September 22, 2014Q.can you help me identify this plant?
I dug a flower bed this year & this plant grew. I dug up some branches, looked like some kind of a fir tree had been there. That's kind of what these new plants resemble. I do like them. I'm sending pictures of them. Thanks

September 24, 2014A.Hi! I believe this is Yellow Toadflax, the Latin name is Linaria vulgaris. It is a perennial weed.

June 24, 2015Q.Linaria reticulata did not thrive
We put out Linaria reticulata "Flamenco" seedlings in March. We have formerly had great luck- tons of flowers, etc. Instead, these sort of staggered along with a few tiny flowers and recently gave up the ghost. We treated them the same as previously. What happened?

Kratovo, MacedoniaQ.I Found A Plucked Plant Without A Root On The Street And I Want To Root It And Plant It. How Can I Do That?
I want to root this plant that I fould and plant it in soil. I think I have a Linaria Genistifolia. Someone threw it on the street without a root;the plant was probably plucked off the soil, the root was randomly cut off and the plant only has a stem, leaves, and flowers. The stem of the plant goes down to its root, I'd say. The leaves are starting to look tired, the flowers are starting to go dry. I put the plant in about 1.5 litters of water and just added fertilizer to it. I can see that the plant has new flowers growing on the top and maybe some new stems growing on the main stem. I've had it for like a week and a half now. Any advice?

Certified ExpertA.The first thing will be to cut that flowering stalk off. Flowering hormone inhibits rooting hormone.
Next will be to hold off on nutrients. In fact, less nutrients will provide better rooting. Use a rooting hormone to make this process faster.
