Fruit bush cutting success

After pruning the soft fruit bushes last year, we struck lots of cuttings of red and black currants amd gooseberries in pots of compost.

As you can see with this cutting, they are starting to root quite well now and will soon be ready to pot on into individual pots. They will make great gifts for newbies on the allotments next year.
