As with propagating roses, hydrangeas offer some options. You can root hydrangeas from "hardwood" cuttings taken in late fall or early winter when the year's new stems have grown firm and mature. But hardwood cuttings are slow and challenging to root.1 Most professional hydrangea growers use "softwood" cuttings, which root quickly and yield far better results.
Time your softwood propagation for late spring or early summer, when new stems first start to harden. In most regions, this happens between May and mid-July. At this stage, new hydrangea stems bend but snap off easily, and cuttings are predisposed to vigorous growth. A premium rooting hormone helps stimulate root development even more. https://www.gardentech.com/blog/how-to-g...m-cuttings
