Hydrangea Propagation

Flowers, Gardening Basics, Lawn and Garden, Video by Danny Lipford

Ground layering is an easy way to propagate hydrangeas. First, cut a notch in one of the branches of the main plant or scrape a little bark off the underside. Take the same branch, bend it over, and bury it in the ground. Make sure at least one leaf node will be underground. Use a brick to hold the branch down and retain moisture. When the branch forms its own roots, cut it loose and pot it like a cutting.

    Thanks, Ground layering looks easy. Next would be questions about prunning, but at a latter time. Must go.

    I especially like the video.

    Thanks again.

    When is a good time to do ground layering? Your plant looked like it was about to flower. The video was great, really helpful, thanks, Cecily
