oh neat I didn't know sunflowers could propagate from cuttings! Thank you!

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

Absolutely

[@BNicoleJackson]

One of my sunflowers was recently attacked by a vindictive squirrel and I'm so glad I found this video to possibly save it.

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

Absolutely. All the best!

[@CarterKey6]

I had so many sunflowers growing in horrible locations this year thanks to you I will know what to do next year

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

I am glad it helped

[@dianadiaz9171]

I just think you are absolutely delightful 🙂 thanks for your videos

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

Thank you

[@jillianleblanc9370]

Thank you for sharing beautiful and amazing plants

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

You are very welcome

[@keithc5966]

Thank you!! I will try this method.

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

Please do!

[@Sabbathissaturday]

I love my sunflowers. I will give this a go. Never thought about doing. I do trim the leaves a lot.

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

Yeah give it a try

[@FirstLast-numba1]

any stem plant can.

[@jonathangreene685]

my daughters are going to love to know their plants might grow from cuttings

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

That's great

[@deliadelgado3364]

My 2 year old son stepped into my garden and broke my sunflower and it was growing so well and strong. I hope I can save it and see how it turns out

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

Absolutely

[@islandblue7]

My son just snapped a gorgeous 8ft sunflower about to bloom 😢 Going to see if we can save it!! Thank you ☺️

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

You can do it!

[@dianadiaz9171]

Can you do video on the feed you use and soil type, if that matters. What is the hormone you are dipping in.

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

I have a video on soil already. It's rooting hormone

[@denisef1153]

I read you can also use aloe Vero as a rooting aid. I’m going to try it. I have several aloe plants.

[@lily336402]

what about a broken stem, and I leave the stem part in the soil, will the stem survive and grow leaves?

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

It can but you will have to protect it a bit. If it's in harsh sun, the stem will die.

[@ap3r3z29]

Is it necessary to put a hormone what if you wanted to do it naturally could the stem just be planted in some soil

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

It can work without the root hormone but the success rate improves with it

[@atsumusimp3823]

Will it work with bouquet sunflower?

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

Probably not because the stems would have been old but there is no harm in trying it

[@sahajjeewanbydrlata]

Usefull for me,i don't have seeds

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

Great

[@jayc6841]

Can I do this and leave main flower on?

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

You mean leave the flower on the cutting? That cutting may not grow roots because a lot of energy will go in supporting the flower

[@mindflowhypnosis]

What is routing hormone?

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

It's a powder you can buy from a nursery or online

[@szhermae1031]

Can they propagate in water?

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

I haven't tried

[@margieleon8044]

Wow! That sunflower looks fake😳

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

It does
