    I have a 2 yr old (it’s been in the house for 2 yrs but outside in summer for 3 months)red flower hibiscus plant. I would like to plant in the ground. I live in Portland Or. Will it survive the winter if I put it close to the house and out of the weather?

      Brenda,

      Lots of hibiscus do fine outside all winter. Some are tropical. My advice is to get a hardy hibiscus, like the large dinner plate hibiscus.

    Sounds like a doable project. My question is can you use this method for other bushes besides forsythia?

    I love learning your gardening stuff! I haven’t gardened in years, and am getting back to it now. I need all the help I can get – especially since my soil is solid clay. Sooo hard to work with! You are a great help. Thanks!

    PROPOGATING IS A GREAT DEAL OF FUN ! ALSO INCREASES THE AMOUNT OF “FREE”PLANTS SO TO SPEAK. DON’T LET IT SCARE YOU , START OFF SLOW AND WILL DO IT.. MY FAVORATE SAYING IS ” IMAGINATION IS MORE POWERFUL THAN KNOWLEDGE”

    Can you start a Viburnum the same way as you did this Forsythia? Thanks for all the tips; I bought the Action Hoe and just love it!
