- Hibiscus is a perennial shrub, which blooms in summer. It requires a lot of sun, a lot of water and thrives in rich soil. Watch this video to see how to propagate it.

Good experiment! Even with tomato cuttings, I've noticed it's the thicker stems/branches that grow better.
This is very good to know, thank you! xxx
This comment is 3 years late- lol, but I also propagate tomatoes. I have found that if you wrap a sandwich bag, filled with wet soil around a stem near a branch, it will develop roots in the bag. It will take about 2 weeks, depending on the variety. But this way you don’t have to remove the cutting until it is ready to plant. And it may even have fruit at the time of cutting.
The birds are always chirping and talking in back round 🥰they love you .
Nice video. Results seem very realistic compared to other videos on UA-cam. Thank you for sharing!
My pleasure
Great video! I think that physical contact with a solid (such as soil or clay pebbles) stimulates the white growth to extend into new roots sooner. I have had some in water for several months, and the white bumps have not developed roots.
I have propagated a few into new plants.
Also a the soil or pebbles surrounding the stems block sunlight, which keeps algae growth from forming on the new roots. These are just some observations I have seen over the years. 😊
Interesting!
Thanks very helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
Superb
I live in zone 9 in the Florida panhandle. Can I take cuttings in the fall and keep them inside until.the spring?
You can. Put them in water and keep changing vwater every two three days. Take slightly thicker cuttings not very thin.
l put weeping willow leaves in the water . The willow leaves makes things root faster.
I have heard that but never tried it
Did you try rooting some other plants too using weeping willow
@@EasyPeasyGardening l put willow leaves in buckets with water and let it steep , then l water my seeds with it . l water my cuttings with it too. l propagate hydrangeas and hardy hibiscus by cuttings and l get roots really fast.
@@howard977 very nice
What do you think of propagating arebic jasmine from cutting in the water?.. does it work the same way as your this video? I have put the cutting in the water and after few weeks now I am seeing the tiny 2 new leaves on cutting..nothing more! And in the water the twig got little plumpy that means is it progressing towards roots development?
I haven't tried propagating it in water, but tried it in soil. Sometimes leaves appear just because it's stored energy. If it looks solid, may be roots are developing. If it looks soft, maybe it's rotting
When I do the cutting from my brush do I take it from the bottom near the root or middle of bush or top were I never done this
Take the cuttings that are at least about half as thick as a pencil from the top
What other flowers can you follow the branch technique with? Just any?
Most perennials can be propagated like that
Is that hardy hibiscus?
Hardy for which zone?
Pls what medium did you use for planting thanks
I normally use general purpose potting soil mix.
