Thank you, ma’am. 3 years ago I think a bird brought me a magenta clematis plant via it’s droppings because one day I spotted a glorious magenta flower and then learned that it was clematis. I love this plant, the blooms are magnificent and it’s neat the way it climbs. I’m so thankful God made it possible to make cuttings from it. This should be great, I hope to try now.
Oh wow! I wish you all the best! It sounds like a very special plant, in multiple ways. Plan for 75% of the rootings not making it. I think my success rate from the batch in the video was 9 out of 32. So plant accordingly. Keep me posted.
Thank you for the detailed instructions! I, accidentally, clipped off a string of my plant, with the help of your video, I’m hopping to get at least one little one rooting.
I You are quite welcome! I'm glad you found the video helpful. Remember, the success rate is about 30%, so start more than you want. I wish you all the best! 🌱
Found my clematis on a discounted end season rack two years ago. Love plants that challenge me to revive. My clematis I saved one died two going so strong. My first time every planting just followed RUclips instructions and have beautiful plants.Thanks for the tips to making more clematis. Truly my favorite plant. Thanks Again Happy Growing!!💐💐🪴🪴
Happy gardening to you too! My husband is the patron saint of lost plant causes; he has brought some totally back to life ☺️🌿. So, I understand that you are attracted to the challenge. I'm glad you found the video useful! All the best with your propagation 🌺
Thank you for this very clear and well illustrated video. Last spring I bought a small Clematis 'Henryi' plant with beautiful white blooms. I wasn't sure it would survive this winter since I grow in pots in zone 5a and have to put my perennials in our insulated garage (with mixed results). But miraculously it has some small buds this spring, so I will definitely use your propagating tips this year to grow more, as it seems like a hardy variety. Thank you so much for sharing this excellent video with us!
I love hearing people's stories. When you have a good plant variety and good plant stock, this is a good propagation technique. I with you all the best! They will not all succeed, so plant more than you want. My success rate has been between 25% and 30%.
Thank you for your encouragement and letting me know of your success rate with this technique. I definitely will plant extra. Thank you again for your help and sharing!

Sooo glad this showed up. I'm moving from one state to another the Clematis I have in ground are 6 years old and didn't want to dig them up to take with me..this video is a great way for me to take my Clematis with me Thank You💖🌺
Thanks for a simple and clear video. I have one small vine that surprised me last year and gave me 1 flower then. This year so far it has blessed me with 4 beautiful flowers. I love this plant and I thank you for showing how to propagate new ones. 🦋
Hi Wendy, Sorry for the delayed response, but I just saw your comment on propagating clematis now. I'm glad you enjoyed the video and wish you success with your ever-growing clematis plant. 😊 🌸
Thank you so much! I learned something new. Have always wanted to thicken my thinned out Jack, believing I'll just buy another to grow along side the original. Now, I can plant in the grown cuttings for a fuller plant. Wonderful idea.
Using hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) for cleaning the pots has the advantage that it also works on potential mould, and it's completely biodegradable (2x H2O and O2 = water and oxygen). Thank you for great videos!
Sorry, I didn’t see your comment until now! Thank you for that. Great tip! I’ve always hesitated using bleach because of what it can do to your clothes if it splatters. Thank you for watching and commenting. Happy holidays!
Thank you. I love clematis, I own only one and it’s like yours in color I guess. It has shown to be surprisingly strong for it remained alive in a regular size pot with hardly any care as I was absent from this home for years. Now I I live here and is doing well. It’s a great video.
I did not believe it was possible to do this,but last autumni snippedcuttings growing over car park wall. Could not believe my eyes when they started growing. 1 in flower now one inch Montana which is very vigorous, the other is a small yellow autumn/ winter flowering type , they kept alive over winter. From Scotland. Before this have purchased clematis plants which died.
I have never cut my clematis's back. They are HUGE! And the bloom like crazy. They're done now, except for the double bloomed Clematis. It's still Flowering like crazy. I am in Western NC.
Greetings to western North Carolina! With your climate, I’m not surprised that your clematis grow huge. I think that one of the main reasons to cut clematis is to keep bloom closer to the ground, as well as keep the clematis behaved and fitting to the trellis.
We ran twine up for the top of the trellis. The blooms tend to stay near the bottom portion of the Clematis plant. I've had the biggest Clematis for about 30 years. I've had the double bloomed for about 10 years. Plenty of sunshine through the early part of the day, and shaded after. Well mulched. Love them.
My purple clematis is now opening, going into July 2022. It is mixed in with a one time a year bloomer pink one. I tell my family, going to Lowe's to buy some more dead plants, plant, water and loving care they spring right back. Where you were setting looks so beautiful and peaceful :)
Thank you! I love the look of mixing climbers, and colors, up a trellis. This year I’ve tried both white Thunbergia and Cathedral Bells on the same trellis. I’m afraid the Thunbergia might bully out the Cathedral Bells, but we’ll see. Mixing colors of the same plant is more reliable. Have a great summer!
Great informative video. The soil needle you have to make the holes is called a Dibber but you refer to it as a Dibble which made me smile here in England. Not a criticism at all just wanted to make you aware. Once again great video and we will try replanting our Clematis cuttings. Stay safe and well. 🙂
🙂 . I've never seen a dibber here in the US, but treasure it as a souvenir from my trip to England. I appreciate the correction! Glad you enjoyed the video and all the best with your clematis cuttings!
