- Root hydrangeas in a glass of water on your counter! No muss, no fuss.
I’m bringing you along for the rest of this cutting’s journey. Updates will be linked here so you can see what to do AFTER you get roots and it’s growing.
Update 1: • Results: propagating h...
Love this video. I stuck a piece of my dappled willow in soil and it is doing so well. Easy to propagate and cheaper than buying new plants!
Dappled willow are fast growers so you’ll have a mature plant in no time. I love that about them. 👍
I can attest to this as well. I learned by just sticking some in a jar of water and they rooted in no time at all. Previously I had used rooting hormone, soil and kept them covered in a shady area. That worked, but the water was way easier.
It is way easier, to be sure. And less frustrating because you can actually see how it’s coming along rather than staring at the soil wondering if it’s rooted yet lol
Thanks you’re teaching me so much ❤
And thank you for giving back your time to write so many kind comments. ❤️
Complete plant newbie here. What’s the best potting soil to buy? And how big before it goes in the ground? Zone 6-7 here if that helps
I use miracle grow potting mix. They come in different kinds like “moisture control” ect. but it really doesn’t matter which one you use. Honestly any potting mix, from any company, will work. The whole point of it is to have good drainage. If you water your plants and it runs right through and doesn’t sit on top, that’s a good potting mix.
And for planting in the ground, Autumn/Fall weather is really good. The scorching heat of summer has passed by then and the baby plants go through minimal transplant shock. And they get a few months to root in before winter 👍
@@Garden-Oasis thank you so much!!
I love your spray on your water bottle, where’s it from?
Spray on my water bottle? Can you explain a little more about what you mean?
I’m pushing my luck, I just started and Annabelle hydrangea June 30 ….hoping I can get it to root in time so I can pot it before winter
Zone 5
Annabelle hydrangeas are a bit tricky, especially in water. They’re a bit weird that way. I always do Annabelles in winter as dormant cuttings. They work much better and give you less work to do. You stick them in some potting soil while they’re still dormant (in winter) and leave them alone for the most part. You’ll still have to water them once spring has sprung and they’ve leafed out, of course, but the success rate is way higher 👍
Couple of questions then, do you use cuttings that were new growth, old growth. Pretty sure I have to use a leaf nodes for the roots to start. What about rooting hormone? Do you stick it in a sunny window, dark corner? Actually, if you have a website where I can read up on it, I would not have to bother you with a bunch of questions.
Thanks so much, Jeff
@@jfred1924 so dormant cuttings are a different animal from regular fresh cuttings. You wouldn’t put them in a window because you leave the pot you put them in, outside. To be snowed on and to freeze along with everything else. They’ll actually NEED to stay cold in order to survive and come out of dormancy when the other plants do, in spring. And they do great as single node cuttings so you can get many more plants from one branch.
I’m actually working on a video for Annabelle as hardwood cuttings. I’m waiting to upload till I have a complete start to finish process in one video. I’ll be uploading as soon as it’s ready. You’ll have something to follow this coming winter if you’re interested 😊👍
@@jfred1924 and you do dormant cuttings from that same year’s growth. Basically whatever grew that spring and summer will be your cuttings.
Thank you so much, waiting for a new video
Good
Thank you! 🙏 😊
I have mine on water for over a month. It’s growing leaves but sadly no roots. Don’t know what I am doing wrong.
As long as it doesn’t die, you’re doing great. 👍 different varieties take different times. It’s going at its own pace. Let it do its thing and support it along the way by making sure it always has fresh water. It’s like growing a baby, the baby takes as long as it decides to take. Some come out two weeks early fully developed (and in the case of my sister, 9lbs) and some take an extra two weeks past the due date 🤷♀️ you can’t force these things. You just gotta let nature, do it’s nature thing 🤗
Mine are getting a white fuzz on the nodes. Do you know why that is? Is that normal? I’m changing the water often
That sounds like mold. Are you keeping them in the garbage bag for a long time? You’re only supposed to use the garbage bag for 24hrs. The leaves need to be hit by air, they need to breathe. Spray the white fuzz off the plant with a hose and then let the plant’s leaves dry in the fresh air.
Oh no this is happening with water propagation actually
@@user-rp2vq8lv7h oh so sorry. I was replying to another video that used a garbage bag to revive plants right before you and when I replied to you, my head was still in that video.
Let’s try this again lol. 😆
So that does sound like mold. It sounds like they’ve died and the mold is taking over. Is the part that’s in the water mushy? I’d go ahead and start over. And wash your container with bleach before reusing it, it has mold spores that you can’t see.
Sometimes the cutting dies and it’s nothing that you could have prevented. Even people that do this professionally have some die sometimes. These things are living creatures and living things die sometimes. Try again and see what happens. Good luck.
I get the fuzzy nodes when using water to propagate as well. In my experience, a root is close to popping out when the node gets fuzzy like that.
@@jaimewhitaker7655 I’ve never had fuzz so I have no idea what’s going on. You can see in the video, there’s no fuzz when I start getting roots. The only time I’ve had mold (though I can’t be sure what you guys are referring to IS mold without seeing a pic) but the only time I have mold is when I’ve forgotten to change the water and they died on me. I don’t know what this could be if it’s not mold 🤷♀️ you got me on this one 😅
Was the glass exposed to a sunny window?
No, it was on my dinner table. There is a window in the dining room but it provided indirect light. I wouldn’t place the cutting in direct light. Even after it’s rooted and I planted it, it still got placed in a shady spot. These things need to be babied till they’re stronger and can handle the rays of the sun.
@@Garden-Oasis Thank you! That is good to know because I have a very shady yard so little sun in our windows. It sounds like rooting would still work.
@@cejanuary9378 you have the perfect yard for propagating then. Good luck 👍
I'll have to try this ... I just usually cut them and plant in a small pot in the shade , sometimes they make it and sometimes they don't but it usually takes a while.
@@barbaracole4314 definitely give it a shot. Remember to change the water at least every other day. The bacteria build up is your enemy in this process. The bacteria will try to break down the tissue before it has a chance to root. As long as you can keep bacteria at bay, you’ll be successful. Let us know how it went. And I’m here if you have any questions along the way. Good luck! 👍 😊
MAN CAN PLANT ANYTHING, BUT ONLY GOD CAN MAKE IT GROW...🪴🪴🪴🪴🪴
Very true! All we can do is try, the rest is up to God. 😊👍
