propagate branched snapdragon

The tiny cutting, a fragile sliver of life, held the promise of Acanthorrhinum ramosissimum‘s delicate, snapdragon-like blooms. Success felt distant, a mirage in the arid landscape of horticultural uncertainty. Each dampened peat pellet, a tiny island in a sea of potential failure, represented a hopeful gamble. The humid air, thick with anticipation, hung heavy as I watched, tending with a reverence born of cautious optimism. Then, a tremor of green, a resurrection of sorts, whispered of triumph. This humble sprig, resurrected from a seemingly lifeless fragment, blossomed into the reward of patience, a tangible testament to the enduring magic of nature.