Hi, this batch is already given away or planted in our back yard by our garden shed. I had about 8 or 9 cuttings survive. Here's a link to a video with some of the grown-up cuttings. Jackmanii comes in at 7:03. ruclips.net/video/fmz5OqGM0DQ/видео.html
Good question, I’ve never tried it, because the stems of the clematis aren’t just right; I like them to be semi-green/semi woody. If you have a spring blooming variety, which tends to have woody stems, I’d give it a try. good luck! Do remember, that the success rate is about 25 to 30% for me. So plant more than you need.
I’m working with autumn clematis. I’ve tried seeds, two years that failed. I cut some from.a neighbor who was going to tear it down. First time I had a complete failure. I succeeded in planting a weed of some kind. Today I tried to more cuttings. I didn’t get any old wood. I hope it works this time. Thanks for putting up this video.
im pretty new to gardening snd flowers if grown and watered quite a few things I thought were flowers that turned out to ve weeds lol. but getting better at being avle to tell which are good and not now
Halo, I just did 2 rounds of clematis propagating in the summer. All not successful. They were all done indoor (it was too hot outdoor), similar to your method showed but with a plastic dome cover with opening. Second round I added heat pad. Both not successful. That’s a wonderful video you showed. I am going to try using grow light.
I am so sorry to hear about your experience with Clematis. I'm sure the grow lights will help. But, be sure to give them less light if the leaves start showing brown patches. Getting the light right is important, but especially with Clematis. All the best!
Hello RoseAnn! It sounds like you are a snowbird. How fun to garden in two such different zones. Other than Calla Lilies, I know very little of tropicals. Enjoy!
Glad I could introduce you to something new in gardening! Flowering perennials differ with respect to the best way to propagate them. The easiest way to propagate many perennials for the residential gardener is to divide plants. Clematis is difficult to divide, being that it is a vine. Therefore, taking cuttings is a good option. That said, nurseries often take cuttings to propagate plants.
Never thought of taking cuttings from my clematis. I'll have to try this. I don't have a grow light. Looks like I need to invest on one later this year. Thanks for the video. :)
Love this video! I assume once they are well rooted after 10-12 weeks you just continue to winter them over under the grow lights until safe to plant in spring? Thanks!
This is very clear and helpful. Thank you. I had to pull out an entire clematis that was overtaking a rose of Sharon. I couldn't get the entire length of the roots, but a good deal of the root clump is still together. Could I cut off the top of the plant and regrow it in potting soil? Thanks again
Hi Laura. I'm glad you found the video helpful! If I were you, I would most certainly try to replant your clematis. They are pretty tough and it probably will do just fine. As you say, cut off the top of the plant so the roots don't try to support all the green. Potting soil should also help. Good luck! 🌿
What a lovely lady. Loved your easy to follow tutorial, thank you so much. I've just planted Nelly Moser, Warsawski Nike and Hagley Hybrid and would love to take cutting when the time comes. I'm in Ireland and wondered if taking cuttings is done at the same time of year as the USA, can you advise please. Again, thank you so much ☘☘
Greetings to Ireland! I'm so pleased you found the video helpful. I would say that you could take cuttings as soon as some of the stems begin to harden and get somewhat "woody". I have found they have the greatest likelihood of success. So, not being that familiar with your growing season, I would imagine you could do that in the July/August timeframe. My Jackmanii are almost at that point now. Your selection of Clematis sound lovely! 🌺🌿🌺
I never knew you could do this! I’m just wondering how long it takes for the plants to be big and strong enough to plant in the actual garden? I see that you’re doing this in September? When would they go into the ground? Thank you for the video. 😊
Hi! I over-winter them indoors and plant in the spring. I feature one of my root cuttings in the following video ruclips.net/video/Mb2FQaQ1iLk/видео.html This clematis in the video took about two years to grow to five feet tall. I used two plants for the trellis in the video. Hope that helps. Good luck!
Hi, I leave them under a grow light until I see roots coming out of the bottom or they start pushing out new leaves. In our climate, there is not enough time for them to root before winter sets in. In other climates (see other comments), they can be left outdoors. Regardless, they need attention and TLC.

Thank you! How was your success rate on this tray? Are they in the ground and thriving now? Did you keep these inside under grow lights like this all winter and then plant them in the ground the following spring? I'm wondering if I could put some in the ground now?? I have a good sized deep purple clematis that I'd love to spread around the yard. I LOVE THEM!!!!
Greetings fellow clematis lover! It’s been a few years now, and I believe I had about 10 healthy plants come from that tray. I planted three of them to make a nice large clematis cluster in the garden. It is featured in my vines and climber video. I think it’s #1. After I took the cuttings, which I did at the end of summer, I put them under grow lights for winter. It might seem like a lot of work, but I love some gardening to do during the winter months and enjoy nurturing the little guys. It is a wonderful way to clone a really good plant. I wish you all the best! You could certainly try cuttings now and planting them - that’s a fun thing about gardening - trying new things and seeing if they work. 🌿🌞🌹
It’s different all over the US, even within a single city there can be many accents and mispronunciations. Two “o”s = oooh/ō, the long “o” sound. Roots, roof, boots, etc., but we hear a lot of “rutz”, “ruff”, “butz”, though somehow people seem to manage the word “boots” better than the roots and roof. Creek is another ear-scraper. Two “e”s = the long vowel sound, but a lot of people in small towns say “crick”. Small-town folks (or uneducated city folks) leave the “t”s out of nearly everything as well... kitten, curtain, winter, and mountain all become ki’-enn, or ki’-unn; cur’-unn: win’-er; and mou’-unn or moww’-unn (rhymes with the word “wow”). And yes, they will look at you as though YOU are the one mispronouncing the words, if you include the vowels and consonants, and pronounce them all correctly. Or they conclude that you are “uppity”. They just about fall off their chair if they hear the letter “T” enunciated. You just might be able to put them into a state of shock if you said “kittens with mittens in the mountains in the wintertime”...
