I bought three Melampodium leucanthum 'Blackfoot Daisy' two years ago at a local native plant nursery. I only have one left. I've learned they are short-lived. Does anyone have experience with propagating these or any wildflower from a cutting? If so, when, what kind of wood, how, etc. I've never done propagation from cuttings, so I thought maybe that's the way to go. The birds get the seeds before I do. I would love to have a few more of these. The bees and I love them! I have Chocolate Flower and these daisies, which smell like honey. On a warm morning, when I'm deadheading, my garden smells like a cup of hot cocoa with honey. Mmmmmm! Thanks!
