Seed

No experience.

Cutting

No experience.

Transplant

2006  I transplanted 5 shrubby cinquefoil from our west gulch to the rock garden along side our lower driveway. They grew the first year but, in the second year, all but one died.

cinquefoil 3

2008  This image is the last of my transplanted shruby cinquefoil to die. I obviously have a lot to learn about transplanting shruby cinquefoil.

Future Plans

2008  Although the shruby cinquefoil did not flower much this year due to the late summer drought, I did find some seed. Next year, I'll germinate the seed indoors.
