Thank you for your simple, straight-to-the-point video on how to propagate wisteria. I wish all tutorials were like yours
Any follow up on how the cuttings did?
A little informative i found 🤷🏻♂️ info that could be easily given in the video, is for some reason, neglected to be mentioned.
I have great success growing wisteria from seeds. In the late winter-early spring, the flat burgundy seeds pop out of the long pods. I gather up a few dozen and keep them outside for the rest of the winter. In the late spring, I soak them for a day or two and then plant them in average soil, just under the surface of the soil. The majority will take. Another way I grow wisteria is to look under my wisteria tree in May - July. Many of the seeds I didn't gather in the winter will have rooted in the grass under the tree. I mow the yard weekly, and about 3 days after mowing I'll see lots of little plantlets under the tree. Each plant has a single seed that is visible on the top of the soil at the base of the plantlet. About half of these transplants will survive.
omg a random bunny just popped out of no where. So cute
AlwaysThere LOL, Ya they do that. We've got a few rabbits, chickens and ducks that live here. (they love to pop into the show whenever they can - and especially when i am digging.)
I know I saw that lol adorbs. He’s like this is my chance to shine lol
Just found you, love the spontaneity, you're a welcome fresh breeze instead of the usual boring instructional video. The accent is delightful to listen to and anyone that likes bunnies and other of natures creatures is ok by me.
Thanks!
I screamed when the bunny hopped by
Thank you for sharing. The second method (stems without foliage) is common, but the first method with foliage included is new to me - very helpful!
Also, the rabbit made this video at least 10% more enjoyable.
Thanks!
I like the video as clear demonstrations on how do cuttings from Wisteria. I have found that simply cutting one of the inch thick stalks and pushing it into the ground after a rain works quite well. In fact too well. It is an extremely aggressive plant, but possible in Europe not so much so. In the US, though, wisteria will completely take over anything it grows next to that will support it within just a few years. It loves to explore and will reach across gaps of a meter or two to reach an inviting structure to go after. That fence will be almost invisible in another 10 years.
Wisteria is lovely to look at and many animals are attracted to it. I think it is always a beautiful addition growing on a house or gazebo. Like most cultivated plants as long as it's not growing wild and killing native trees in the forest it's ok. The hope is nature will balance it's self out eventually. 🐝
I have tried this and so far so good, thank you for the post.
Love this…. Straight to the point.
You are Hysterical;;;along with knowing your stuff. Also liked the totally black rabbit hopping in the background
Hi +Karin Bingman, Thanks! I come by it naturally. This episode was particularly nutty. Thanks stopping by and giving me feed back. I really appreciate your kind words.
Happy Gardening,
Scarlett
I love watching u. You are so helpful. Thank you. The rabbit appearing was great!
Awesome update thank you for sharing have a blessed weekend
I eyed a beautiful Wisteria at my daughter's office building for years but thought I would need a large cutting. Now I know I can do it with no damage results!
Thanks for adding a new technique to my collection.
P.S. good luck with the neighbors/Lavender and attacking rabbits
+Mark Brown, Your very welcome Mark.
Happy Gardening,
Scarlett
The more I prune mine the fuller the flowers come back!
Did anybody else see that rabbit?
+David Peterson I saw it too, and then I wondered if that was its hutch behind Scarlett.
+David Peterson, lol yes you did see a rabbit. I have a few toilet trained pet rabbits that live careless in the house (they mostly hang out in the living room) and are free to come and go from garden to house whenever they want. they put their paws up on the window if the doors closed and they want in or out.
Happy Gardening,
Scarlett
+ctrygrl3, Not a rabbit cage... instead we have door-less shelters around the garden for the pets to hang out in when they want shade or the cat to get out the rain.
Yes sure was cute
You live in a magical wonderland!💗
i love wisterias! I had to leave both my tree and vine at my old house. They are beautiful. Thanks for your video.
TheEmptynester That's very sad! When we move the grounds will be bare. It's all coming with me. :)
getting all these plants out of this garden and into the next will be a nightmare! thank goodness I have no plans of moving anytime soon.
Scarlett
They only let me take samples of 8 plants. In the sales contract. I had over 250 hostas and many other things. I miss my plants but will never spend that amount of money again collection them.
Wow!! I feel you pain. what do you have now?
I love the Cameo appearance from your lovely back bunny.also very good information.
I love the wild rabit that came into your video, so it grab my attention so I had to watch your video once again. But I must say your video very informative information. Thank you. From Canada
Perfect video! Quick and to the point! Thank you!
