7. Reproduction : carry seeds (planting seedlings and self-seeding), dividing the rhizome of the bush or green cuttings "with a heel". Seeds can be sown in autumn under snow or spring indoors. The division of the root is carried out early in the spring (it is possible even for small parts) and autumn (not to separate into small parts). Green cuttings harvested in the spring, cutting them with a sharp knife, at a height of 2-3 interstices. With all kinds of reproduction, plants are most often rooted very easily.
