Taking cuttings this time of year is one of my favorite ways to add elegant, simple beauty to our home. Magnolia, forsythia and many others will bloom by cutting & placing in water. That’s it, enjoy watching them unfold before your eyes! My Mother would do this all the time with Pussy Willow and Forsythia.