Perfect timing! A friend just gave me a few wisteria clippings and said i can just put them in water and they will root quickly. After watching your video im going to try both dirt and water rootings. I also had very long clippings and just had them in water. You've shown me that isnt going to work either. Hopefully i can start the clippings in early August and the can make it through a Michigan winter. I purchased a trellis arbor for the wisteria the same day i got the clippings guess you could call me optimistic...lol! Thanks for the information. Oh yeah... i definitely need a bunny or two for my backyard..lol! Maybe i just start with the wisteria first!!
Thanks for sharing Scarlett, I've subscribed :)
What a beautiful black bunny...
You are making this look too easy Scarlett. I understand about allergies. I have a problem with perfumes. I can be working in my garden behind my house. That is 50 meters back from the road. There is particular perfume that will give me an instant headache. If someone drives by with there windows open, I can smell it and I will get an instant headache. Thank you for the post and have a great day!
dakotabob10 I am sure I replied to you a few hours ago?! hummm
Well what I sad was...
WOW, You have one extremely sensitive allergy to perfume!
Thanks for sharing,
Scarlett
Love wisteria! Thanks for the info!
Mrssoappeddler Your very welcome!
I love this planet and depending on where you live, it will absolutely take over your yard
I grow mine as bonsai.
Hey do you have any tips on how to do that? How is it now?
Very interesting and easy to follow
Love those planter boxes. Have you made a video on making those?
Just great information 👏👏👏👌👌👌👌👌
bunny!!! I love your videos. So fun.
Thank you!
I was lucky enough to be given a wisteria, I have had it for like 3 years now, never seen a flower, dont know what color they are but im gonna propagate to make more thank you so much for your video, you now have a new subscriber
I heard they take up to 10 or 12 years to make flowers, when grown from seed.
@@TripleDDDD I didn't know that, you learn something everyday. :)
Hi really enjoyed your video! Do you need 2 plants for pollination, and if so do they need to come from different wisteria plants?
Wisteria sends out runners and unless you maintain it it will spread through your yard and into your neighbors. Plant a less invasive plant! I just spent four hours removing vines from trees and riping up runners
Thank you, helpful video! The vocals are quite low but I got the gist of it. Love the rabbit surprise at 3:23!
thank u ur such a doll 😀
Hello! I have my cuttings growing in a vase for about 6 or 7 weeks. Some of them didn’t go through but there are at least two that seem ok. What shall I do now? Shall I move them to separate and bigger vases?
Thank you!
Hey, did you ever do a follow up? Wondering which worked better. I just planted some clippings from an evergreen wisteria, and I'm hoping to plant them under my deck. It's got to be the prettiest vine I've ever seen. Thank you
we all have to get along with our neighbors. we all have lives.
Love the black bunny! I am allergic to honey suckle. It is so annoying coz I love it.
Anne Fricker I totally know how you feel :)
Hi Scarlett, I realize that this is an older video, but it’s exactly what I needed, thank you! I may be a bit of a dunce, but I don’t seem to be able to find your “propagating soil mixture” video...can you (or anyone else) please help me? I could spend hours and hours on your channel (and will eventually, I suspect!) but need to go be productive! Thanks so much!
Hi Scarlett! Great information. I have been looking for your video with the type or mix of your soil. Could I bother you to help me find that video? Loads of thanks and watch out neighbors because I'm going to have a great wisteria plant, in a year or so! 😉
Scarlett thank you for a great video! Glad I found your channel 👍Which method worked best?
Both work well. 😊
Choose American wisteria over Chinese wisteria, especially in the south, where it's highly invasive.
Dang I'm so amped to try this! Any tips looking back for greater chance of success?
Scarlet I really enjoyed your video. Very fun and interesting.. you are great . Keep up the good job.
Ps: I can't find the instructions/video where you mentioned what is needed compost mix wise to grow the cuttings . Please send me the link. Safx
How many days will it take to root? Thank you for sharing.
I would love to see the results as the outcome of all prolagating options.
Good stuff. Glad you keep in all the retakes and the neighbor's saw sound - way better than a sterile "this is how to properly propagate wisteria" video.
I like your wood planting boxes there.
Thanks for posting!
+Matthew Cuba, Thanks. I try to keep it real which isn't hard since it is very real. I'm glad you liked it.
Scarlett

random bunny hoppin by
came for info got a extra bunny cameo
Okay Scarlett I tried from my aunts plant years ago and failed. I remembered you and watched again. Mine are out of control now so I am taking cuttings to root. Mine bloom so I want a clone or clones for mom so she can have some that bloom.
Loved this video. Informative and very helpful. Looking for a wisteria that will thrive in zone 4b in Colorado--any ideas?
