    Try using curly willow water in your propagation. It’s magical. Put a willow branch in your propagation bucket, instead of root hormone.

    Luv your accent brother, great idea with the perlite, i use vermiculite the same way but keeps it more moist for when i forget. i also put in a clear plastic box and the humidity really helps them out, i get higher success rates with the cuttings. i put about ten in a box and get almost all of them to root.

      cool, the hurricane knocked my 2 over so i got lots of cuttings , i replanted them and they're starting to come back. they are alot tougher than i had given them credit for

    Very helpful video. How long did you leave them in the perlite before planting in soil? I live in Central California away from the coast so our temps match yours but it’s not humid here. I’m about to try this!

      Usually about 2 to 3 weeks to get some good roots going

    Thank you s much for sharing this .. I keep seeing them in flower (different colours) when I walk around the neighbourhood and wondered what they were, then google search brought me here .. I'm going to ask if I can take some cuttings and give this a go!

    can you use potting mix to propagate them? I have never used these fine grained rocks before

    • @GardenDownSouth
      @GardenDownSouth  7 месяцев назад

      Depends on your potting soul, make sure its not packed tight, putting soil tends to get dense when you water it

    Hi, what time of year can you do a cutting !!! . I have a beautiful plant on my balcony. It only gets afternoon Sun and it seems to be doing well . I love this plant blooms all year long !.

    • @GardenDownSouth
      @GardenDownSouth  2 года назад

      I'd say anytime you have active new growth, like between june and September would probably be best. It's still very warm here in October so I may be tempted to test how late I can do it here (AL 8b)

    hi , I live in England the weather some time down to -1 or -3 degrees , is this plant will be okay with that ?
    if the tree getting too tall can we cutting down at mother trunk ?
    waiting to hear from you and thank you very much for your help

      @thelifeofhorroryt4940 3 года назад +2

      As far as i know this tree does not like that low of a temperature so its best to bring inside for the winter and bring it out in the late sping and fall. But i could be wrong

    Is abutilon perennial?

    • @GardenDownSouth
      @GardenDownSouth  3 месяца назад

      it is here in zone 9, we used to be 8, so I doubt any lower than 8

    Is it necessary to leave leaves in cuttings?

    • @GardenDownSouth
      @GardenDownSouth  8 месяцев назад

      You can definitely minimize the number of leaves but i believe it is better to leave a couple for photosynthesis to take place to create energy for root formation quicker. I know when rooting woody Cuttings there are no leaves and it uses stored up energy so i guess either way would work

    What brand of perlite are you using? I stopped using perlite from miracle grow because it has peat moss mixed in it. Im trying to find pure perlite. Thanks for doing this video.

    • @GardenDownSouth
      @GardenDownSouth  3 года назад +1

      Thanks so much for checking out the video! The brand of perlite I have is Vigoro. It's at local Home Depot here in lower Alabama.

    I am in zone 8a-8b my abutilon is very tall with leaves only at the top. Can I trim it back to get knew growth at the bottom. I keep it indoors during cold weather.

    • @GardenDownSouth
      @GardenDownSouth  4 года назад

      definitely, we recently had a terrible hurricane [Sally] I had to cut mine back alot and it has really come back very full and nice in the last few weeks, but now caterpillars attacking all the new tender growth

    Bro what about the airleyering grafting method
    Is it possible on these plants?

    • @GardenDownSouth
      @GardenDownSouth  3 года назад

      I've never tried that method, but being woody,i think it would totally work

    • @umapaul7042
      @umapaul7042 3 года назад

      Why I asked is I did airleyering grafting on most of my hibis plants
      80% succeeded but this veriety looks different and very exotic in our place Any way I try this too. Thank u sir for ur quick response

    • @GardenDownSouth
      @GardenDownSouth  3 года назад

      @@umapaul7042 just a note, these do fine on full sun on a southern wall in south Alabama, so they're pretty tough. i also have several in partial shade. they bloom mostly in Fall
