Transform Your Garden with Easy Hydrangea Propagation: Guide for 2023

Hi Garden Friends,
In Today's video I am going to show how to do hydrangea propagation to get free hydrangeas. I will show how to do the cutting, using rooting hormone and put them in either vermiculite or perlite that is pre-moistened. Hydrangea propagation is the best way to get free hydrangeas.
Have you done any hydrangea propagation? What varieties did you do? I hope my video on hydrangea propagation is helpful and enjoyable.
Thank you for watching this video hydrangea propagation and supporting my channel.
Live, Love, Laugh and Garden
God Bless
Chris

I just root mine in water in a vase on the dining table.

[@Cath1027]

Thank you, you’re the first person that I have seen propagate and was genuine. I had to subscribe. I live in Ireland 🇮🇪 where the weather is not too good. Someone I loved died last year. I can take cuttings but feared I would do them wrong. I will do what you have done. Your garden is beautiful. Thank you, Catherine 👍

[@gardeningatthesimongettinorth]

Thank you Catherine that is very kind of you and for the support 🥰🌺💖

[@sylvialappin1409]

[@vickiebillingsley7842]

I love them but my aunt had them on both sides of the stairs when you walk up on the porch I mean they just big and colorful but watch out the bees love them and they will get you when they are pollinating

[@gardeningatthesimongettinorth]

Thanks for watching! Yes the bee’s 🐝 love them too. Luckily I don’t have any by the entrances of my house 🥰🌺

[@jewellrose5072]

Thank you for watching and the birthday wishes 🙂

[@wildedibles819]

I like the pink ones :) Much love xoxox

[@gardeningatthesimongettinorth]

Thank you for watching! The pink are beautiful 🤩

[@mimlauj6869]

Great video! Btw, i think the purple leaves on your twist n shout are sun burned. I have mine in mostly shade and it does well.

[@gardeningatthesimongettinorth]

Thanks for the tip! My oak leaf hydrangea I have one that gets shade during the hot day and one in the south east gets morning and some afternoon sun. That one has never bloomed but the one that is more later sun already bloomed this year. I just planted last year. The other is a couple years old. Thanks again for watching 🥰🌸💚

[@esabelamejia]

Watching from Australia 🇦🇺 hello mam.👋🫶

[@gardeningatthesimongettinorth]

Hello 😊 thank you for stopping by

[@wilmabrazeau3332]

I just found your channel today. New subscriber from southern Ontario zone 6a. I was really impressed with how you explained everything. How long do you think it will be till they are about a foot tall. TFS 🇨🇦👩‍🌾🌸

[@gardeningatthesimongettinorth]

Hi Wilma, thank you for your support. Probably within a couple months. I need to protect my young hydrangeas in the winter from the rabbits 🐇 they love to eat them in the winter. Good luck with your propagation 🥰🌺♥️

[@lindaferguson593]

Love this! Thank you! I would like to know what kind of snippers you use here. Available to buy where? Thanks!!

[@gardeningatthesimongettinorth]

Hi Linda, I like these from Amazon gonicc 8" Professional Premium Titanium Bypass Pruning Shears (GPPS-1003), Hand Pruners, Garden Clippers.- amzn.to/3RJRXHu They are on sale right now too! Thank you for watching 😊

[@GeorgeARud]

Cuttings early July, potted early September, when do they go in the ground? Thank you for the video.

[@gardeningatthesimongettinorth]

Hi, I would start them now, not wait until July and get them in the ground August/September depending on how big they are. Good luck 👍🏻

[@kengarrett1116]

Hi. If you drill 2 or 3 3/4 inch holes in the lid it will allow sufficient ventilation to prevent mould and rotting and yet still keep the humidity high enough to keep the cuttings hydrated.

[@gardeningatthesimongettinorth]

My holes aren’t that big. Maybe the size of a pencil and yes but keep an eye on them and only shade no sunlight

[@LuciRodriguez05]

I loved your video, thank you. I live in texas. oh too hot for them. I don't know how to make them survive. three lime lights died. 😓😓😓😓

[@gardeningatthesimongettinorth]

For hot climates put in morning sun but with afternoon shade and lots of watering on the hotter days. They can handle more water when the temperatures are hot! Thank you for watching 🥰🌺💖

[@LuciRodriguez05]

❤❤❤💝🪻🪻🍂🍁🍂thank you very much. for answering me.❤❤🪻🪻🪻🪻🪻🪻🪻🪻🍂🍂🍂🍂🍂🍂🍂🍂🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁

[@billyjones9620]

Can you do a video on Bobo hydrangeas?

[@gardeningatthesimongettinorth]

Hi! Thank you for stopping by. A Bobo hydrangea is a paniculata. I have a paniculata but not a Bobo. My bushes are still in winter hibernation. I need to wait until this years growth starts.

