You have seen our Admiral Semmes Confederate Azaleas, of which one has been rooted by husband Pieter himself. Gardening on a scale like we do, is asking for quite a large budget and this way you can easily multiply the beauties you already got! Give it a try at home. Now is the TIME!
Saved from a Southern Living Magazine I had this page with Easy tips by Steve Bender.
Maybe some of you would love to know this or try out yourself.

Liebe Mariette,
ReplyDeletedas habe ich nicht gewusst, dass man Azaleen per Stecklinge vermehren kann. Vielleicht versuche ich es einmal, denn ich habe ein prächtiges Exemplar draußen im Topf, das jedes Jahr ein bisschen geschnitten wird. Danke für den Tipp.
Liebe Grüße, Johanna
Liebe Mariette,
ReplyDeletePRACHTVOLL!
Alles Liebe

Dear Mariette,it sounds very interesting!I dont have azaleas but i like them so much!
ReplyDeleteWishing you a lovely day!Hugs!
Dimi...
Ik heb een Azalea die een onbedwingbare aantrekkingskracht had op mijn nieuwe poes. Toen ze net bij ons was heeft ze hem helemaal gekortwiekt. Elke ochtend vond ik de takjes op de vensterbank naast de pot liggen. Gek genoeg is hij daarna heel goed gaan groeien en bloeien, ze heeft blijkbaar groene "pootjes"....
ReplyDeleteGeen gemakkelijk karweitje, wel leuk zeg! En wat een mooie foto bovenaan van jullie huis!

grazie per il prezioso consiglio, un abbraccio grande Lory
ReplyDeleteLieve Mariette,
ReplyDeleteLang geleden was ik ook wel eens in de weer met planten stekken en stekpoeder en zo.....
maar door gebrek aan ruimte in huis en tuin ben ik er mee gestopt.
Planten die ik mooi vind koop ik wel bij kweekerij.
En Azalia's vind ik wel mooi in grote tuin met statig huis,maar niet in mijn ''landelijke'' stadstuintje.
Fijne dag en liefs,Ger
Taking cuttings is a very satisfying thing to do. It does help a lot with the budget as well.
ReplyDeleteHugs Kay
Great to know! Thanks Mariette XO
ReplyDeleteHi dear! Loved your space here!
ReplyDeletexoxo :)))
Interesting
ReplyDeleteLiebe Mariette,
ReplyDeletedanke für die Hinweise. Ich habe bislang so etwas
noch nicht gemacht. Es ist aber einen Versuch wert.
Einen schönen Wochenteiler wünscht dir
Irmi
Dear Mariette,
ReplyDeleteHave never tried with Azaleas but have done hydrangeas. Thanks for sharing
Hope you are enjoying the week
Hugs

For many many years, I have been saving pages and even whole gardening magazines with precious instructions, but as one can find anything on the web nowadays, I am presently getting rid of the old paper. As for the azaleas, I have been trying for years, but the do not thrive in my area. I still love them a lot!!!!
ReplyDeleteMany many hugs!!!
lieve Mariette .
ReplyDeleteleuk om te weten hoe je ze kan stekken..
helaas doen de azaleas het niet goed bij mij ...
veel liefs
Questa sì che è un'dea,Mariette cara. Ma tu hai provato? le azalee e i rododendri sono tra i pochi cespugli fioriti che crescono bene nel mio giardino (nord Italia) però non ci ho mai pensato .
ReplyDeleteSeguendo queste chiare istruzioni però..... Grazie cara, ottimo suggerimento!
un bacio

ReplyDeleteHugs :)
I love Azaleas are so beautiful! Enchant my eyes!
ReplyDeleteDear Mariette, they are so lovely. Interesting - new to me... Love my flowers too. Big hugs dear
ReplyDeleteGrazie Mariette. I always admire your green thumb and your knowledge about plants.
