You should do them as hardwood cuttings if you want to have a 50 for 50 outcome. That’s become my go to method for panicle hydrangeas. Since I do it for fun and don’t sell them, I’ve started to give them away to my neighbors just to make room to make more lol. When I trim my limelights late winter, it’s so hard to throw away the trimmings knowing I’m throwing away hundreds of plants. So I stick them… try it, you’ll get the closest to the 100% success rate as your ever likely to get.

@Garden-,Oasis,what is sticking? My brother cuts back his Confederate Roses,which is a type of hybiscuss I think. He just pushes them down in some dirt until they root. An I'm talking about in the ground. And they root! He gives them away also.

​@@leannabrannon5470 For the Crepe Myrtles, I used a mixture of sand (bag playground sand) and coco coir. Took a large Hiwaiian Punch bottle and made a cut half way across the front so that I could tilt the top up, but it would go back into place when I released it. Put a couple of holes in the bottom for drainage if you want but I didn't. I left the cap off of it once I stuck the Crepe Myrtles in it. Just put them in a shady area and left them for the summer underneath my hydrangeas. Checked occasionally to be sure the sand was still damp inside. Then one day they all had roots I could see from the bottom of the bottle.

Well I just took some cuttings from my limelight and going to try to propagate some for the other areas in the landscape. Also going to try to have a couple of extras to share with friends who want one. I also have some of the blue endless summer. That is where I normally root my plant cuttings (underneath them) because they are in the shady side of the house, but also allow some filtered sunlight for a short period of the day.. Seems to be the perfect place.

The two that i propagated that I put in the ground took off. In 3 months they grew to 3 ft.. another cool thing about the limelight that most people don't mention is mine fades into like a pink color around fall.

Best thing is these were from a few branches that were not cut back earlier in the spring I clipped and I left them laying by the bushes for a couple of days. I was about to pick them all up and toss them but had just mixed up some coir and sand so decided to try to root a few. I found the firmest part of the new growth, used two nodes and stuck 10 plants. All of the leafs (cut in half) are now perked up firm and new growth has started. Glad to know they can also be rooted with only one node. * Also I'm just doing these for myself and the fun of it so no big deal if they don't make it.

I don't know exactly what "river sand" is, as sand is called and branded by all sorts of different names in different parts of the country. It just need to drain well. If it drains well, maybe has some small pebbles in it, needs to be coarse and not powdery - it'll work.

Limelight is free to propagate and sell by the name Limelight. Pinky Winky? Still under patent until October of 2024, then its name, not sure... but sounds like a trademark protected name to me.

I successfully rooted a panful of Weigela last summer. They rooted, put on leaves and some even bloomed! I intended to pot them up this winter before they broke dormancy but now they are leafing out. Do you think I should pot these up and prune them or just pot them up and prune them after they bloom in May?

I read once that you could put them in a clear plastic tub with a lid and make sure you put it in a shady spot with no direct sunlight or they'll fry in the summer. But that would keep the humidity in so you don't have to mist them as much and keep them from drying up (as long as they don't get direct light!).

Right now I mainly have paniculatas, which are sun loving hydrangeas that can take all day sun. The problem for us has been excessive heat. So, some plants I'm having to water twice a day, which I have never had to do before. This heat has been hard on ALL of my plants.