Jessica John, Yes, and despite all the variations, we can all still understand each other pretty well. From across the pond wven with their Cockney, Geordie, etc. accents, to the US with their endless regional accents and Brooklyn, Jersey, Creole, and all of them in between, it all just helps us better understand foreign speakers for whom English is a 2nd, 10th, or 20th language. I like all the variations, and when Americans get a bit too snobby about a foreign accent or a little broken English, I simply ask them how well they speak their chosen second or third language,; or, as they’re rudely pretending not to understand a foreign visitor who is speaking perfectly easy-to-understand English, I ask them how well they spoke Russian when they went to Moscow, or French when they went to Paris last year. Shuts them right up. We all know the singular answer to all those questions. :)
Jessica John i see pronunciation of different word like an accent. Like Roof and Ruff (for the top of a house). It’s how a person says it identifies where they are from.
This is definitely good to know. I have a Lady Kyoko in bloom right now and she is beautiful! Thank you for all your information. I will have to give it a go here in Texas.
What kind of vine is that on the other side of your door over the hydrangea? Thanks for sharing the tip to plant the something at the base to shade the roots. I would have never thought of that!
Hi, the vine is a cypress vine. It's really quite lovely. Here's a link to a little blog I did on it. rosannesgarden.com/?s=cypress+vine Glad you liked the tip!
I had 2 clematis and lost both of them I think to rabbits, but my mom has some and I think I will see if we can try this out. They are a beautiful vine.
Thanks! I imagine a sunny porch could work, as long as it wasn't too drafty. I've never tried it, because I haven't a sunny porch, but I do have grow lights. Give it a try!
Hi. Great video. I live in SE Minnesota so have similar weather as you obviously. Maybe I missed it, but when do you plant your new plants? Do you keep them inside over winter or plant them in late fall? Thanks a lot.
Hi Minnesota neighbor! I overwinter the cuttings indoors under grow lights over the winter. It gives me something to nurture before I get going with seedlings. If they were ready (roots visible on the bottom of the pot), I'd rather plant them outdoors though.
No problem getting them to root, form good root systems, but how the hell to get them over the Winter without them "damping off"? Do hundreds of cuttings on misting bed, but Clematis are a horror at the post rooting phase. Pot them on and keep them moist but definitely not wet, but they mostly end up dead by Springtime.
You sound very experienced. My issues have been more with the rooting. Perhaps it has to do with the stems used for cutting? I use stems on the woodier side - slower to root, but tougher when they do. Just a thought. Or, could it be that Jackmanii is stronger? Thanks for the comment.
I just found your video and plan to try this with my Huldine clematis in the fall (zone 5b) - like you I enjoy gardening under my lights in the winter as well. What rooting powder do you recommend?
Hi, I'm so pleased that you are trying this with your Huldine. They are so gorgeous! As to your question, I just use a general blend that I bought at my local nursery. I don't think they had choices. I've had it for years. Good luck with your Huldine!
Hi, great video! I am from Villa la Angostura, Argentina...and I have a clematis that I would like to propagate...at what time have you made the cuttings, in the spring? and another query has tried to propagate clematis from air layering? Greetings from Argentina!
Greetings to Argentina! I propagate mine in the late summer when the vines are becoming woody. I'm not sure how cold it gets in your winter, but here, I overwinter the cuttings indoors under a grow light. In a more moderate climate, you could try keeping them or moving them outdoors. I know nothing about air layering...but now I'm curious 😉
I want to do this with my Veveyen Pernell but it flowers twice a year, now and in September. She's a multi-frilled beauty now and a lovely shade of lilac,in September she is a single flowering about 6" wide. Any ideas?
Hmm. I'd try it in the fall after she flowers, assuming you can over-winter her for the cold season. My best results are for cuttings that are almost woody, which happens later in the season. Not sure where you live or your climate, but you could also try a few cuttings (not to disturb the Spring flowers) now and see what happens. Sorry, I don't have experience with this variety, but I did look it up (Vyvyen Pernell) and it looks lovely. Good luck!
I haven't tried it, but it would be worth a try. It depends on your climate. The stems need to be not too green or too woody, which for me is best harvested in mid-late summer. If our summer were longer, I don't think I'd need the grow light.
@@RosannesGarden OK would you put them outside in the sun or no direct sun and plastic lid or no lid?? Also i have containers that the plastic lids have a dial on top so you can open the holes on top of the lid for circulation or leave them closed, would you do open or closed?
Once the new stems start getting a little tougher/woodier, the cuttings should work well. Being that you are further ahead in your growing season, I imagine you could start in July, maybe even now. Remember to take more cuttings than you want in the end, as some won't take. Good luck!
Yes, my Jackmanii develops shoots from old wood. In the fall, I cut down some stems to 5 feet, some stems to 4 feet, and some stems to 3 feet. In the spring this allows for staggered growth as new shoots grow from the old woody stems.
This was very informative and I'd like to try it. If you start the cuttings in the fall, what do you do with them after they root? Can you plant them outdoors before winter ? I live in Quebec where winters are harsh.
Great. I wish you all the best on it . I keep the cuttings under grow lights all winter and plant them in early spring. It is work, and a little nerve-wracking going on winter vacations, but well worth it.
Rosanne is the expert But ! here in England I bought a heated propagator $16 US and I can leave my plants , (I go to Morocco, like you go to Florida)! all winter. The humidity stays inside and by Spring they have rooted and starting to grow !
My starts have new leaves coming on after about a month and a half, does this mean they have roots now and its OK to transplant them in my yard now or should I wait awhile longer?