[@LindaLeyble]

I’d like to try it. Great video. I have a question about Invinciball Blush hydrangeas . I just planted a few - in amended soil, part sun area, I added some Hollytone to it - and one died already. They get water in the morning from my sprinkler…but not a blast (more of a low mist). One more is not doing well. Any thoughts or ideas? Thanks.

[@gardeningatthesimongettinorth]

Hi Linda! Thank you for watching. Maybe too much hollytone? It probably didn’t need it if you amended the soil. I have some he invinciball blush & lime. I didn’t add any fertilizer and I haven’t given any yet. I’ve had the 2 years I think. Try less or no hollytone. I hope it works for you.

[@chrisgilliam8833]

Hi, thanks for info, how long did they stay in the covered box before they rooted? and do the bloomstruck and twistandshouts get morning sun ?

[@gardeningatthesimongettinorth]

Hi I think they started rooting after a couple weeks. I think I left them in the box for a month. I still have them in pots and need to get them planted in the ground soon. All bushes should get planted 6 weeks before the ground freezes. If you’re in a southern climate there isn’t a rush to get them planted since the ground doesn’t freeze. Thank you for watching 😊🌸🌺

[@GardeningWarrior]

I killed my hydrangeas..dont ask me how..i do not know..lol..will definately be getting me some more next year

[@gardeningatthesimongettinorth]

Good luck with your new bushes. They like full sun but need frequent waterings when it’s hot. Thank you for watching 🥰💖🌺

[@jewellrose5072]

Do you recommend the morning sun. I have some that have never bloomed, and I think they are getting hot sun. Question: When do I move them?

[@gardeningatthesimongettinorth]

I would suggest in the fall. Not sure if your ground freezes but up north they suggest planting 6 week before the ground freezes. Early spring or late fall is best. Hope this helps 🥰🌸💖

[@srichtsmeier]

Do you want the stems this short? It makes me nervous to cut them this short.

[@gardeningatthesimongettinorth]

It depends on the variety? If it’s a paniculata it flowers on old & new wood. Macrophylias only bloom on old wood. They set their blooms for the following year in August. You have to be careful to not cut next years blooms. I was only showing for pruning purposes not for a vase. If you want cut flowers cut them to fit your vase.

[@marktoldgardengnome4110]

We are in Maine. If we were to take cuttings now, allowing them to start rooting, kept in the house, they would start growing in dead of winter. Seems they would be growing inside until next April/May and have never had an opportunity to go through a dormant period. Will they be acclimated enough to put them out and survive next winter? (2024/25) TY

[@gardeningatthesimongettinorth]

Hi, To be honest I haven’t tried growing cuttings this late in the season and grow them indoors. Maybe if you let them go dormant somewhere they won’t freeze? Then bring them out of dormancy indoors and grow them until you can plant them outside. Good luck if you decide to try it 😊🌺

[@Gudtime]

Can you propagate the Arborescens Varieties the same way ? I know the 'Incrediball' flowers on New Wood, and your demo flowers on Old Wood... or is it just easier to divide them ? Great Info !

[@gardeningatthesimongettinorth]

Thank you for watching and yes you can propagate the Arborescens varieties the same way the only one that didn’t work was the oak leaf variety. I have an incrediball and blush incrediball, I should have included them. Maybe next season as I’m getting too close to my first fall frost here in Michigan. 😊🌺

[@IamSoAdorable-lh7ob]

So how long did it take to propose

[@gardeningatthesimongettinorth]

It was about 2 weeks I started seeing growth from propagation. Thank you for watching 😊🌺

[@dianearnold1604]

I know how torpor my question is how to keep alive after you put in pots

[@gardeningatthesimongettinorth]

Keep them watered and for the winter have them protected from the harsh winter. Transplant as they get bigger.

[@donnaj1049]

FYI, these hydrangeas are patented plants and it is unlawful to propagate them, even for your own personal use, or to share with anyone.

[@gardeningatthesimongettinorth]

Ok I looked it up and yes it is unlawful but lax law enforcement of patent infringement against individual customers indicates that propagation limitations primarily impact commercial plant sellers. I’m showing how it can be done and not selling. Thank you for your concern and propagate at your own risk!

[@donnaj1049]

@@gardeningatthesimongettinorth I would still be nervous about it as you are putting this out there publically on You Tube. Yes, at your own risk.

[@shawnwaters3274]

She's 24 yrs dog life 😅

[@gardeningatthesimongettinorth]

LOL 😂

[@watsok]

I do not care but.. The plants propagated are patented. Perhaps not identifying them by name will keep letters from Lawyers away. Good description.

[@gardeningatthesimongettinorth]

Thank you, hopefully I don’t have issues. I’m not selling them just experimenting 🤷🏻‍♀️ Thank you for watching 🥰🌺

[@jenniferburger9967]

Pretty sure it's okay unless you sell it. Propagation happens naturally, so it's just helping the natural process.

[@JoseMartinez-df2db]

Propagation isn't illegal. It's only illegal if she sells it. I'm going to start propagating mine this year.
