Propagating hydrangeas
This is second attempt to propagate hydrangea and I am using water to do
that. My first one failed, now the second ones shows some signs of success. After 2weeks in water, the extreme end is showing some kind of growth which reminds me of jelly fish!! There is a white web like structure on the extreme end and on one the leaf nodes(it is in water too). I can see that the leaves are growing and are happy. My question is how long do I wait before transplating in the soil? And what I am seeing, is it precursor to actual roots, or roots itself? Thanks :) |

They say water rooting is hit and miss but offer two other methods. -- Wes Dukes (wdukes.pobox@com) Swap the . and the @ to email me please. spam@www.spam.com is a garbage address. |
Propagating hydrangeas
I had looked at the mentioned website and didn't see anything what I am
seeing. I also tried a few google searches, but nothing similar came up. So I am looking for peoples' experiences.

I would use semi-ripe cuttings (stems still green but firm) in 50%sand/50% peat or hardwood cuttings outside over winter. |
