Hi Chris

I would like to try some root cuttings of Hepaticas did you lay them flat on the soil ? Some more  information would be a help to me.  Thank you.

Angie :)

Lesley Cox:
I haven't tried root cuttings as such but I once did have some new little shoots come up about 4 months after I had dug out a large plant. They can only have been from roots shooting.

Olga Bondareva:
Chris
Thank you very much for the hopeful information and illustrated report!
I join to angie's question. Did you lay root or dig them vertically? Did you cut roots at the caudex or use outlying roots?

chris:
I put the roots in 10cm pots vertically, about 10 for 1 pot, when I pot them up I lay my pot horizontaly so in fact I lay my roots flat, when I set my pot vertically I fill the pot with compost 1cm above the roots, than I water them in and just wait, never let dry the pot out
