Ok so any extra tips welcome. Tonight I took some Dianthus cuttings from a plant my nan planted about 35/40 years ago! And I really hope that i succeed in them re rooting as I don't have anything of hers I can treasure! Ive just removed bottom leaves watered and fed them and put them in my greenhouse! Do you think my chances are good?! ❤️❤️

Yes I do! Monty said the other night with everything closed there's no reason why we can't fill our gardens from cuttings and slips. I so so hope they take for you x look at it this way you planted 26? So at 50% success you'll have 13 new plants x

I think you'll get a good percentage. Let them dry out between watering and don't cover them.

Did you sit them in water until they had roots?
