How to Propagate Aciphylla horrida
The spiny speargrass, a warrior of the alpine world, yields its secrets grudgingly. Its seeds, minute and defiant, whisper promises of life rarely kept. Cuttings, stubborn spines defying the scalpel’s blade, resist the coaxing embrace of rooting hormone, their fate hanging precariously in the balance. Yet, the triumphant emergence of a tiny root, a tenacious tendril clinging to life, ignites a fierce joy; a hard-won victory against the odds, mirroring the plant’s own struggle for survival in the harsh, unforgiving landscape it calls home. The reward? Not mere propagation, but a testament to perseverance, a connection forged through shared resilience.
