    Hi,
    Can anyone tell me how to go about propagating Staghorns by cutting? I have several Elkhorns I've taken cuttings from successfully, but don't know where to start when it comes to Staghorns.
    Thanks
    Gidge.

    Thanks Liz, your answer most helpful. Will just have to wait till summer now and try propagating them using the spore method.

    Hi Gidge my staghorns currently have ripe spore - it may be worth checking yours now and starting the propagation process. cheers bertoli
