Currant sticks wanted, swapsies?

[Llamas]

I'm longing for some red and white currants, trained into smart cordons to help with the glare off the blindingly white render on our cottage. Might anyone have a stick or two to spare? I'd happily pay for postage of course, and I have seeds and cuttings of my own to offer.

Rooted salvia 'Amistad'
Rooted nepeta racemosa 'Walkers Low'

Seeds: an embarrassingly overstuffed drawer-full. Just ask.

Auriculas: a few little teeny plant-lets of show fancy, alpines and borders. Seeds from named varieties from W & S Lockyer.

Sorry can't offer you any but I wonder whether this is the best time of year for cuttings. I think the root better as hardwood cuttings in the late autumn. Someone else might know better.

[roitelet]

Yes, late autumn is the best time although I have taken cuttings in the spring.

[Llamas]

I completely agree but only just thought of it now, so I thought I'd aim low and have a go. Like most I imagine, I've had both great successes with propagating outside the set season and failures when attempting within, so I'm almost always willing to have a try.

have a look at your local aldi and lidl stores as our one was selling currants when i was in there, and not dear..

Hello Llamas,
I've got rooted cuttings of white, red and pink currants, various varieties. I don't know how to send PMs but if you're interested, drop me a line and we can sort something out.
