.. I just had something interesting happen.And I was hoping for feedback.

I am notoriously bad at doing blueberry cuttings, but I tried again this year to see if I can get anything to to root.

I took the cuttings in winter, applied root hormone and carefully placed them into soil and kept them moist for all these months.

While doing so I also happened upon a couple of onions the animals have uprooted and I toss them on top of the soil for no good reason other than just to have them be someplace.


As I expected my blueberry cuttings, did not take root. ****Except for the two corners, where my onions developed roots down into the soil!!!


I have two ceilings with roots!!


Could anybody explain that one to me?
