How to grow hydrangeas in water

1. Remove the leaves

Generally speaking, it is best to water-grow branches after they have finished flowering, combined with branches cut from pruning, so that the utilization rate of the branches is higher. Hydrangeas planted in water must have an ideal environment. The branches inserted in the water cannot have any leaves, that is, there cannot be leaves below the water surface. All leaves in the underwater position must be removed, otherwise they will easily rot.

2. Rooting agent soaking

When growing hydrangeas in water, soak the branches in the water or with a rooting agent before inserting them into water to stimulate the formation of healing tissue and facilitate rooting.

3. Cultivate in a dark environment

The growth of the root system during hydroponics requires a dark environment, and the water part of the branches should be placed in a dark environment, which will be more conducive to the growth of the root system. If the light is too strong, it will inhibit the growth of new roots. It is not recommended to place hydrangeas that have just been water-planted in areas with too bright light or too strong winds, as this will cause the leaves to dehydrate and wilt or even the branches to rot, resulting in failure of the water planting.
