Hi, this is beautiful. My hydrangea is not doing that good this year. Just fed it and hope. At what season and from what part of the plant do you take the cuttings from? I'm very good with cuttings (99%).

Thanks ......Nice to see it flower this year....

I took cuttings Alex from our main plant that we had to leave when we moved.
that would have been in the April....left them in water overnight, then into rooting powder, and into potting compost to establish roots, they did seem to take forever, but took eventually. Its great fun trying to grow from cuttings, don't you think....I have another in the Garden I did last year, but there's no flowers just stems and leaves, I will take probably four cuttings from that one, as I would like to establish plants for the Lavender Alley, I think the two colours should blend well together....
