Nearly every bud will produce a plant. The following spring the plants may be separated i-...-- . - - .. -i . with a sharp spaile and tran-plantod, ror prouycing plants in greatpi numbers, cuttings aro usually u.sed .This fall, canes that grow this year . are cut into lengths of two or three buds each The cut at the lowei bud is made Vi inch from the bud and at pie upper bud Inch from tlu "u,i uau canes ino uucMieN-iui 'es of ten or fifteen and bury in tho Rnrden with tho butt ends up.
