In this video, I will show you how to propagate bay leaf cuttings in water in early spring. Rooting Bay Laurel (Laurus Nobilis) cuttings in water is an easy process where you start with taking cuttings off the bay leaf tree.
1 - So, the first step is to take off the cuttings.
2 - The next step is to remove most of the leaves from the cuttings leaving just two top leaves.
3 - The third step is to cut off the bottom bit of the stems.
4 - Next step is to cut the tips of the leaves and dip the stems in cinnamon powder (as a rooting hormone).
5 - Put all cuttings in a masons jar or suitable plastic container 3/4 filled with clean water.
6 - Looking after your cuttings: Keep the jar indoors, near the window, changing the water twice a week. Once a week you can add to water some homemade rooting hormone to soak for an hour. Change to clean water after the soak. See how to do homemade rooting hormone in my previous video:

7 - In about 8 to 10 weeks, the small roots should emerge.
I will show you the progress of these cuttings in one of my next videos. Rooted cuttings should be featured then.
