Maybe this should be on my Blog not a forum, oh well.
A couple of days ago I completed removal of the tree from the front of the greenhouse. Picture of destruction below. Hoping that two thirds of the greenhouse will be saved. Trying to think creatively to rebuild the damaged area. All metal pieces were bent. Might be able to use PVC pipe or even a wood structure on the end. Five or six Epi's succumbed but I have cuttings or they were duplicates.
So now I continue storm clean up but at the same time take pleasure in after blooming season work of potting up from 1 gallon to 1 gallon pots and trimming back long growth which means more cuttings.
I have three lengths of plastic gutter, each 8 ft long, which will take cuttings. Will set them on the slant so I don't have to drill holes for drainage. Also found three plastic window boxes under the potting bench. Will plant those up with three or four Epis, medium size plants.
Pic is of a "Mary Betty" cutting that bloomed and the storm damage
