Nice video. I'm planning to plant leyland cypress cuttings and I came across your video. Thanks for the info. It's winter time here in Washington, DC. I'll start planting and put it in our sun room for now. Regards to your Filipina wife. I'm also a Pinay. God bless..
I found the plastic bag greenhouse approach several years back, it works fantastic! Thanks for sharing that out there, your videos are great "Thank you!"
Thuja Green Giant Arborvitae is replacing Leyland Cypress as the go to large screen privacy hedge. I produce both in my nursery and anyone who knows about both will get the Thujas. I agree with using the Rooting Hormone not so much for the hormone but for the Fungicide that comes with it. The old-timers I talked to just stuck their cuttings into the mud on the banks of a creek Between July and Sept then harvested them between Thanksgiving and Christmas.
@@crawwwfishh3284 Not saying it won't work because I never tried it but Leyland Cyprus may not root easily in spring. This is what I have been told by the guy who showed me how and when to do it. I can only speak accurately one what I did and that was to take cuttings between July 15th and Sept 15th and prep them. Put them in sand (vermiculite works better I am told) until Thanksgiving. Try it in spring and share the results, for all I know that is even better but it goes against everything I heard. What I hear and truth are not always the same thing. Also for all I know your climate is different and spring cuttings work out perfect where you live.
The problem with Leland cypress is that they easily catch diseases while the thujas are hardier. But if you can keep the cypress free of disease they certainly are great
Great Video! Both you and the wife did a premo job. One of the things that I hate is when the person is giving instructions and the person with the camera cuts off what they are doing. Your wife followed your actions great. I also appreciate the fact that you do not waste our time with doing the same thing 10 X and accepting the fact that we are not idiots once or twice works for me. Keep up the good work to both of you. Sometimes the photographer is taken for granted or if a person is doing the video by themselves it is really bad.
Wow, Elizabeth. Thank you for the wonderful feedback. We try our best. It's nice to know that our efforts are appreciated. You've just motivated us to keep it up.
Thank you! We have one of these trees in our backyard, and really like it. The property behind us will be developed into townhouses next year, so 2 more of these will make a good visual barrier. We used an app to identify the tree as a Leyland. Then we watched your very helpful video on how to propagate them. My husband is right away gathering things to try this immediately. You are a wonderful teacher. We live in NW Washington state.
That's great Rachel. I'm glad I could help. Remember, trees are like real estate. Don't wait to plant them or propagate them. Plant or propagate them and then wait. Good luck!
back in the summer I started some Lemon Trees from seed, where I live Lemon Trees won't survive the winter freeze and I don't have a good spot for sunlight due to the window layout, so I went out and bought a grow tent (on Amazon, 2' deep, 4' wide and like 5' tall) and a cheap $20 2 ft. LED Grow Light from Lowes, then i got 3 3-tier metal racks where it's like 10-12" between tiers and they perfectly filled the tent, this gave me 3 levels tall of pots, I moved my Lemon Trees, my rooted cuttings from my Crape Myrtle and now i'm expanding, I took some cuttings from my Peach Tree a few weeks ago and 6 of the 8 cuttings are pushing out leaves and one has a bud getting ready to flower, I just did 8 more cuttings from the peach tree last night, my next goal is to propagate some of my leyland cypress so I can build a good natural privacy/sound wall from the 2 lane highway right next to my house, I use a similar method on the trapping the moisture, but what I do is instead of half a milk jug I cut the tops off of Hi-C Gallon jugs, drill a few holes in the bottom for drainage and then I set the top back on after inserting the cuttings.
I brought 25 2 3/4 inches liners in 2016 on eBay only one left is now 6 feet tall definitely going to try your way to multiply them Thanks for the advice
You got it right, it's July here in Australia, mid winter & I've got cabin fever waiting for the spring. Going to start some cuttings now. Many thanks. .
Thankyou for the information, I need to make many new hedges so this is invaluable. I have also subscribed as I see you cover the paranormal also 🙌🥳👏 win win
Great info, I've been trying to grow from Leyland cuttings the last few years without success after a large section of my hedge died, did everything but the greenhouse effect... Thank You!!!
I’m from a horticultural family and really appreciate the important details you share. Do you know how to grow potatoes? I have a passion for starting gardens to share food with people for our future (which is very uncertain). If you would do any detailed videos about growing potatoes I would appreciate. You have a clear succinct style; no nonsense and lots of information.