I’m wondering…after they root? Do you plant them outside? Or keep them indoor through the winter? I live in MN zone 4 also and garden much like you. Taking many cuttings, and saving seeds. But I have never tried clematis cuttings. Thank you for sharing your good advise 😉
Hi neighbor! I do keep them indoors all winter long. I have grow lights and actually enjoy the winter "hobby" of nurturing for them. Glad you found the video helpful! 🌺
Greetings to California! Regarding your question, the answer is "no", the original plant is a thriving perennial. I took cuttings to propagate new plants to have elsewhere in the garden. My Jackmanii stock is so strong and good that I wanted to "clone" the plant for other areas in our garden.
Thanks! Those little snips are great. I love them. I believe they were originally sold as rose snips. I bought them from Smith and Hawkin. Good luck on your hunt.
The very last scene of the video has a picture of the plastic lid that I used with them. It is quite high (10 inches or so). I mist the leaves daily, or every other day for many weeks. This means that I water the plants very little for the first few weeks. But, whenever I mist them, I always touch the soil to make sure that they are still moist (not wet). Ultimately, however, the amount of water is a big function of the intensity and duration of the light they are given. I believe I lost some of mine in the beginning because they were getting too much light :( All the best on your propagation!
It depends how quickly your plants develop strong roots (when you can see them coming out the bottom). I keep mine indoors over the winter until spring.
I like the video but you do need to ask Santa for a tape measure this Christmas. Every time you say 2 inches you leave about 4”, lol. Anyway, I need to rejuvenate my unhappy clematis (can’t remember the variety) so I thought I’d first check in with you to see how you do it. Thanks for the info!
Thanks! My best advice is to give them fertilizer and keep the roots moist. Also, maybe cut some stems down to let more air circulate. Just thoughts. My biggest issue with non-Jackmanii varieties has been that they die over winter. Thanks for watching and commenting. I'll go back and figure out the 2" vs. 4" issue 😉.
Hello! Thank you for all this info!. I have a question. Do you keep the new plants since September until spring inside the house? All that time covered? Or how long do you keep them inside? I am in Maryland and I do no want them to die due to snow or cold. Thanks again!!!
Yes, I do keep the cuttings indoors over the winter. I have a grow light system, so it's quite easy for me. Plus, it gives me something to do over the winter 😉. I uncover them once they become established to get air flow. If we leave for a few days (the biggest issue), I might cover them to preserve moisture.
Ohh thank you for answering so fast! :) I have q clematis that I would love to practice this with. I will wait until September as you suggested. Would you mind recommending what plant home light system you got?thank you again!
@@albaprados4023 Hi, I use a system I purchased from Gardener’s Supply (gardeners.com). They sell lots of options depending on the size you are after, and the room you have available. I have the three-tier LED light system. I talk about it a little and show it in my “Growing Torenia Seeds” video. Having a good strong grow light has made a big difference in my seed-starting and propagation results. All the best in gardening 🌸🌷🌿
Typically, I like to begin the plants once the stems start to become woody. This for us is mid summer to fall. Because of our cold climate, I over-winter the cuttings indoors.
I just found a Henryi white clematis plant in some bushes and would like to create new vines. I'm in zone 5. Can I start new plants now from this or do you need to wait till fall?
I have always waited until fall when the Jackmanii stems are a bit more "woody". I am not personally familiar with Henryi, but see that it is "type 2". The stems are probably pretty new and green. You could certainly try taking cuttings now. If they formed good roots, you could possibly plant them outside yet this fall. With the fall cuttings, I need to overwinter them indoors in Zone 4. Good luck!
Thank you, ma’am. 3 years ago I think a bird brought me a magenta clematis plant via it’s droppings because one day I spotted a glorious magenta flower and then learned that it was clematis. I love this plant, the blooms are magnificent and it’s neat the way it climbs.

Greetings to Scotland! Wow, that is so great to hear! It's so rewarding, in many ways, to propagate our own plants. Thanks for commenting!
Thanks Rosanne...great simple tip, have subscribed.
Thanks for subscribing! Glad you liked the video.
I have never cut my clematis's back. They are HUGE! And the bloom like crazy. They're done now, except for the double bloomed Clematis. It's still Flowering like crazy. I am in Western NC.
Greetings to western North Carolina! With your climate, I’m not surprised that your clematis grow huge. I think that one of the main reasons to cut clematis is to keep bloom closer to the ground, as well as keep the clematis behaved and fitting to the trellis.
We ran twine up for the top of the trellis. The blooms tend to stay near the bottom portion of the Clematis plant. I've had the biggest Clematis for about 30 years. I've had the double bloomed for about 10 years. Plenty of sunshine through the early part of the day, and shaded after. Well mulched. Love them.
It sounds absolutely beautiful!
What an excellent demo! So useful! Thank you so much! I think I will try it this fall!
You are so welcome! Have fun! 🌺
Thank you. I planted clematis for my wife and was looking to start more. Great info !
Good luck and happy gardening!
Great instructions... clear and simple. Keep us updated . I would like to see how they grow.
Thanks. So far, so good!
My purple clematis is now opening, going into July 2022. It is mixed in with a one time a year bloomer pink one. I tell my family, going to Lowe's to buy some more dead plants, plant, water and loving care they spring right back. Where you were setting looks so beautiful and peaceful :)
Thank you! I love the look of mixing climbers, and colors, up a trellis. This year I’ve tried both white Thunbergia and Cathedral Bells on the same trellis. I’m afraid the Thunbergia might bully out the Cathedral Bells, but we’ll see. Mixing colors of the same plant is more reliable.
Have a great summer!
