Making New Plants From A Cut Flower Bouquet

[@LoulousCorner]

If you dry those flower heads, you can brew a really nice tea from them! just add a few to a cup or teapot and add boiled water. It's really yummy!

[@harleymurphy9025]

Loulou's Corner no it’s not just use some pg tips I’m not drinking tea that tastes like perfume

[@irisrowanmoon]

Take ⚠️ caution on how many deadheadings you use for tea. Some people say to include stems as well, and I’m uncertain if there is much difference. Though I do know that if boiled when flowers are raw, not dried, the chemicals in chamomile/daisies produce an even stronger sedative that makes you sleep. Im still studying and researching this, seeing that I’ve experimented with different variables on taking and brewing tea. Though, I do believe the potency of the Daisy and Chamomile depend on if dried or not. I have taken many chamomile teas and Daisy teas. But, the first time I was too impatient to dry the cuttings of my daisies, I fell under a sleep like trance within 10-15 minutes and fell asleep for nearly 12 hours. Mind you, I was unaware of the difference it would make besides the after taste. Yeah... I would suggest not to add more than is needed. I used one flower per cup of water but I still felt some side effects that I’m sure isn’t a normal occurrence.

i know it's 3 years late, but i would avoid using flowers from stores. You have no idea what kinds of pesticides or herbicides were used on them. They weren't grown with being eaten in mind.

I recieved sunflower boquet yesterday coz it's valentines day and would like to replant it again if possible hehehe. When i asked why sunflowers? ( coz roses are more famous or common to give when it's valentines) he said "Because you are my sunshine" Hahahaha just wanna share the sweetness

[@NMW80]

The seeds grow easily in a sunflowers 🌻 so if they didn’t work and you still have them dried you can grow the seeds really easily.

[@neahneah5113]

@@NMW80 Hi! Unfortunately some big worms grew on my sunflower and the seeds are falling down after 7-10 days and I didn't thought about planting the seeds. I tried watching videos and i just saw the whole sunflower being replanted which I also didn't do coz I dont think that will work on my sunflower. I will try the seeds next time. Thanks :)

[@NMW80]

Neah Neah No worries 😊 I just thought you may still have the seeds lol. I remember getting some fresh sunflowers 🌻 and I grew heaps all around my front yard with the seeds lol and it was so easy. So yeah it’s a very easy plant to grow if you ever want to try it I think they grow from sunflower seeds at the supermarkets too. As long as you get sunflowers that haven’t been heated they will work.

[@ZanaDew]

Very cool! I've heard that you can put chrysanthemum cuttings in water and they will root.

[@777jlap]

Ty I have a whole bix of cut flowers! I'm going to do this!

[@reddevil9554]

I never knew you could do this. I'll have a look next I have some flowers. Thanks :)

[@Gardeningat58N]

Good luck, it doesn't happen very often, but it's worth looking out for, I also got a rose plant once by this method.

[@conversingwithconita]

OMG dude you are a life saver with this video. I always wanted to now if I can do this. Thank you for this awesome video. Do you have other video's like this regrowing things???? What was in your compost mix??? Do you have an update on how it went?

[@Gardeningat58N]

Yes, I did a few update videos, here are the links for them: kzbin.info/www/bejne/r2akeYmXrblqfa8 , kzbin.info/www/bejne/bGPQg56Igr1rg80 and kzbin.info/www/bejne/qJa7YnmclqyMp8U . I also have a video about growing carrot tops: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qoTUiqmAhqeqqJI One about Avocado stones: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qnmmaIN5d8yDaaM I used two thirds multipurpose compost and one third perlite to give it better drainage as cuttings are vulnerable to root rot.

[@tanyalee-cox6191]

Thanks. Hoping it will work for my roses. Special memory.

[@NMW80]

Did it work for your roses? It’s so hard to grow them from the florist as I heard they use hormones to stop new growth. But some places don’t use it.

[@p.c.6706]

👏👏👏👏👏 i keep trying this and have had no sucess so far so i was ready to stop trying. you just showed me not to give up. lol. thank you for sharing this ! :-)👍

[@daniyaansari9294]

what you have to do is to add some cloves in the water in which you've placed those stems ....but make sure to change the water after 3 to 4 days and as well as add some cloves discarding those older used cloves

[@Paul-010]

Great tip!

[@WxveafivvcKevhir]

THANK YOU! my bf has been sending me flowers on the regular and we literally dont know what to do with them

[@krisantadraculan6148]

Did you put them under direct sunlight during the whole month it grew a root? Also, how often did you change the water when it was still a bouquet cutting?

[@eusebiasantiago2715]

How do u not have soggy stems from it sitting in the water for so long

[@ROSALIEIK]

sounds complcated

[@bookbearerplus]

Thank you.

[@whereisalex96]

Will this work on oriental lilies? I just bought a single lily stem with beautiful flowers on it, and though it is a cut vase flower, I wonder if I can get it to root?

[@mariyaatanasova1556]

No. Lillies cannot be propagated with stem cuttings as they come from a bulb. Some Lillies produce tiny bulblets across the stem and these can be planted and will grow in bigger bulb each year. Some naturalize by making baby bulbs. Asiatic ones tend to be much more robust and naturalize. Oriental are fussy and they tend to not come back for me in my climate. Asiatic survived a very brutal minus 20 C winter for 3 months in pots. Oriental won't survive this.

[@nycbklynrmp]

how often change water whenits a bouquet.

[@phoebechalk3845]

Would using rooting hormone help? If so, would you use it before letting cuttings sit for a while in water?

[@Gardeningat58N]

Yes rooting hormone would help, I would recommend adding a little rooting hormone to the water when you first get the cut flowers.

[@viktoria3785]

is there an update on this? I received some very nice lilies in a bouquet and would love to hear if it's possible to propagate them and turn into an actual plant

[@Gardeningat58N]

Yes, the update can be found here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bGPQg56Igr1rg80 Its not very common for cut flowers to root, but if you notice the stems are still alive after a month or new growth appears have a look for roots.

[@gardeningwithpleasure]

Thanks for sharing

[@FTYC2022]

Did you have the bouquet in the sun? Would that cause them to root? Did you ever change the water?

[@sarah200869]

How did you get them to root?

[@angelestacio9789]

Woooww I will

[@dj912sent9]

Can you collect the seeds? Or will those seeds not be viable? I have a white chrysanthemum bouquet.

[@BespontovyiPirozhok]

What about watering? how often should one water, e.g. roses that were planted this way?

[@hotdogs5265]

Thanks

[@Spacecadet0720]

Can you pot a bouquet of cider gum(eucalyptus)?

[@ralucli96]

I want an update about this. Did they grow ?

[@Gardeningat58N]

Yes, here is a link to the update video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bGPQg56Igr1rg80

My lily has now roots or flowers it's just the stem the stem is green there's no rotting can i just plant them in rich soil miricale gro or is it too late

[@KAAKKK]

What happens if you want to do this but the flowers have no roots growing?

[@munzamy]

You will need a rooting hormone

[@leopillay8939]

Hw long did u have it in water

[@Gardeningat58N]

I think it was about two months.

[@nycbklynrmp]

@@Gardeningat58N how often you change water?

[@letesaaviles9641]

Did you put some fertilizer in the water?

[@angelestacio9789]

How about the flowers matured is there seed in a flowers to grown it

[@deetleskeet]

I like that you do all of this without a lot of expensive, fancy equipment. What do you use to sterilize you tools?
