Second Chance Plants with Plantbaby @ RCLC

Give a scraggly, overgrown plant a fresh start or learn how to propagate it into new plants! You can bring your own or use one of ours. This hands-on class covers the basics of plant propagation, including stem and leaf cuttings, division, and water propagation. You’ll learn where and how to make cuts, which methods work best for different plants, and how propagation can transform tired, leggy plants into beautiful new ones. You can bring your own plant from home, or you can use one of ours!