Great informative video. The soil needle you have to make the holes is called a Dibber but you refer to it as a Dibble which made me smile here in England. Not a criticism at all just wanted to make you aware. Once again great video and we will try replanting our Clematis cuttings. Stay safe and well. 🙂
🙂 . I've never seen a dibber here in the US, but treasure it as a souvenir from my trip to England. I appreciate the correction!
Glad you enjoyed the video and all the best with your clematis cuttings!
If you’re feeling lucky just put a cutting in the ground where you want it to grow. I had one take last year, I put it next to a climbing rose 🌹 . 🤣
You must truly have green thumbs! I love the combination of roses and clematis. I might just try it this year! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Right because who wants to watch all this????
@delidivaed1 I do, it's very informative, clear, and concise, right to the point. Why comment on the video if it's not for you?
I just accidentally ripped a vine out of the ground, unprepared to propagate it so I’m gonna roll the dice and see what happens!!! lol
@@jmac7133 good luck!
That’s an intersting way. Do you have an update on the growth? Would love to see the roots or new growth!
Hi, this batch is already given away or planted in our back yard by our garden shed. I had about 8 or 9 cuttings survive. Here's a link to a video with some of the grown-up cuttings.
Jackmanii comes in at 7:03.
ruclips.net/video/fmz5OqGM0DQ/видео.html
Thank you much for your very clear explanation. I have two candidates lined up and shall definitely give it a go 😊🧑🌾
Yay! I wish you all the best! 🌹🌱🌷
Thanks for sharing this informative video! Can we propagate clematis in spring?
Good question, I’ve never tried it, because the stems of the clematis aren’t just right; I like them to be semi-green/semi woody. If you have a spring blooming variety, which tends to have woody stems, I’d give it a try. good luck! Do remember, that the success rate is about 25 to 30% for me. So plant more than you need.
I’m working with autumn clematis. I’ve tried seeds, two years that failed. I cut some from.a neighbor who was going to tear it down. First time I had a complete failure. I succeeded in planting a weed of some kind. Today I tried to more cuttings. I didn’t get any old wood. I hope it works this time. Thanks for putting up this video.
You are quite welcome. I wish you to the best on your cutting project!
im pretty new to gardening snd flowers if grown and watered quite a few things I thought were flowers that turned out to ve weeds lol. but getting better at being avle to tell which are good and not now
Thank you for your gardening knowledge. I enjoy your videos. ❤️
You are quite welcome. I love sharing our garden and garden knowledge. 🌹
I like ur garden very much 🌿as always u shared beautyful videos 🌷
Thank you.
Great video. Your garden is lovely!
Thank you very much!
Halo, I just did 2 rounds of clematis propagating in the summer. All not successful. They were all done indoor (it was too hot outdoor), similar to your method showed but with a plastic dome cover with opening. Second round I added heat pad. Both not successful.
That’s a wonderful video you showed. I am going to try using grow light.
I am so sorry to hear about your experience with Clematis. I'm sure the grow lights will help. But, be sure to give them less light if the leaves start showing brown patches. Getting the light right is important, but especially with Clematis. All the best!
Rosannes Garden Thank you for the tips!
Appreciate learning how to do that 👍🏻
Thank you.
Glad you found the video helpful!
Thank you so much for this information! Now I know I can do this! You are wonderful!❤️

I really enjoy your channel. Lots of useful information.
Thank you. I appreciate hearing that. It helps understand what people would like to see.
Thanks so much for info.I’m looking forward to giving it a try. Maybe I will have better luck
I wish you all the best with your Clemstis!
So nice to find you! Another RoseAnn who is a gardener. I garden 1/2 yr in zone 4 and 1/2 yr in zone 9B.
Hello RoseAnn! It sounds like you are a snowbird. How fun to garden in two such different zones. Other than Calla Lilies, I know very little of tropicals. Enjoy!
Thank you 🙏 ! I am very glad I found this video.
Glad it was helpful!
Awesome video. Wow, that's along time to root, but they're expensive plants to buy. Thanks!!
Thank you! They do take a while to root, but as you say, it's worth it.
Great information, I’m gonna try with some azaleas also. I love your garden also, especially the stone turtle 🐢.😍
I love trying new things too. Good luck! The stone turtle is a cutie. ☺️
Thank-you very much! I had no idea, just put 3 in this year
Glad I could help! 🌺
Hi it was exciting to see something I have never seen before since I m new to gardening. Does this process work with all flower plants ?
Glad I could introduce you to something new in gardening! Flowering perennials differ with respect to the best way to propagate them. The easiest way to propagate many perennials for the residential gardener is to divide plants. Clematis is difficult to divide, being that it is a vine. Therefore, taking cuttings is a good option. That said, nurseries often take cuttings to propagate plants.
Never thought of taking cuttings from my clematis. I'll have to try this. I don't have a grow light. Looks like I need to invest on one later this year. Thanks for the video. :)
Grow lights are great garden tools. You might start using it for other things too...like growing herbs in the winter. Good luck!
@@RosannesGarden thanks for those tips. :)
Never knew I could clone my clematis. Great demo...thx for sharing.
Glad to help! 🌿
Love this video! I assume once they are well rooted after 10-12 weeks you just continue to winter them over under the grow lights until safe to plant in spring? Thanks!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the video! Yes, you are correct. I over winter them under lights until the following spring. It's not ideal, but workable.
