I don't know why you couldn't. Give it a try and then let us know what happens.

Yes, spirea is pretty easy to root. I just planted one that I rooted from last year. As a matter of fact, that's how I got the original plant in the first place. I snitched a piece and rooted it. Now I have five.

Hahaha! Well, that's how my mama did it. Everywhere she went, she'd snitch a piece off a plant that she liked or if there were some seeds, she'd snitch that.
She up in her 90's, and I think that she is still snitching!

That's funny, Witt. We had a neighbor that moved from their property. All that next year I saw loads of glads spring up. I dug those bulbs up after they quit flowering and a small magnolia tree. The year following that one, they moved BACK! I was horrified because I knew all they had to do was look across the property and they would see that magnolia tree planted in my yard. So, I went right on over and fessed up. We all laughed about it. I really did think they had abandoned their property because it happens a lot around here...usually tax issues. Anyway, I dug up their magnolia and gave it back to them, then BOUGHT one of my own. I should develop the "snipping habit". It's a lot less stressful!

Palmetto; your post has me laughing out loud!

What's not funny is the neighbor I have down the street who is a plant cleptomaniac (sp?). She really has a problem, the neighbors who live across the street from her video taped her stealing plants. She walks right into your yard and pulls things out of the ground, then hides them in pots in her backyard. She hordes them. It's really maddening, the police have had to be called on her. Now her hubby is threatenting to send her back to Italy if she doesn't stop. She was even fired from a job in a nursing home because she was stealing flowers from the patients rooms.

Ya'll are hysterical!

My next door neighbors moved the first year we lived in our house. They had payed off the loan and found another, and just decided to move and leave the house empty. Well, the lady who lived there had quite a green thumb, and when she left she told me to help myself to anything I wanted. I couldn't bring myself to do it until this year, because I helped her clean out her beds to get the house ready to sell. Since I did a lot of work, I didn't feel guilty for taking plants!

She has spirea growing over there- I'm gonna go steal some right now, since I know what to do with it now! LOL!