Wow! This was such a comprehensive video. I won’t be propagating cypress trees, but I watched your video, nonetheless, for tips about tree propagation. Thanks for putting the effort into teaching us. You now have a new subscriber. =)
Greetings from So. California... this is such an awesome tip. Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge. Amazing tip😃... Wishing you and your wife to have a successful life & more subscribers to your Chanel.
Wow thanks for the tip,, I am trying to propagate all kind of Cypress plants cause I can’t spend much money on plants my wife will kill me lol,,, but I’m into gardening now since the pandemic starts,, and I have home work,, and my backyard is really empty and boring,, and when I was young in the Philippines we planted everything,,, but here in New York where plants are limited to grow I picked only evergreen plants to design my yard ,, and oh men it’s expensive.. so I went free learning TH-cam,, and I found so many videos about propagation and I picked your video,,, and I subscribe!!! Now I will have more than I need to grow evergreen,, and I am starting to learn bonsai and topiary,,, thank you
Fantastic video, very informative and interesting, I recently got into gardening and have always been interested in the idea of cloning plants/trees/hedges, so will definitely be using this info to put a few more Cypress around my garden, maybe even propagate a bonsai too!
Thank you!!!!! we have a few of these that we bought off of ebay, and they are taking off, and wanted to learn how to propagate them, very helpful video.
Hi, I bought a 10' x 32' greenhouse for my Christmas tree farm so I can start growing my own Murray and Leyland cypress trees from cuttings. I live in South Carolina. Having a greenhouse, do you still recommend wrapping the trees in the bags and how warm do you think I need to keep the greenhouse? Thank you for your awesome video and any other information you can provide.
Great video!! I have about 12 Leland cypress trees in my yard that I use as a screen for my pool area. After watching your video and seeing how easy it is to propagate, I'm going to get some cuttings for another section of my yard. Two quick questions,..do I need to add any fertilizer before planting the cuttings and what kind of sand can I use to attain a 50% mixture? Thanks for any help you can offer
You're welcome! Thank you for taking the time to watch my videos. And commenting lets me know you watched and that our time and effort was worth it. I appreciate YOU!
great video, and you can use the same process for almost any plant, ive done this before with trees and shrubs. i was wondering if youve made any bonsia trees using the cuttings from cypress? looks like they would make awesome bonsia trees
You are very welcome, Kelly! Good luck, and thanks for taking the time to watch our video! If you haven't please subscribe to our channel and let your friends know about us. Hope you make it through the rest of the winter. Don't worry. Spring will get here before we know it.
Thank you for the info! I just purchased 3 that are probably 2 ft. ones from Lowe's! I didn't realize they're too big for our yard! I think I'll do this to all of them and grow them in my side yard! Thanks again and I'm glad I found your channel! 🌲🌲
Hi very nice informative video. I have a question maybe you could ans. I have 12 or so leylands in my backyard. they are getting tall, but after a heavy wet snow, the tops were bend from the weight. some of them are still bent at the top and Im wondering if they will straighten out on their own as they grow taller? if not, should I do something to straighten them? thanks.
should we poke any holes in the plastic bags? im worried about them getting enough air. also will this process work for any coniferous evergreen tree? or just leyland cypress?
I will try doing this method and wish me luck hope it works, i wanna grow cuttings from my cypress tree since i only have one in my front yard, btw im from the Philippines
Hey I bought my baby Leland cypress that were about 18-24” tall for $8 here in Arizona two weeks ago. I saw another TH-cam video that said that are prone to spider mites, some type of rot and about 4 other problems. What is your experience and where do you live? I live in zone 8B aw Arizona high desert 4800 feet elevation.
We're at about 2k feet in zone 7 (central Virginia). That's a great buy you got on those trees, and unfortunately, you are correct with the problems that leyland cypress have. It's weird. We lost one this past year to the disease that turns them solid brown, but all the others in line with it were unaffected. We'll replace the one we lost with a new one of similar height and hope for the best. Thanks for the comment and questions.
Hey, I've palaced them in front of the windows, and some of them are turning brown, is it maybe too much sun for them? Are they supposed to go brown, or foes it mean that those which are brown will not grow roots?
