Learning how to propagate and take cuttings from your plants is a great way to grow your garden and introduce new additions without spending extra money. And Acers are a great candidate.
Not only are acers one of the best patio container plants, but they're also a brilliant plant for autumn colour when the rest of your blooms wilt away after summer. Whilst acers aren't always expensive, if you do want more of them, why not use a completely free method and one you can do over and over again?
