About the Book

Not so many years ago, everyone who had a garden propagated their own plants. Nowadays, we are more inclined to nip down to the garden centre to buy anything from tiny cells of bedding plants to 3-metre climbers, but, in fact, most of the plants we grow in our gardens can be propagated with ease. Some of the techniques are almost foolproof, even for complete beginners; others are a bit more tricky, but all are readily achievable for the amateur gardener prepared to have a go, accept the occasional failure and revel in the triumphs. In addition to the techniques themselves, John gives detailed guidance on plant hygiene, temperature and humidity, timing and how to look after your newborn plants until they are ready to go out into the garden and fend for themselves. "How to Propagate" is a long overdue bible on propagation that will be indispensable to beginners and committed enthusiasts alike.

He is the presenter of BBC-TV's The Greenmount Garden (with a second series recently commissioned) and writes for the Daily Telegraph, Ireland's Homes, Interior and Living and Gardeners' World.
