Fall Plant Propagation Updates: How my Summer Cuttings Rooted

In my latest YouTube video I went through and checked on many of the plants I’ve taking cuttings from this summer. There are a variety of plants in the video including rosemary, ninebark, fothergilla, boxwoods, crape myrtle, and cherry laurels. This was actually the first time I’ve tried rooting fothergilla and I had pretty good success taking a few small cuttings.

Here is a list of links to the individual rooting methods I used for each of these plants in case you would like to review how I did them and give them a try for yourself!
