Hibiscus is a perennial shrub, which blooms in summer. It requires a lot of sun, a lot of water and thrives in rich soil. Watch this video to see how to propagate it. Hibiscus update: • Propagating Hibiscus f...
This comment is 3 years late- lol, but I also propagate tomatoes. I have found that if you wrap a sandwich bag, filled with wet soil around a stem near a branch, it will develop roots in the bag. It will take about 2 weeks, depending on the variety. But this way you don’t have to remove the cutting until it is ready to plant. And it may even have fruit at the time of cutting.
Great video! I think that physical contact with a solid (such as soil or clay pebbles) stimulates the white growth to extend into new roots sooner. I have had some in water for several months, and the white bumps have not developed roots. I have propagated a few into new plants. Also a the soil or pebbles surrounding the stems block sunlight, which keeps algae growth from forming on the new roots. These are just some observations I have seen over the years. 😊
What do you think of propagating arebic jasmine from cutting in the water?.. does it work the same way as your this video? I have put the cutting in the water and after few weeks now I am seeing the tiny 2 new leaves on cutting..nothing more! And in the water the twig got little plumpy that means is it progressing towards roots development?
I haven't tried propagating it in water, but tried it in soil. Sometimes leaves appear just because it's stored energy. If it looks solid, may be roots are developing. If it looks soft, maybe it's rotting
@@EasyPeasyGardening l put willow leaves in buckets with water and let it steep , then l water my seeds with it . l water my cuttings with it too. l propagate hydrangeas and hardy hibiscus by cuttings and l get roots really fast.