+Mark Shaver, I bought a few this summer I’m keeping them in a large self watering pot in the living room. (We recently moved to zone 5b in Canada) Eventually i hope to once again grow lots of wisteria. But for now I’m also learning. As soon as i find a good hardy plant I’ll do a video on it. 😁
I have a friend that is allergic to avocados but he LOVES to eat them. Everytime he eats one a huge ugly (Like in the movie the Help) lump grows on his lip. Hilarious! But poor him XD
Rachel C :)
For the noise, a lapel mic (the kind that clips into your shirt collar) helps tremendously.
ya sorry this episode was filmed many years ago. I have since up graded all of my equipment.
He there Scarlett you have a great channel.
if i may comment on the cutlings. you might want to try sometimes to wound the cutling when it is still on the main plant.
then rap wet cotton around it then rap aluminum foil around that. keep it wet till roots grow out and then cut it of and plant it.
its fast cheap and easy. and fun. : )
thanks for your vids.
Erik Wappa
Hi Erik,
the propagating technique you described is called air layering. This is how I like to propagate my fig trees and the occasional rose bush. I did something similar in the episode 'propagating raspberries'.
Thanks for the tip.
Scarlett
:)
Nice you are a true pro.
i will check out propagating raspberries.
keep up the good work.
Would love to see how these very plants turned out. Do you think you could give us another little window into how they grew? LOVED your video...despite the crazy people around you, you made it fun to watch. I'll be back for more!
Hi blondmyk, I will definitely do a few more episodes on the wisteria. The wisteria on this wall is just starting to green up where as the wisteria growing on the main pavilion on the patio is now starting to bloom. I'll do a follow up to this and show you how much it has grown probably in June when it is fully green and maybe again at the end of the season in September.
Thanks for stopping by!
Happy Gardening,
Scarlett
How to Grow a Garden with Scarlett Damen i hope i see this video passing when you do that..
ward coysman Here's this springs wisteria update. th-cam.com/video/4kBqpNXGuhs/w-d-xo.html (I cover both this wall wisteria and the white flowering wisteria that's growing on the pavilion)
Love it - how long does it take to see roots in the water?
What is the best time of year for this? We got married in a beach when the wild wisteria was in full bloom and would love a cutting of this particular Wisteria for our yard. Covid-19 prevented us from having the ceremony to renew our vows this year so this would be a perfect year to propagate our cuttings.
The Black Rabbit of Inle! Run!
Good morning 🌄
What is the cage behind you? Rabbit?
It's very nice. Thanks for the great info
Is there a follow-up video on how they all went? I'm curious about the one in the water. Also, if I can take cuttings right at the start of spring when green buds form.
Yes check out my wisteria playlist for an update of my wisterias. starting the cuttings in water is my go to technique.
Black bunny!! Now I learned two things
Which prop method forms roots the quickest?
When is the best time you start to cutting for to grow a other one??
Hi Scarlet! How are you doing?
The video is SUPER, lot of techniques, definitely worth it!
I live in Italy and in my country-side house I have a wonderful wisteria and since I was a baby planting boy I'm trying to plant my own one from branches but I've never succeeded! When do you think it's better to practice these techniques of propagation? Can I do them now or is it better in June with the start of the summer?
Have a nice day!
I'd start them now and keep them in the window all winter and if they don't take try again in the spring. Try this: take your cuttings and wounding the bottom, remove most of the leaves but don't hurt the nodes at the base of the leaves. Them put your cuttings in a glass of water for a month or more and if they sprout plant them up.
Please can you tell me the wiche time can i plant wisteria from seed and from cuting ❤
Great video! Can you do forsythia and willow the same way? Lilac?
Yes you can 😊
Lmao my neighbor's the same way so I feel for you
What a bummer being allergic to lavender! I wonder if you'd have the same reaction to Russian sage. It kind of has the same look in a garden...kind of. Neither my mom or I are allergic to poison ivy. We can rip it out with bare hands and never get a single bump. But I've got to be careful so I don't infect my family since the rest of them are all highly allergic. They come running when they see poison ivy so I can intervene! Again, great video. After this series I'm going to have to restrain myself from going around the neighborhood snipping people's garden specimens! LOL
brightpurpleviking Wouldn't that be cute! dressed in all black with garden snippers and a spray painted black basked on your arm. Sneaking down the street in the middle of the night. :) You might as well be tossing some guerrilla gardening seed bombs while your at it. :)
LOL! How would I explain that to a policeman? "Yes, officer. I truly was only interested in their rare variety of trumpet vine."
brightpurpleviking
Sure, sure, hands on you head!
6:32 ..best rabbit appearence ever ! :) hue hue hue hue !!! ^-^ ..btw, could you show us the "wounding" thing a little closer ? ....dont quite got the idea on how its done :[ (or another explicit video on this technique)
sorin990 Basically just scratch that outside layer off.
Like with people, if our top layer of skin gets taken off (road rash, etc) we naturally produce a puss like gel to "mend" our "wound".
