More plants for free from what you already have. Cuttings, division, and seed sowing carried out at exactly the right time for the best results.
One of the most satisfying things in gardening is getting more plants for free. Across South East London, most established gardens are sitting on a goldmine: mature perennials ready to divide, shrubs that will root from a cutting, and plants setting seed that can fill gaps across the border.
Plant propagation is included in our 3-hour garden maintenance sessions. Your gardener Josh takes cuttings, divides established clumps, and sows seed from existing plants, always at exactly the right time of year for the best results. Softwood cuttings in early summer, hardwood cuttings in winter, division in autumn and spring.
The new plants are exact genetic copies of the originals. The same colour, the same habit, the same character. Proven performers that you already know thrive in your garden. Fill gaps in the border, extend a planting scheme, or give plants to friends. All for free.
Fill gaps in the border, extend a scheme, or give plants away, all from what you already have. Cuttings and division cost nothing but time and expertise.
Propagated plants are exact genetic copies of the parent. The same colour, the same habit, the same proven ability to thrive in your garden's specific conditions.
Propagation only works when the timing is right. Division in autumn and spring. Softwood cuttings in early summer. Hardwood in winter. We always propagate at the right moment.
A mature garden rarely needs new plants from the garden centre. It usually just needs the right ones, moved to the right place at the right time. We find those opportunities in every garden we visit.
Plant propagation is part of what your maintenance session delivers. No extra cost, no separate booking. We spot the opportunities and act on them during your regular visit.
Softwood cuttings in early summer for perennials and tender shrubs. Hardwood cuttings in winter for roses, shrubs, and woody plants. Clean cuts, correct preparation, potted and labelled.
Established perennial clumps divided in autumn and spring. Revitalises the parent plant and produces multiple new ones. Exact genetic copies, planted where they are needed most.
Collecting and sowing seed from existing plants at the right time and in the right conditions for your garden. Free plants from what you already have.

We look at the border as a whole and identify where new plants would have the most impact. Propagation as part of a wider planting strategy, not just an ad hoc activity.
