Hi,

Sorry I didn’t answer before, there is not enough hours in a day! And I was attending the Salon National de l’Environnement in Montreal’s old port. If you need a fast answer, please write me: doris@conceptslecault.com I check that address every day.

For the clay pebbles, thank you Bhavana34 for the address in Kentucky, they are very professional.

And Bhavana34, about the roots, I usually wait that the roots are about ½ inch, then I pot, and I water normally, that is the optimum, a suggestion: let your clay pebbles soak in water for 24 hrs, they will bring more humidity to the roots and help make new ones. In the picture, h ariadna is ready to be transplanted but h australis is not. But if you transplanted already your carnosa cutting with only ¼ in roots, I then suggest that you put water to maximum, and let the water level indicator go down, before adding water again, that is a must with all plants, that is when they get their oxygen and clean a few square inches of air around the pot! Big pot clean more....

Sorry Stellapathic about the mess that the 6-month-old Weimaraner did! Untrained dogs can make very bad messes, especially puppies. I was a dog groomer and trainer for 15 years, dogs are another passion of mine!
Take care,
Doris
