Scotch Broom - How to propagate from semi ripe cuttings

[@MrDuffy81]

The plastic bag method is brilliant. I don’t think I would’ve done that if I didn’t watch this video. Thank you for the suggestion and for your expertise. I am in Colorado in a very dry environment and that bag method is a lot easier than having to go water every morning.

Just found your channel, lovely to see an Irish gardener. Be nice to see a garden tour sometime. The bit behind you is lovely and I can hear water running?

[@Kiwi_Ed]

Thanks for the video, Larry. For a second I thought you said that should root in about 46 weeks.. 😮 Had to rewind that to hear you say 4 to 6 weeks ☺

[@MrDuffy81]

We have two yellow plants in the garden, but I have seen the red now online and I would love to get a crimson variety. They are so beautiful.

[@MrDuffy81]

My apologies, but are you using rooting hormone in a liquid form as I didn’t see it dipped in powder?

[@carlostovar5713]

Is this possible with a big Branch as well

[@susancarss1877]

I have been trying to propagate from the seeds with no luck so pleased to see this video. Do the cuttings not need any further water in the 4-6 weeks

[@rochabarten3949]

hi! did you managed to propagate succesfully from cuttings? your response will be greatly appreciated

[@susancarss1877]

@@rochabarten3949 No. I gave up after two attempts. Two weeks ago I spotted some seeds for sale on ebay and am now patiently waiting and hoping they will germinate. I have a beautiful red broom in the garden and want more!! This is not going to beat me!!

Isn’t the scotch broom an invasive species that prevents healthy forests to grow?

[@larrygollogly2493]

Have not come across any record of this shrub being invasive, not to be confused with another yellow flowering plant "Gorse" which is often seen in forest settings.

[@RandHunt]

@@larrygollogly2493 it is classified as a noxious weed by the government. Devistatingly invasive here.

[@ridinggirl100]

Apparently it depends where you are planting and how many seeds the variety produces. I have never had a problem with it being invasive in the state of Virginia......in fact I find it a bit finicky. Would not mind if mine was invasive. I enjoy the hybrids with red/rose.

[@Gabbagooooo]

Not to mention extremely fire prone and it dry’s out in the summer time becoming even easier to burn, the forest service where I live litterly rents tools for removing it for free cause they want it gone that bad, it is not a good plant to keep for the “pretty flowers” I promise you

[@MrDuffy81]

@@RandHunt i’m in Colorado and I have never had it reproduce on its own. I’m watching this video in order to take cuttings because the Nursery center wants $120 a plant for them. I think maybe they used to have ones that would seed themselves and they probably bred it out over the years after they realize what was happening but it’s a beautiful early blooming plant and it works well in the garden here in zone five

[@Pucktechnology]

Here i am looking up videos trying to eradicate this invasive undying weed from my country 🤦‍♂️

Trump is impervious to all usual weed eradication methods.
