I’d like to see a video made a year on to see how well they’ve rooted.
Thank you for sharing. That's exactly what I was looking for.
This "like" is for the golden advice of "angled cut for top and straight cut for bottom of cutting" Brilliant! Thank You
Yay! Thank you :)
the slanted cut is also for water not to stay there.
...IMHO: This is a great way to turn many of the salvage the trimmed branches that needed to be thinned, removed, or eliminated due to bad growth direction etc., and to grow them into new plants, and putting them back into the landscape, for their benefit to wildlife. (using locally "Native" species).Be sure to Read "Bringing Nature Home" by Doug Tallamy!!!
Very helpful! Thank you. 😊🌱
all information about cutting propagation for tree\shrub

Does this work for the variegated dogwoods like ivory halo and elegantissma?
What type of plant qualifies as a "hardwood'? You pot the cuttings in February, so do you recommend that the plant be dormant before taking cuttings? Do you keep the potted cuttings outside in the cold, or should they be indoors (is there an optimum soil temperature for root growth?) How do you know whether or not they have rooted? Do you wait until leaves grow on the cuttings to determine if they have rooted? I would be grateful for answers to these questions. Thank you from New Mexico, USA.
Hey! We got Ian and Alan to answer this on the latest Talking Dirty podcast, from about the 46th minute. In short, usually Hardwood cuttings are for shrubby plants. You don't have to take them when the plant is dormant, but you need to remove foliage from the cutting and make sure you put two thirds of the cutting under the soil. You can put them in a trench in the garden, but rose pots are great. Leave that pot somewhere sheltered and you'll know it's rooted when you get leafy growth. It's a slow process, so they'll probably be ready in a year or so. Hope that helps! :)
what about hazel nut cuttings? Thanks
auttocar.com would be the same as red osier
@@bigweb0311 Thanks
hello, why do you stick them along the edge of the container?
Hey! That is an excellent question! We traditionally put cuttings round the edge of a pot to aid the rooting process - the edge of the pot is warmer as its gets the sunlight first and so warms quicker even on cold spring days. This process of warming is greater in black plastic pots but clay pots will also do the same. If you have a heated propagator then you can put cuttings evenly spaced across the pot, and not just round the edges as the heat is coming up through the bottom of the pot. Another reason for the edge of the pot is that when new roots are produced they hit the side of the pots sooner and either branch or break so that in a better root system is formed, this is only minor but a consideration and advantage. Hope that all makes sense! :)
@@GetgardeningnowUk1 hey, cool. Thanks for all the info.I have watched some more propagation videos and in some of them they explained it. But you know whats funny? They mentioned only one reason: that the soil along the edges of the container dries less quickly than in the center. :)
Maybe they wanted to keep the other in secret :D
@@johnytwo well what about that! Turns out there are tonnes of reasons! :)
Scam fake probably % 1 success rate.
On Dogwoods it's a near 100% success rate. You obviously haven't a clue what you're talking about
