About four or five years ago, another person on this list, Tom in the
state of Georgia, sent me several rooted cuttings of oak leaf hydrangea,
which I had seen growing in gardens in Ontario, Canada, and mentioned
wanting them to this list.
Only one of them lived, and it is finally looking like something. Not
yet flowering, but looking more like a bush than a twig with leaves.
Someone here wrote recently about taking cuttings from hydrangea and
propagating them this way. I did this, took a small shoot and put it in
water, but it didn't grow roots and eventually got looking wan and
droopy, so I put it out of its' misery.
Anyone know how to do it right?
TIA
