- I will give you step-by-step directions on how to propagate geraniums using cuttings. In this video, I experiment with a few different methods and will make a follow-up video with my results. I love saving money and sharing tips like the ones in this video with you.

I watched your video a couple of months ago and told you I have never had any luck with rooting geranium plants, and I mean NEVER! After watching your experiments and listening to you, I decided to try again, hopeful it would work! Well I have a wonderful story to share, It worked and I probably have about 30 cuttings that are growing and I am "out of my mind happy!" My mother and grandmother use to just snip off cuttings and push them into the ground and they would grow but that never happened to me and I tried until I cried to no avail! I set up experiments like you to test if one soil might work better than another and I used sand, miracle grow and garden soil along with mixing sand and miracle grow garden soil. My findings showed that every single soil has and does work. Keeping them moist, not dry and not overly wet is a must. I did one thing different than what you told us to do, I have aloe vera plants in my yard and I had seen it used when rooting plants so I cut off leaves, sliced them open and dug out the gel. Ready your pots and pre wet the soil, punch the holes for your cuttings and place a piece of aloe vera gel in the bottom of the hole and then insert your cutting. This has worked 100% percent of the time! However, I was working out front and accidentally broke off a couple pieces of the geranium and rather than throw them away, I dug a small hole and stuck them in the planter box, not thinking they would survive, but they did and are putting on flowers and I am having to cut them off!!!! And on those I did not use aloe vera on all of them but all of them grew!
I feel like I really owe you a world of thanks!! Your video inspired me to try growing cuttings again, something I had really wanted but failed at all the time! I am so surprised at how none of them have failed, but flourished and several put on flowers that I cut off to allow the roots to grow, I do keep an eye on them and watch the moisture daily but other than trying it early in the year and the aloe gel, I did nothing different but it worked like magic! I just had to share this with you and say thank you a million times!
Thank you so much for sharing your story as well as your results of your own experiment. I am soooo happy that you got so many geraniums to root. Woohoo!! I guess the moral of the story with gardening as well as other things is life is to not give up, right friend? I will have to try the aloe gel method. That sounds very interesting! Thank you again for taking the time to comment and give a detailed update. I truly appreciate it and anyone else reading your comment will truly find it helpful if they are also trying to get geraniums to root from cuttings. Happy gardening, my friend! 💗🌻
Hi, Thanks for taking time to show how to take cuttings from the Mother plant, very interesting, I will be doing that when my Geraniums get a bit bigger, Enjoy the video, Happy Gardening, Ann from Ohio😊
Thanks Ann. I'm looking forward to making an update video on this. It's been a few years since I took geranium cuttings so it was fun to experiment with a few different techniques.♥🌼
I over wintered 2 good sized geranium plants. I will take a few cuttings and do exactly what you did. Thanks for the information!
Awesome! You are very welcome. It'll be great to increase our stock in geraniums. 🌷😊
Very helpful thanks
Thank you. It was fun making this video and I look forward to making an update video in the future. ♥🌸
I am currently experimenting with a geranium cutting in a glass of water, but I think I will plant it up. Thanks for your sensible advice!
I love experiments! I'd love to hear how it works out for you. 😊🌹
@@budgetgardeningvita It's got roots! 😀 It took about 2 months, and it looks like it's begging to be potted up. This might be a suitable method to propagate in bulk for your backyard nursery.
Informative video I'm waiting for my over wintered geraniums to get a little bigger
Thanks Gloria. Good idea. I was going to wait also but I figured now might be a good time for mine as some of them were tall and needed to be cut back a little. I am also thinking of potting up the mother plants as I'm starting to see some roots at the bottom of the pots. They seem to be happy and putting most of their energy into creating their roots first. 😊🌺♥
