Re: propagating hydrangeas

Thanks to all who responded; I want to make sure I understand what it is
I should do:

I take a 3 node cutting from the bush; take all the leaves off except
the top ones, which I cut in half;  

then I put the cutting in potting mixture and water; and rootone should
go on the nodes, or I can make rooting hormone from willow limbs soaked
in water; or I can do this all without rooting hormone;

it's best to do this after bloom, but since my bush hasn't yet bloomed,
the cutting can be done in August;

then I keep the cutting well watered and by October I should be able to
put it in the soil.

Is that right?

TIA
