The propagation handbook : a guide to propagating houseplants / Hilton Carter.

Carter, Hilton, 1979- (author.).

Summary:

Not only a plant lover, Hilton is passionate about propagation, the process of growing a brand new healthy and happy plant from part of an existing one. In this, his fifth book, Hilton talks us through the process of propagation and explains all the necessary techniques, from the very simplest to more complex methods, such as air layering and grafting. He describes exactly which method to use for different types of plant, and lists the tools essential for the process. In Hilton's own words: "You hear so much about plant 'parenthood', but knowing how to propagate and then watching as your little plant takes shape and develops into a full-grown plant is the very definition of this.
