ABOUT THE AUTHOR
HILTON CARTER IS PASSIONATE ABOUT PROPAGATING PLANTS AND IN THE PROPAGATION HANDBOOK, HE EQUIPS READERS WITH THE KNOWLEDGE AND TOOLS NECESSARY TO GROW A BRAND-NEW PLANT FROM AN EXISTING ONE.

TAKING A CUTTING FROM A BELOVED PLANT CAN SEEM DAUNTING, BUT HILTON DEMYSTIFIES THE ENTIRE PROCESS. HE ADDRESSES FAQS SUCH AS: WHERE IS THE BEST PLACE ON A PLANT TO MAKE A CUT? DO YOU IMMEDIATELY PLACE THE CUTTING IN REGULAR WATER? HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE FOR A CUTTING TO GROW ROOTS? AND MUCH MORE, AND PRESENTS A WEALTH OF EASY-TO-IMPLEMENT GUIDELINES TO GET READERS GROWING.