This is very clear and helpful. Thank you. I had to pull out an entire clematis that was overtaking a rose of Sharon. I couldn't get the entire length of the roots, but a good deal of the root clump is still together. Could I cut off the top of the plant and regrow it in potting soil? Thanks again
Hi Laura. I'm glad you found the video helpful! If I were you, I would most certainly try to replant your clematis. They are pretty tough and it probably will do just fine. As you say, cut off the top of the plant so the roots don't try to support all the green. Potting soil should also help. Good luck! 🌿
What a lovely lady. Loved your easy to follow tutorial, thank you so much. I've just planted Nelly Moser, Warsawski Nike and Hagley Hybrid and would love to take cutting when the time comes. I'm in Ireland and wondered if taking cuttings is done at the same time of year as the USA, can you advise please. Again, thank you so much ☘☘
Greetings to Ireland! I'm so pleased you found the video helpful. I would say that you could take cuttings as soon as some of the stems begin to harden and get somewhat "woody". I have found they have the greatest likelihood of success. So, not being that familiar with your growing season, I would imagine you could do that in the July/August timeframe. My Jackmanii are almost at that point now. Your selection of Clematis sound lovely! 🌺🌿🌺
@@RosannesGarden That sounds like great advice, I will try in August. Many thanks again for your tutorial and reply ☘☘
I never knew you could do this! I’m just wondering how long it takes for the plants to be big and strong enough to plant in the actual garden? I see that you’re doing this in September? When would they go into the ground? Thank you for the video. 😊
Hi! I over-winter them indoors and plant in the spring. I feature one of my root cuttings in the following video
ruclips.net/video/Mb2FQaQ1iLk/видео.html
This clematis in the video took about two years to grow to five feet tall. I used two plants for the trellis in the video. Hope that helps. Good luck!
😄 I may use a kabob stick BUT I am sooo excited to try this! When will it be safe to plant outside & make it through a winter?
Great. I'm glad you're going to try it! Chopsticks work too. 😉. But I love my garden toys.
Hello, So what do you do next? How long till you can plant them? Left that real
important step out!!!
Yes, I have the same question.
Hi, I leave them under a grow light until I see roots coming out of the bottom or they start pushing out new leaves. In our climate, there is not enough time for them to root before winter sets in. In other climates (see other comments), they can be left outdoors. Regardless, they need attention and TLC.

Thank you! How was your success rate on this tray? Are they in the ground and thriving now? Did you keep these inside under grow lights like this all winter and then plant them in the ground the following spring? I'm wondering if I could put some in the ground now?? I have a good sized deep purple clematis that I'd love to spread around the yard. I LOVE THEM!!!!
Greetings fellow clematis lover! It’s been a few years now, and I believe I had about 10 healthy plants come from that tray. I planted three of them to make a nice large clematis cluster in the garden. It is featured in my vines and climber video. I think it’s #1. After I took the cuttings, which I did at the end of summer, I put them under grow lights for winter. It might seem like a lot of work, but I love some gardening to do during the winter months and enjoy nurturing the little guys. It is a wonderful way to clone a really good plant. I wish you all the best! You could certainly try cuttings now and planting them - that’s a fun thing about gardening - trying new things and seeing if they work. 🌿🌞🌹
Her pronunciation of roots had me in fits.... rhutz as opposed to ruuutez in the UK . I never knew about the growing lights.... thanks.
;-)
It’s different all over the US, even within a single city there can be many accents and mispronunciations.
Two “o”s = oooh/ō, the long “o” sound. Roots, roof, boots, etc., but we hear a lot of “rutz”, “ruff”, “butz”, though somehow people seem to manage the word “boots” better than the roots and roof.
Creek is another ear-scraper. Two “e”s = the long vowel sound, but a lot of people in small towns say “crick”.
Small-town folks (or uneducated city folks) leave the “t”s out of nearly everything as well... kitten, curtain, winter, and mountain all become ki’-enn, or ki’-unn;
cur’-unn: win’-er; and mou’-unn or moww’-unn (rhymes with the word “wow”).
And yes, they will look at you as though YOU are the one mispronouncing the words, if you include the vowels and consonants, and pronounce them all correctly. Or they conclude that you are “uppity”.
They just about fall off their chair if they hear the letter “T” enunciated. You just might be able to put them into a state of shock if you said “kittens with mittens in the mountains in the wintertime”...
Miss Kim I’m sure, and I have yet to discover.... charming as it was surprising.
Jessica John, Yes, and despite all the variations, we can all still understand each other pretty well.
From across the pond wven with their Cockney, Geordie, etc. accents, to the US with their endless regional accents and Brooklyn, Jersey, Creole, and all of them in between, it all just helps us better understand foreign speakers for whom English is a 2nd, 10th, or 20th language.
I like all the variations, and when Americans get a bit too snobby about a foreign accent or a little broken English, I simply ask them how well they speak their chosen second or third language,; or, as they’re rudely pretending not to understand a foreign visitor who is speaking perfectly easy-to-understand English, I ask them how well they spoke Russian when they went to Moscow, or French when they went to Paris last year.
Shuts them right up. We all know the singular answer to all those questions. :)
Jessica John i see pronunciation of different word like an accent. Like Roof and Ruff (for the top of a house). It’s how a person says it identifies where they are from.
When do you plant them in the garden? As soon as they have roots or in the spring?
I nurture them until the spring, when I can plant them safely outdoors. I enjoy taking care of the plants over the winter. It's rewarding.
Good job, I love your video.Thanks.
Thank you too!
Great video! Thanks! And by the way, I love your hair :)
Oh thank you! 🌺 ☺️🌿
This is definitely good to know. I have a Lady Kyoko in bloom right now and she is beautiful! Thank you for all your information. I will have to give it a go here in Texas.
Wonderful! All the best with the Lady!
What kind of vine is that on the other side of your door over the hydrangea? Thanks for sharing the tip to plant the something at the base to shade the roots. I would have never thought of that!
