Perhaps someone could add a brief how-to for removing said cuttings without maiming the donor plant? It sounds like fun, but I certainly wouldn't want to kill my coworker's plant in the process!

Hi, I've added a step-by-step guide for striking a plant and some additional information. I hope it helps. Sam 21:31, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Striking?

I moved this article from Cutting (plant) to Striking because at the time I thought the technical term for propagation by cuttings was "striking". I've been doubting this assertion, though, and looked in one of my horticulture books today and found absolutely no mention of it. A Google search comes up with nothing but this article. Have I made a mistake? I could have sworn I read the term "striking" used in a professional publication but I can't find any mention of it now. Sam 22:37, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

Done. Some tidying up is still required, but I've fixed the double redirs (one) and the disambig notice. Andrewa 14:18, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