Hello,thank you for posting this "Homsteading". I have a question. I have not finished watching your video yet, i am only on second minute. My question is: we live in England in Saddleworth,greater Manchester. Now, we built a tree wall from the same trees you are having on your video. They have been the same size or slightly bigger when we bought them around 20years ago, slightly more . We got more than 50 of those trees and now they are high around 7 meters and more so they created nice tree wall of lenght around 50meters. Now i would like to do the same at the bottom of the drive which could make nice tree wall but i do not want to start clonning then from such a small piece and wait at least 5 years to get them into some reasonable size. Could i cut some thick branches from our 20year old trees that are already at least 3 feet long? Lets say if i cut a branch, that is already an inch thick or more,will they get roots or do they have to be such a young tiny thin pieces? If i could cut branch that is already as long as your two trees on the video, i could cut off easily 50 pieces of our old trees so if you say they can grow 3-4feet per year, in two years time we could have nice tree wall of the size of an average adult men. Also, it is sexond of april bow, does that matter? Does it have to be some particular season for branches to grow roots? Also, the trees that have been planted more than 20years ago, some of them are nice close to each other so they created sort of a thick wall, but on some places for example closer to the main road where developement of two new houses has been going on since last year, i can see gaps between the trees so the privacy is not as good as it was bedore. Could i fit the yong cuts (if they get roots) in between those old trees? Wont they push each other away? The old ones are gapped around some of them just two feet from each other and some are as twise as much so i can see those gaps. There must be mature roots from old trees so weather is any good to try to fit this young cuts in between. Thank you.
I have a cypress number 14 trees purchased from a nursery a year and a half ago and lengths ranging from one to one and a half meters and planted in the ground At that time the growth was fast upward while the trunks on the stem were slow Its height is now about 4. Meters to 3 meters But the problem we are facing now is the appearance of yellowing in the trunks on the leg with the appearance of spray on it from the bottom of the tree to the middle of the leg, while from the middle of the leg to the top is still green. The tree also began to bend towards the ground Knowing that I have used insecticides and fungi to combat this disease, but it is useless I hope you answer before yellowing reaches the top of the tree and die ⚘⚘
Roughly how long does it take to root and if it doesn't after amount of time, can you pull it out of the soil, wound it again, and go for it again or is that particular one just no good? Thanks!
Nice one. Why do you need to cover it and keep it in such a humid environment? Is it the type of plant that requires this humidity or is it all seedlings or cuttings that require it?
To our understanding, this helps with the rooting process by minimizing it's bio-dome. It's like a miniature little greenhouse/controlled system. Thanks for watching the video and commenting!
Good afternoon Homstead, not sure what time is at the place you live in, but if it is not 4am, i just sent a post with question to you, right now it is at the top as the newest one,so if you could reply today, i would start right now cutting those branches:) thanks
WOW! 50+ dollars for a 4feet tree! I live in Spain and everyone complains about the price of them being expensive in the garden centres. How much do we pay? well converting euro to dollars it would be about $4.50 for a 4 foot tree! I won'tbe complaining anymore. You can buy a 10foot tree for around $10.
I think I missed something. At one point you said they can grow 5 to 6 feet per year but then you said the ones you are displaying are 3 years old and they are only about 3 or 4 feet tall. Not sure I understand
You have maintained the first job in the bible is agriculture. God bless you brother.

Thanks for the detailed video. Is it possible to take the tops of the trees off taller ones (12ft) like 3 feet and replant them?
Interesting idea
I hope so …I’m giving it a try!
Thanks wonderful explanation

Hello and kamusta to you and your wife from the Philippines
Thank you. I will need a hundred or more, and prices are ridiculous right now, even for small ones.
My wife of 40 years is Filipina also. 💘
Right on
thanks for your information. Can you write which root developer you used? Is that ok to use IBA-k acides?
when should you plant them outside? In the ground or in pots?
Hi sir thanks for the tips.. Watching from the Philippines!
Thank you for your information!! Can you use potting soil? And how often do you water them?
Thank you very good i will try.
i got a foot tall lemon cypress and euro cypress for 25 cents each at smart and final extra!! i got 20 and am thinking of going back for more haha
Awesome video ! Ty for the easy instructions, I can’t wait to get started.

Hello it’s mid April in northern Virginia. Any suggestions?😊
Hi very nice informative video. I have a question maybe you could ans. I have 12 or so leylands in my backyard. they are getting tall, but after a heavy wet snow, the tops were bend from the weight. some of them are still bent at the top and Im wondering if they will straighten out on their own as they grow taller? if not, should I do something to straighten them? thanks.
Hello! to your Filipina wife 🤗
should we poke any holes in the plastic bags? im worried about them getting enough air. also will this process work for any coniferous evergreen tree? or just leyland cypress?
I was just saying, you look very familiar, shipmate.(?) Retired in PI and in farming. Thanks for the video and great info.
Pretty cool, we have 35 tree growing, would. Be nice to have more.