Hi, the vine is a cypress vine. It's really quite lovely. Here's a link to a little blog I did on it.
rosannesgarden.com/?s=cypress+vine
Glad you liked the tip!
You could even put some stones or rocks down
I had 2 clematis and lost both of them I think to rabbits, but my mom has some and I think I will see if we can try this out. They are a beautiful vine.
I'm so sorry to hear about your clematis! But, trying cuttings from your mom's clematis sounds like a great plan. All the best!

Hi, Beautiful garden.
Couldn't you put them on a sunny porch?
Thanks! I imagine a sunny porch could work, as long as it wasn't too drafty. I've never tried it, because I haven't a sunny porch, but I do have grow lights. Give it a try!
Hi. Great video. I live in SE Minnesota so have similar weather as you obviously. Maybe I missed it, but when do you plant your new plants? Do you keep them inside over winter or plant them in late fall? Thanks a lot.
Hi Minnesota neighbor! I overwinter the cuttings indoors under grow lights over the winter. It gives me something to nurture before I get going with seedlings. If they were ready (roots visible on the bottom of the pot), I'd rather plant them outdoors though.
No problem getting them to root, form good root systems, but how the hell to get them over the Winter without them "damping off"? Do hundreds of cuttings on misting bed, but Clematis are a horror at the post rooting phase. Pot them on and keep them moist but definitely not wet, but they mostly end up dead by Springtime.
You sound very experienced. My issues have been more with the rooting. Perhaps it has to do with the stems used for cutting? I use stems on the woodier side - slower to root, but tougher when they do. Just a thought. Or, could it be that Jackmanii is stronger?
Thanks for the comment.
@@RosannesGarden Rosanne, thanks. Will come back here if I can find out more. Very frustrating.
Great video! I just purchased some clematis and I’m new to propagation!
Glad to hear it. Good luck!
I just found your video and plan to try this with my Huldine clematis in the fall (zone 5b) - like you I enjoy gardening under my lights in the winter as well. What rooting powder do you recommend?
Hi, I'm so pleased that you are trying this with your Huldine. They are so gorgeous! As to your question, I just use a general blend that I bought at my local nursery. I don't think they had choices. I've had it for years.
Good luck with your Huldine!
Wonderful video! I learned much.
Glad to hear it!
Excellent video. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Hi, great video! I am from Villa la Angostura, Argentina...and I have a clematis that I would like to propagate...at what time have you made the cuttings, in the spring? and another query has tried to propagate clematis from air layering? Greetings from Argentina!
Greetings to Argentina! I propagate mine in the late summer when the vines are becoming woody. I'm not sure how cold it gets in your winter, but here, I overwinter the cuttings indoors under a grow light. In a more moderate climate, you could try keeping them or moving them outdoors. I know nothing about air layering...but now I'm curious 😉
Great tutorial ... thanks for sharing.
You’re welcome 😊
Very inspirational; thank you!
Thank you! Glad you found the video helpful🌿
I want to do this with my Veveyen Pernell but it flowers twice a year, now and in September. She's a multi-frilled beauty now and a lovely shade of lilac,in September she is a single flowering about 6" wide. Any ideas?
Hmm. I'd try it in the fall after she flowers, assuming you can over-winter her for the cold season. My best results are for cuttings that are almost woody, which happens later in the season. Not sure where you live or your climate, but you could also try a few cuttings (not to disturb the Spring flowers) now and see what happens. Sorry, I don't have experience with this variety, but I did look it up (Vyvyen Pernell) and it looks lovely. Good luck!
Can i do this in the spring before blooming and just set them outside to get the light and skip the grow light???
I haven't tried it, but it would be worth a try. It depends on your climate. The stems need to be not too green or too woody, which for me is best harvested in mid-late summer. If our summer were longer, I don't think I'd need the grow light.
@@RosannesGarden OK would you put them outside in the sun or no direct sun and plastic lid or no lid?? Also i have containers that the plastic lids have a dial on top so you can open the holes on top of the lid for circulation or leave them closed, would you do open or closed?
Thank you. I have a friend with a flourishing plant. Should I wait until September to take cuttings? I am in Arkansas.
Once the new stems start getting a little tougher/woodier, the cuttings should work well. Being that you are further ahead in your growing season, I imagine you could start in July, maybe even now. Remember to take more cuttings than you want in the end, as some won't take. Good luck!
Hi ~~ 🤍💜💙
~~ you said that jackmaii is type 3 clematis ;; ~ & that new shoots will grow on woody stems;; so last year’s stalks,, is this right ?
Yes, my Jackmanii develops shoots from old wood. In the fall, I cut down some stems to 5 feet, some stems to 4 feet, and some stems to 3 feet. In the spring this allows for staggered growth as new shoots grow from the old woody stems.
Interesting channel 👍
Thanks for the visit! Glad you are enjoying it!
This was very informative and I'd like to try it. If you start the cuttings in the fall, what do you do with them after they root? Can you plant them outdoors before winter ? I live in Quebec where winters are harsh.
Great. I wish you all the best on it . I keep the cuttings under grow lights all winter and plant them in early spring. It is work, and a little nerve-wracking going on winter vacations, but well worth it.
Rosanne is the expert But ! here in England I bought a heated propagator $16 US and I can leave my plants , (I go to Morocco, like you go to Florida)! all winter. The humidity stays inside and by Spring they have rooted and starting to grow !
I like clematis flower.. you have an amazing garden. Its awesome.
Thank you! Clematis are beautiful.
My starts have new leaves coming on after about a month and a half, does this mean they have roots now and its OK to transplant them in my yard now or should I wait awhile longer?
Personally, I would wait longer. The more you can nurture them in a protected environment and get the roots, stronger, the better.
