How do I propagate my hydrangea?

Answer by  mammakat (11147)

Early in the season take 4-6" new growth, softwood, cuttings with 4 buds or 2-3 sets of leaves on it. Dip the cutting in rooting mix, and pinch the leaves from the bottom buds. Place 2" deep in a mix of perlite and peat moss, NOT potting soil. Keep moist.

Some say the best way to propagate the hydrangea is to select a branch that did not flower this season. Snip about 3-6" off (with about 3 sets of leaves) and snip off two bottom sets of leaves. Put in moist, balanced soil and cover in loose plastic.