I will try doing this method and wish me luck hope it works, i wanna grow cuttings from my cypress tree since i only have one in my front yard, btw im from the Philippines
whens the best time to make the cuttings? Are their specific branches you want to choose from like new or older branches?
Thanks for the tips...
Great video. Can I start this process in June, in KY? Lots of humidity and hot days- 80° plus temp. Would love to begin now. Thx
Does it work with larger branches?
Hey I bought my baby Leland cypress that were about 18-24” tall for $8 here in Arizona two weeks ago. I saw another TH-cam video that said that are prone to spider mites, some type of rot and about 4 other problems. What is your experience and where do you live?

Fish poop is a great fertilizer, so using pond water is the best!
I just got one bc I've seen them all over my area looking healthy....can I root anchorit?
great video! thanks! subscribed.
I'm so sorry for asking the stupid question but how do you know if it's hardwood growth is that what's brown and looks like bark?? 😭
Thank you for that info.
Can i do eastern red cedars the same way?
Hello, thanks for the detailed information. Can we make a big cut, let's say one meter long from a big and healthy leylandii tree. Will it grow roots?
Can you do other tree cuttings like this or just the cypress cuttings?
how often do you water them?
Could I top my Leylands and use those? The deer did a number on a bunch of mine
✌😁👍Thank You for sharing.
Cinnamon is also an effective "rooting hormone"
Great tip
Do you wet it and wipe it onto the cutting?
Day #2 after planting the cuttings, they have turned from green to 50% brown is this normal?

Lukas I would love to know what you did and the outcome, after all this time
Hey I live in Florida is this good area to grow this cypress
I have a cypress number 14 trees purchased from a nursery a year and a half ago and lengths ranging from one to one and a half meters and planted in the ground
At that time the growth was fast upward while the trunks on the stem were slow
Its height is now about 4. Meters to 3 meters
But the problem we are facing now is the appearance of yellowing in the trunks on the leg with the appearance of spray on it from the bottom of the tree to the middle of the leg, while from the middle of the leg to the top is still green.
The tree also began to bend towards the ground
Knowing that I have used insecticides and fungi to combat this disease, but it is useless
I hope you answer before yellowing reaches the top of the tree and die
⚘⚘
I had something drill holes in the limbs of mine. Killed two and left three.
Do I need bottom haet for my cypress tree cutting
i have a leyland cypress tree that is over 10 years old but not older than 15 years old. will the cuttings from my tree be able to propagate?
Yes
Hi watching here from the Philippines. I hope I can grow cypress tree using that method. Wish me luck.
Well done think for information
Thank you for watching.
Can I root a 5 or 6 foot cutting of leylandii? if I just put it in the ground? Thanks
That would be too much foliage to support with no root system. That's the reason why they keep them small.
@@jessemclaughlin9680 thank you for sharing this important information its very helpful and makes good common sense
8 feet apart and away from any privacy fence is the proper planting space
FYI
Roughly how long does it take to root and if it doesn't after amount of time, can you pull it out of the soil, wound it again, and go for it again or is that particular one just no good? Thanks!
thank you - awesome video - much appreciated :)
Awesome info! Thank you much:)
Brilliant thanks!
Put the cuttings in aloe vera
Nice one. Why do you need to cover it and keep it in such a humid environment? Is it the type of plant that requires this humidity or is it all seedlings or cuttings that require it?
To our understanding, this helps with the rooting process by minimizing it's bio-dome. It's like a miniature little greenhouse/controlled system. Thanks for watching the video and commenting!
Hi can I use the cover of the large Tupperware container instead of the plastic bag?
Will this work in the summer?
Yes. Actually it works better due to warmer temperatures. Thanks for the question, and we hope you subscribed!
Homesteading Off The Grid awesome, thank you!
Good afternoon Homstead, not sure what time is at the place you live in, but if it is not 4am, i just sent a post with question to you, right now it is at the top as the newest one,so if you could reply today, i would start right now cutting those branches:) thanks
WOW! 50+ dollars for a 4feet tree! I live in Spain and everyone complains about the price of them being expensive in the garden centres. How much do we pay? well converting euro to dollars it would be about $4.50 for a 4 foot tree! I won'tbe complaining anymore. You can buy a 10foot tree for around $10.
Very interesting thank you for sharing
I think I missed something.
At one point you said they can grow 5 to 6 feet per year but then you said the ones you are displaying are 3 years old and they are only about 3 or 4 feet tall. Not sure I understand
I appreciate. Thank you!
Is it possible in summer??
Absolutely. It works best in summer, because it's easier to maintain the humid environment within the plastic cover. Thanks for watching our video.
