I just cut a piece off and put in water grew roots in about two weeks then put in a pot and done. Didn’t do all that plastic or cut any leaves just put in water.

Chrysanthemums do root really well in water as a good alternative to taking cuttings potted on in soil. That’s great it worked really well for you. Where did you put your rooted cuttings in water to develop their roots? On a windowsill indoors? Thanks for watching.

Thank you very much for sharing 🌱✂️🌱🌸🌝👍

Well done, your a great speaker and well organized. Great job editing, lighting and sound . I enjoyed your video.

I have had great success just sticking mum cuttings directly into the garden outside in the late spring, once I had a mum break off a stem that fell behind my green giant arborvitae and it rooted itself and it became a full size yellow mum by fall.

Thanks so much for watching. Thats great you had the right conditions in the soil and weather to get chrysanthemum cuttings taking directly that way. Saves a lot of time!

thanks for the video! I was wondering about the little buds on my cuttings. Now I know to snip them off to encourage root growth. :)

Hi, thanks for watching and I hope you are able to successfully make more plants from the cuttings of the 10 you bought. Good luck for lots of flowers later in the summer.

I have taken the broken stems from mine, have cleared the bottom leaves, pinched off the spent blooms but not the closed buds and stuck it into a propagating container. It sat on my windowsill which faces north with bright light and never received any direct sunlight. I made sure to replace the water every so many days and would gently clean off any algae growing on it. After a couple weeks it grew roots. Once it had enough roots I stuck it into a nursing pot with miracle grow soil and placed it outside in full shade. Now after a month and a half later it’s still doing good. I’m in zone 9b Deep South Texas. I’m still propagating more and waiting for roots so I can follow the same procedure.

That sounds like it has worked really well for you Rebecca. Chrysanthemums really are great for propagating and once you have found a way that works for you it’s worth sticking with and hopefully getting lots of new chrysanthemum plants to enjoy.

I think we are all ready for some spring weather now. Having the greenhouse has made such a difference and it is a lovely place to go and potter in when it is not quite so nice outside. Hope you enjoy the rest of the videos. Happy growing 🌱

Super video Catherine. Have you done any other vids on chrysanthemums? I'm going to order some plants this year but they're a bit of a mystery to me - are they perennial? How do you overwinter them? etc etc. I think they are really beautiful, so can't wait to give them a go. I live in a pretty cold place in Australia, so possibly a similar climate to you.

Thanks Alison, I just started growing chrysanthemums a couple of years ago and really like them. Lots to learn though! This is my first video on them but hopefully will follow them the whole way through the season doing more videos as we go along. Each year I have done it I have dug up the chrysanthemums at the end of the season, let them dry and stored over winter, then March time I pot them up, give them a water and a month later when they have new growth I take cuttings from them. It’s these new cuttings I will get flowers from this season and I don’t use the parent plant. I also buy in a few new plug plants each year too. There are some hardy varieties that are supposed to be perennial so I bought a few this year to see if they will survive a Scottish winter for me 🤞 Will def keep the videos going on chrysanthemums and show you what they are doing as the season goes on x

hi can we just use potting compost and sharp sand for put the cuttings in do you water after putting them in the compost, how often we water them , do you make wholes in the poly bag .thanks

@cloudberryflowers-flowerfarm

Жыл бұрын

Hi, yes that sounds fine to use a mix of potting compost and sharp sand. You are looking to use a mix that has good drainage. I would water the compost before inserting the cuttings. The poly bag I don’t make holes in but I do remove it as soon as there is signs of growth. Every couple of days I would check the compost and if getting on dry side give it a water. You want it to stay moist without being too wet your cuttings rot.

Thankyou Catherine. How often would we water our cuttings, and would that be from the top or from below? Have a nice weekend 🙂

@cloudberryflowers-flowerfarm

Hi Kim, you need to keep the soil moist all the time for your cuttings so check it everyday and if the compost is looking dry give the pot a water. From the top is fine with a small greenhouse watering can. You don’t want it waterlogged though so just enough water to moisten the soil. Have a lovely weekend x

Thanks. I noticed that you placed the cuttings along the edges of the pots. Do you find that those root faster vs ones in the middle of the pots?

@cloudberryflowers-flowerfarm

Жыл бұрын

Hi Annie, thanks for watching, yes they do tend to do better around the edges with better root systems. Growing against the side the first roots bump into the edge break and branch into even more roots resulting in more overall than those in the middle.

Thank you for this❤love it!❤so i just have a question, how do you keep seedling alive? Or keep them away from fungus? Because mine always rots and die, i have wasted about 80$ now for seeds and they kept dying even in warm greenhouse, please help me😢🥺🥺🥺

Thank you 😊 I am so glad you enjoyed the video. I think the trick is not overwatering as the little seedlings don’t like too much water and good ventilation so getting the vents and doors open in the greenhouse as much as possible. Getting seeds off any heat mat once they have germinated and grow on cooler in the greenhouse can also help.

Hello, thanks for watching. Yes you can divide chrysanthemums in the spring when you see new growth on the plant and this will provide new plants for you.

How did you bed them over winter if in a pot? Do you just set it aside in a cool dark place or do you keep watering so often etc. Thank you!

Hello yes I just pop them in a crate with some compost and leave them in a frost free dark place over winter and then bring them out, pot them up in March and give them a water then to get them growing. I don’t water them over the winter time.

Would a 2 litre pop bottle be ok to use as a mini greenhouse?

Why do you plant the cutting by the edge of pot?

@cloudberryflowers-flowerfarm

9 ай бұрын

Hi, thanks for watching. The idea is that the roots divide more quickly if you plant them at the edge. The roots quickly hit the side of pot as a boundary and this forces them to branch creating more roots.

hi i am from London and please advise how and when to over winter them and what you do to wake them up in spring..

@cloudberryflowers-flowerfarm

Жыл бұрын

Hi thanks so much for watching. If you live in a mild area you could overwinter them outside and just provide some mulch over them. I am too cold in winter for that so in the autumn after flowering I lift them, shake any excess soil from the roots and cut the top growth down to about 6-8inches. Any excess leaves etc I remove so it is just the stem and roots left. This is then stored in a crate of dry compost with other chrysanthemums. The crate goes in a cool frost free place for storage. In late winter I wake them up by putting the chrysanthemum in a pot of compost and watering it, keeping it frost free. It will then start to put on growth I can take cuttings from for new plants.
