Today we have Karon teaching us how to propagate Carnations.
She begins by filling a plastic bottle (which has been cut in half) with some good-quality soil. Karon continues to snip the stem below one node and above the next along the stem. Now to do the next step you can either use honey or root compound. If you're using a rooting compound you must first dip the stem in water in order to pick up the powder (with honey there's no need to do so). Then make a hole in your soil for the stem to sit in. Spray the contents of the hothouse with water to allow condensation when the lid is on.
The next step is to wait for roots to grow and replant in your garden.
We would love to see how your Carnations turn out so make sure to post on Facebook and Instagram and tag us @westridgeflorist :)
