With so many forms of plant propagation, choosing one can be overwhelming. What works for some plant species doesn\u2019t work for others. That\u2019s why you should know what method to use for a particular plant before starting a propagation project. Here is a list of different plant varieties and the best propagation methods for each one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Propagation Techniques by Plant<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Arborvitae<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Arborvitae cuttings are rooted in coarse sand or another suitable medium. Using intermittent misting during the summer months is recommended. Rooting cuttings in the fall should be done with the help of a cold frame. A seedling heat mat for bottom heat is a lifesaver during the colder winters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ash Trees<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Ash tree seeds should be collected when ripe and planted outdoors immediately. There is a high success rate in germination in the first season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Azaleas (Deciduous)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Deciduous Azaleas seeds should be collected in the fall and planted as soon as possible. You will need a propagation tray or flat to plant the seeds in – they should be kept under warm natural or artificial light. Propagation of Azaleas can also be done by softwood cuttings<\/a>, with a higher success rate when using intermittent mist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Azaleas (Evergreen)<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Generally, Evergreen Azaleas are propagated by hardwood cuttings taken in the late fall. For successful propagation, we recommend using a seedling mat – it provides bottom heat for your cuttings. Alternatively, you can clone this plant with softwood cuttings<\/a> taken in the late spring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Barberry<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Barberry varieties can be propagated either by softwood or hardwood cuttings. Softwood cuttings should be taken in late spring, while hardwood cuttings are available in the late fall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Basil<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Propagating Basil<\/a> is simple by using softwood cuttings. Softwood cuttings can be taken anytime during the summer months. Alternatively, you can propagate Basil by planting seeds. The plant can be rooted indoors year-round under fluorescent plant growth lights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beautyberry<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Softwood cuttings are useful when propagating Beautyberry. The cutting can be taken any time during the summer, starting in early June.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beauty bush<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Beauty bush is another plant propagated by taking softwood cuttings during the summer months beginning in early June.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beech (European)<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Seeds are needed to propagate European Beech. Seeds should be collected when ripe and planted outdoors immediately after.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beech (Purple Leaf Weeping)<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To propagate Purple Leaf Weeping Beech, you first have to grow a Beech variety from seed. Then Purple Leaf Weeping Beech is grafted onto your grown Beech.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Birch (White)<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

White Birch is propagated from seed. They should be collected when ripe and planted outdoors during the autumn months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Birch (Weeping White)<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Grafting is the only way to reproduce Weeping White Birch. Attach your plant variety onto a Birch rootstock. For that, you first have to grow a Birch from seed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blue Mist Shrub<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Blue Mist Shrub (Caryopteris x clandonensis) is propagated by softwood cuttings – the cuttings can be taken anytime during the summer months beginning in early June.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boston Ivy<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Plant enthusiasts can grow Boston<\/a> Ivy from seeds planted outdoors in mid-spring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boxwood<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Boxwood can be propagated in a few ways. Use softwood cuttings in early summer and an intermittent mist for a consistent watering routine. Alternatively, hardwood cuttings can be used if you have a cold frame. Using a bottom heat mat makes it possible to root Boxwood in the winter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Burning Bush<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Burning Bush can be reproduced either by softwood cuttings or by hardwood cuttings. Softwood cuttings are taken in late May or early June. The latter is taken from mid to late fall and rooted in an outdoor cold frame.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Butterfly Bush<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Like many other plants, Butterfly Bush (Buddleia davidii) is propagated by softwood cuttings that are cut anytime during the summer. You can take your cuttings as soon as early June.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cherries (Weeping)<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To propagate Weeping Cherries, grow a regular cherry plant from seeds. The seeds are collected when ripe, stratified for 150 over the winter, and planted in spring. The cherry plant is used as a rootstock, and a Weeping Cherry is grafted onto it. It is also possible to reproduce the plant from softwood cuttings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chinese Stranvaesia<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

During the summer months of June and July, Chinese stranvaesia can be grown from cuttings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clematis<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To propagate Clematis, take softwood cuttings in late spring and use an intermittent mist system to guarantee a successful result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cotoneaster<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Reproducing Cotoneaster is easy and can be done with softwood and hardwood cuttings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crabapple (Flowering)<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Budding or grafting are two methods used for propagating Crabapple. Crabapple trees are budded or grafted onto a rootstock. To grow the rootstock, collect the seeds as they ripen in autumn and immediately plant them outdoors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crape Myrtle<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Crape Myrtle (Lagerstroemia) is reproduced by softwood cuttings. And as with all softwood cuttings, they are available in summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cypress (Blue False)<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

For best results, Blue False Cypress should be reproduced by semi-hardwood cuttings that can be taken in late August. Then the cuttings are rooted under intermittent mist. However, it is also possible to propagate this plant by hardwood cuttings<\/a> if you have a seedling heat mat for bottom heat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cypress (Gold Thread)<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Gold Thread Cypress is propagated from hardwood cuttings or semi-hardwood cuttings. Provide the cuttings with bottom heat if you\u2019re using hardwood cuttings. For semi-hardwood cuttings, use an intermittent mist system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Daphne<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Softwood cuttings are used to propagate Daphne (Daphne caucasica). The cuttings are ready to be made as soon as June.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Daylilies<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The best way to reproduce Daylilies is by division. Spring and fall are the best times for this project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dogwood (Chinese)<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Chinese Dogwoods can be grown from seed or cuttings. The seeds can be picked in the fall. If you want to plant outside, plant the seeds in moist peat moss for 100days. Store the seeds in a refrigerator for another 100 days, and they will be ready to plant outside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using softwood cuttings is an easy way to propagate Pink Dogwoods. Grafting is also an option that works – bud or graft Pink Dogwood onto a White Dogwood seedling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dogwood (Red Twig)<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

There are many ways to propagate Red Twig Dogwoods that can be done during multiple seasons. Layering is the best method if you want to start your propagation project in April or May. In June, you can use softwood cuttings. In the late autumn months, hardwood cuttings are ready to be taken. Propagation of this tree is extremely easy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dogwood (Yellow Twig)<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Similarly, with the Red Twig Dogwood, Yellow Twig Dogwood can be propagated by layering, softwood cuttings, or hardwood cuttings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dogwood (Variegated)<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To propagate Pink Dogwood, you can use either softwood cuttings or grafting. Try out both to find out which method you prefer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dogwood (White)<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

One way to reproduce White Dogwood is by softwood cuttings. Or you can grow them from seed if you have enough patience. You can find ripe seeds in the fall. Store them in moist peat moss at approximately 70 degrees for 100 days and then in a refrigerator for an additional 100 days. Only then are they ready to be planted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Elders<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Canadian Hemlock trees are grown from seed. Collect pine cones in the fall – this ensures they are collected before they open and release their seeds into the air. Place the cones in a bag to catch the seeds as the cones open, and store the seeds in a cool and dry place over the winter months. In spring, stratify the seeds for 30 days by placing them in moist peat moss in your refrigerator, then plant them outside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Holly (English)<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
