Growing your own plants from seeds or cuttings is much easier than you think. The plant propagation techniques that you'll learn in this book are simple to do and easy to learn, and they work incredibly well! If you already have a green thumb you'll love this book. If you don't have a green thumb, be prepared, you are likely to amaze yourself. Finding a beautiful plant and being able to reproduce that plant as many times as you like is a thrilling experience and it can be quite addicting. Since gardening is very therapeutic, that's a good thing. Learning how to propagate your own plants can result in a great deal of savings and/or earnings. Everyone in my family, from nieces and nephews to grandmas and grandpas, spent some time dabbling in our nursery. Our two sons learned work ethics and the value of a dollar. They also learned to appreciate, and at times be awed by, nature. It took me 35 years of crawling around in the dirt on my hands and knees to learn what I share with you in this book. Reflecting on those years I cannot think of a more rewarding way to spend the better part of my life. It is my sincere hope that you share what you learn in this book with the children in your life. Kids love to garden, and there is no better way to spend quality time with a child than teaching them how to garden. Plants are the heartbeat of the earth. If we can teach kids how to propagate plants, care for them, and admire and respect the plants of this planet, you and I will leave this earth in very capable hands. Jump in, get dirty! Get lost in the magic of plant propagation.

This is the best propagation book I have bought. It's easy to read, the directions are easy to follow, and I can't wait until I have more room to expand!

I expected to learn more details on propagation methods . I guess a beginner would benefit better . I have done propagation different ways .. the method of sand and a plastic bag did work , but not for tree propagation that I was trying, Japanese maple . I’ll have to wait for the seed off the tree. Still there were good ideas in the book , for anyone not experienced in the method , it would be fine to use. I did grow ivy well in the sand tented method.

5.0 out of 5 stars The gardener's wife...
Reviewed in the United States on September 25, 2009
Verified Purchase
My husband has always been the landscape and gardening lover, but both of us have come to love Mike McGroarty's tips on everything to do with plants.
I bought this book for him as he is suddenly attempting to start his own landscape and flowering plants instead of buying them. This is enough to get me interested. Since reading the book, he is more excited than ever, 'layering, and rooting, and saving seeds from everything'. Besides saving money, he takes a lot of pride in doing this creative thing. If you love plants and hate buying them... this book is for you.

3.0 out of 5 stars It's an "ok" book...
Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2013
Verified Purchase
Good book, the propagation information he covers is common knowledge for those with some plant knowledge. His insight into patented or trademarked plants, and old strains that anyone could propagate makes it worth the buy.

The only thing that annoys me about this book? He keeps citing or pointing to his website. The information is more detailed on his website, but I bought the book to be able to read the information without going online or having a computer with me.

5.0 out of 5 stars It really is about Easy Plant Propagation
Reviewed in the United States on August 11, 2017

If you need an easy to read book on the subject, this book is as described!! Seriously, if you are new to plant propagation, it's all in here. All you need to do is just get out there. I've been snipping here and there, collecting cuttings from all over just to see what works. This book will give you the confidence to start plants from cuttings, division, layering - even basic grafting procedures are shown.

If you want to learn all about plant propagation, this is the perfect book! All details are easy to understand and grasp because it is in everyday language and not technical mumbo jumbo. If you can't learn to propagate after reading this book then you have been and still are locked in a room with no windows or doors!