@@RosannesGarden OK should I still leave the clear lid on too or take it off since they have new leaves sprouting
Excellent tutorial thanks.
Thank you! I’m glad you found it helpful.
Love your channel I can watch and listen easily to you Rosanne thank you for your knowledge sharing From Karen in Oz 🇦🇺🐨🦘
Greetings to Australia! Thank you Karen! I'm glad you are enjoying my channel. Thank you for watching and commenting!
I’m wondering…after they root? Do you plant them outside? Or keep them indoor through the winter?
I live in MN zone 4 also and garden much like you. Taking many cuttings, and saving seeds. But I have never tried clematis cuttings. Thank you for sharing your good advise 😉
Hi neighbor! I do keep them indoors all winter long. I have grow lights and actually enjoy the winter "hobby" of nurturing for them. Glad you found the video helpful! 🌺
Do you lose the plant , that is why you have to make new cuttings ? My clematis stays in the ground and survived in Calif .
Greetings to California! Regarding your question, the answer is "no", the original plant is a thriving perennial. I took cuttings to propagate new plants to have elsewhere in the garden. My Jackmanii stock is so strong and good that I wanted to "clone" the plant for other areas in our garden.
Bonjour et merci pour vos conseils ! AA 🍃
I am so pleased you are enjoying my channel! Thanks for watching and commenting. 🌺🌿😊
I’m not surprised at your success rate ! What is the brand of your shears? Just what I’m looking for.
Thanks! Those little snips are great. I love them. I believe they were originally sold as rose snips. I bought them from Smith and Hawkin. Good luck on your hunt.
Do you cover the tray with plastic sheet or with a lid? And how often you have to water them ? Thank you
The very last scene of the video has a picture of the plastic lid that I used with them. It is quite high (10 inches or so). I mist the leaves daily, or every other day for many weeks. This means that I water the plants very little for the first few weeks. But, whenever I mist them, I always touch the soil to make sure that they are still moist (not wet). Ultimately, however, the amount of water is a big function of the intensity and duration of the light they are given. I believe I lost some of mine in the beginning because they were getting too much light :(
All the best on your propagation!
How long should the trimmings be kept in pots before transferring them into the ground?
It depends how quickly your plants develop strong roots (when you can see them coming out the bottom). I keep mine indoors over the winter until spring.
@@RosannesGarden awesome thanks! Also should the trimmings be covered with clear plastic while inside?
I like the video but you do need to ask Santa for a tape measure this Christmas. Every time you say 2 inches you leave about 4”, lol. Anyway, I need to rejuvenate my unhappy clematis (can’t remember the variety) so I thought I’d first check in with you to see how you do it. Thanks for the info!
Thanks! My best advice is to give them fertilizer and keep the roots moist. Also, maybe cut some stems down to let more air circulate. Just thoughts. My biggest issue with non-Jackmanii varieties has been that they die over winter. Thanks for watching and commenting. I'll go back and figure out the 2" vs. 4" issue 😉.
What was your success rate? I love clematis. I wish I could do a garden tour of your yard. Too bad I'm in CA.
We ended up with nine good plants. Overall, I was pleased. Gardening in California seems wonderful. All the best.
Hello! Thank you for all this info!. I have a question. Do you keep the new plants since September until spring inside the house? All that time covered? Or how long do you keep them inside? I am in Maryland and I do no want them to die due to snow or cold. Thanks again!!!
Yes, I do keep the cuttings indoors over the winter. I have a grow light system, so it's quite easy for me. Plus, it gives me something to do over the winter 😉. I uncover them once they become established to get air flow. If we leave for a few days (the biggest issue), I might cover them to preserve moisture.
Ohh thank you for answering so fast! :) I have q clematis that I would love to practice this with. I will wait until September as you suggested. Would you mind recommending what plant home light system you got?thank you again!
@@albaprados4023 Hi, I use a system I purchased from Gardener’s Supply (gardeners.com). They sell lots of options depending on the size you are after, and the room you have available. I have the three-tier LED light system. I talk about it a little and show it in my “Growing Torenia Seeds” video. Having a good strong grow light has made a big difference in my seed-starting and propagation results. All the best in gardening 🌸🌷🌿
What time of year can I plant these clippings? My large plant just bloomed
Typically, I like to begin the plants once the stems start to become woody. This for us is mid summer to fall. Because of our cold climate, I over-winter the cuttings indoors.
So how many did you get out of those that grow roots ?
In the end, I had eight or nine successes.
thankyou very much
You are most welcome
I just found a Henryi white clematis plant in some bushes and would like to create new vines. I'm in zone 5. Can I start new plants now from this or do you need to wait till fall?
I have always waited until fall when the Jackmanii stems are a bit more "woody". I am not personally familiar with Henryi, but see that it is "type 2". The stems are probably pretty new and green. You could certainly try taking cuttings now. If they formed good roots, you could possibly plant them outside yet this fall. With the fall cuttings, I need to overwinter them indoors in Zone 4.
Good luck!
Mine is growing out from under my porch stairs. It seems to like it there.
Sounds cute. Very cottage like. 😊
@@RosannesGarden we just found another one under the other side of the steps. It's burgundy colored
Can I do the cuttings before September ? I live in Southern Ontario ? Ty .
Absolutely! As long as the stems aren't tender and green. They should be somewhat hardened, or they risk rotting off at the ground. Good luck!
Can you do it in a glass of water first for rooting?
I honestly do not know. I've been meaning to try it.
How can you tell the top from bottom of clematis cuttings? I had to trim mine and I don’t know which end is top and which one is bottom! Haha
Great question, but I really couldn't say. If I don't pay close attention, I get confused too. I just keep very good track of the stem.
