definitely make these videos for you during the season!
      Have a great day my friend! 😊🍅🌱

    So can you not cut the thicker ones underground and have it root still? Wouldn't it make sense that it's larger and has more stored energy to grow a new plant? At what point are they too big to take cuttings from?

  • @mckenna796
    @mckenna796 2 года назад

    Enjoyed your video. I’m going to try it. Question: do your stake your delphinium? Mine, after it rained, it flopped over with weight of flower itself and nearly broke the stalk in two? Thanks.

    • @alanacawker-therusticwife
      @alanacawker-therusticwife  Год назад

      Hi McKenna...I am so sorry I missed this comment and it has taken so long to reply! We do stake our delphiniums as we have the same issue. It's hard to find long enough stakes as they can get quite tall. These flowers are so lovely but definitely very top heavy and precarious during a rain storm. I usually have a tall stake and weave some string around all of the blooms...it looks like a spider web but it keeps them upright. Thank you so much for watching and I hope you have a great evening!

    @amiela72 Год назад

    Hi! Im new to your channel. Thanks for very informative vid about delphinium. I will try it. How long should you keep those plastic covers? Does it need to be air tight? Should the plastic be away (not touching) from touching any part of the plant?

    • @alanacawker-therusticwife
      @alanacawker-therusticwife  Год назад +3

      Hi Amelia! Thank you very much for watching and also for your kind message! I kept the plastic covers on for about 2 weeks and it's okay if the plastic is touching the leaves, I didn't find that it caused any rot or anything of the sort (although, I tried to keep the cover fairly loose around the foliage). Also, I tucked the covers around the bottom of the pots but they weren't completely airtight...kind of a rough job really! 😃I hope that helps...take care and have a great day!

    Hello. I'm new to your channel. How did the cuttings turn out? All survive and take root?

    • @alanacawker-therusticwife
      @alanacawker-therusticwife  2 года назад +1

      Hi there! I am really sorry for the delay answering your question...I had to take a short break. First of all, thank you very much for visiting my channel, I really appreciate the support. I had luck with the cuttings...I think I started with 12 and ended up with 9. The stems rotted on 3 of them so I had to toss those ones out. They likely got too much moisture which is something that I warned about in the video so I should have taken my own advice! 😄 Have a great evening!

    Do you think if I grow cuttings in September and get them in the ground a month before the snow that they would survive?

      I’m in ONT. And mine don’t…BUT last yr. I took in some small seedlings from the fall and they barely grew all winter, looked spindly and pathetic on window ledge and now are surpassing the ones in garden from last year! (I planted them end of may)… I didn’t know if they would take for several weeks, but now near the end of June they are the healthiest plants in the Delph. garden.
