    That is wonderful, thank you. We ordered a hydrangea from Home Depot, and it came in smashed, no leaves left, and broken into just sticks. I'm new to gardening and didn't know what to do, so I took the sticks and put them in water under a grow light. 5 weeks later, the roots are about 2 inches long, and one of the sticks has 10 leaves! I can't believe it! Plants WANT to live. Don't give up on them if they look dead. ❤

    I put mine in a clear soft drink cup with lid and cut holes around the bottom edge for draining. In a clear cup you can watch the roots grow! 👍🏼

      Three clear cups. Put cutting in seedling soil in one cup that you poked holes in the bottom. Put an inverted cup on top and tape them together with painter’s tape. Use the to hold the mini greenhouse. Fun project for kids and adults!

      Is there any soil in the cup or is it just the cup?

      I've read that roots don't like light at all. While fun , it might be making the root growth slower than using a cup/planter that doesn't let light in.

    The only thing I would add is that you dip your cuttings in water before you put the root tone on it. It definitely helps the hormone powder stick to it. You might also try poking a finger hole in your soil rather than pushing cuttings in. This wont brush off the hormone. TC and Thanks for a fun and direct video

    I just bend a limb of mine over to the ground and weight it down with a brick, cover with soil and wallah, it will grow roots from the nodes itself. Once the roots have grown, I just clip between each clump of roots.I get many plants that way, all at once.

      I have several that I started years ago. I rooted them in water and now some of them are 6/7 feet tall. The trunks are like tree trunks. I trim them back every year but the keep coming back as tall as the year before. They are blu and I wish I could make some of them pink. I bet yours looks beautiful.

    Remember, guys, the color of the flowers will not necessarily be the same as the parent plant. The soil ph determines the hydrangea color. Acid soil makes blue flowers, and alkaline soil makes pink. Certain blends of those soils will give you lavender or even purple flowers. You can change your soil by adding the appropriate chemicals. Lime makes more alkaline. Sulphur makes it more acid. There are some hydrangeas that are white and don’t change based on ph. Annabelle is one of those.

    When you plant them in your yard, where’s the best location? Full sun, shade, etc?

    • @judymoore5009
      @judymoore5009 6 місяців тому

      Traditionally, most agree that planting on a north facing side of your home is safe. Also, in an area close to trees where they get some morning sun and protection from afternoon sun is good. It also depends on your planting zone. You can adjust where you need to because very hot dry weather requires more sun protection. In Mississippi, I have some in deep shade which do well but probably don’t bloom as much as if they got a little more sun. The ones on the north side of my house do very well. My favorite variety is Endless Summer because they repeat bloom all summer.

    what is the best month to take the cuttings and what is the latest month you can plant cloned hydrangeas in the ground after they have rooted in kansas city zone 6B

  • @judypeterson803
    @judypeterson803 6 місяців тому

    I find, since there are so many kinds and colors of hydrangea, taking cuttings and cloning one of your existing plants will ensure the color and type of plant you get will match your existing hydrangea. No guessing. If you want a hedge, buy one, get cuttings the first year, and plant the rest of the hedge the second year. The first one will be larger, but all the rest will mature at the same pace. Works the same if you're tying a few corners of your property together with like plants, or berms. Make the first one year and plant the others the second year from the cuttings. They will all match. No longer will you worry about mislabeled plants at the nursery or trying to remember which kind yours is.

    May sound like a dumb question but how to you let it go dormant ? in winter? Or fall? When do you start that? Do you water during dormancy? Where do you store it, inside or outside? In the dark? I’ll admit right now I do not have a green thumb but I’m trying to learn. 😃

    • @irishka_zolotse
      @irishka_zolotse 2 роки тому +1

      Great question, I am in Minnesota, have done plenty of hydrangea cuttings, all outside all winter long, go dormant in the fall with the mama plant, covered by snow... water until the ground freezes... 90% survival rate, usually the ones that newly leafed out during summer, meaning the root system has been developed before dormancy... Good luck, hydrangea is easy!!!!

    I have my mother’s hydrangea in a cast iron kettle. It’s maybe over twenty years old. I’ve made baby plants many times. I do it kinda the cowboy way by just cutting anywhere. You’ve shown me a better place to cut and why. Maybe my percentages will hopefully improve doing it your way. Thanx for the video. Glad you reinforced not to stick your cuttings directly in to the rooting hormone. And I’m a Folger’s guy too!