However, with flowers, trees, vines, etc, it will produce new roots instead of a cover as our skin does (scar tissue)
So it's easy just take off some of that outer layer on whatever you are trying to get roots to grow from.
It works on anything you're trying to propagate and it's very simple.
Just scratch with the sides of the sharp edge of scissors,etc.
Good luck!! 🤗
Rabbit steals the show?
3:21
Hy. How long does it take to root for the first example the one with leafs put in the pot? Also are you using rooting hormon for them? And how high is the rooting procent approximately? As I may not have a second chance to thaik cutting from thet specific wisteria to not freak is oner out with going back as he is a stranger hu let my thake a cutt, and may not like being botherd a second time...
Klara-Maria Varro If you only have one chance at taking a cutting and you want 100% success than I recommend practice on plants your already growing. It definitely takes practice and patience to get the cuttings to grow. I'd say on average there is a 70% success rate. some cutting just don't want to root. As for rooting hormone I use honey. It keeps the wound moist and protected from disease as honey is an antiseptic. (Honey also works wonders on human cuts and scratches too.) It can take a month or two for the cutting to develop roots. the secret here is patience make sure you choose a pot that you can leave the cutting in for quite some time and never let it dry out.
Hope that helps.
Scarlett
Thanks hope that I will succeed
Hello. in which month can do so?
Thank You!
you're welcome
@@HowToGrowAGarden Hello again! Tip: I tried to grow Wisteria from seeds (beans). They begin beautiful. After they consume seed nutrients most of them die. Because root cannot follow the growing of the plant. So, the tip: After they reach 2-3 leaves You cut the upper side of the little plant, so to let only the first (bottom) leave. From this leave begins the plant! For sure!
How long you leave plastic bag on for? How long before they start roots
Just a thought...but why would you not just inform people of the preferred soil type to propagate Wisteria in!? 🤔 Easier than referring to the comments, which I never do...I literally just skipped this video, as it's not informative enough, and moved onto the next.
How about mentioning how long it will take to root, how long one has to keep it in a warm place before planting out, how long in water before roots should appear, and how long to flower once rooted and planted out? Not enough detail in the video.... nice bunny though. What about the compost mix ratios? I could go on but have moaned enough.
4-6 weeks Normally
extremely easy ,how long to take to bloom fall is okey to propagate
They take a few years to grow large enough to bloom.
Great video thanks (y) I bought a Wisteria plant the other day ago and found out that the plant right at the top was broken :-( ...can I still propergate it ?
Jeanne Märtin If it's a small plant (less that 5 feet tall) I recommend planting it now and letting its roots develop. I would then start propagating it next year. The top being broken isn't a problem in fact this means your plant will now make more shoots and you'll get a bushier wisteria next year (with more ends to propagate from)
Happy Gardening,
Scarlett
How to Grow a Garden with Scarlett Damen Oh thanks a lot. I think one can put a bit of Hormone rooting power on the top that was broken for it to grow again . :-)
No worries It will grow side shoots from the nodes just below the break. :-)
Thank you so much for the video. I have a pathetic looking Wisteria...it's been a year or two, and it's still tiny. TINY. How long do I expect to see some flowers?
ThursdayDog Your very welcome. The wisteria featured in this episode is 4 year old. You might want to feed it and definitely give it some time to get going. It helps if it's not competing with other plants (weeds) I like to keep the base weed free and mulched with finished compost.
Give it some time, sun, water and food and it'll grow.
4 year old? WOW...I must be doing something wrong. My wisteria is now 3 year old, and it is just an extremely extremely small plant. They are free from weed, and I do mulch them. Thank you.
ThursdayDog Perhaps it needs more food. this plant is growing right next to the rabbits favourite hang out spot in the garden. it gets lots and lots of constant mild fertiliser in the form of rabbit droppings. I think that might explain the difference.
Thank you so much.
I really enjoyed watching this video, even the (unfortunate) part with your allergies. I guess I appreciated the realness of the video. :) Anyway, I tried all of your strategies X2 and only the water cuttings are still alive over a month later. I haven't seen the slightest bit of root forming though so I'm not sure if they are truly successful or not. I don't really know what to do... should I keep them and keep waiting? I'm worried about the brownish slime that begins forming on plants in water.
Tracie Howe PS: the original plant is a beautiful specimen if that makes any difference.
Hi Tracie Howe, Although taking cuttings in theory is really simple in reality its crazy hard. It took me 3 years and several tries a year to get it right. I find I have the most success taking the cutting placing it in water for 3 or 4 days and then potting it up in very damp soil. the key here is to keep the soil wet/soggy and warm. (and I have better success when I keep the pot in the shade) when I see new leaves on top I then know roots are being formed. You can move the pot into the ground but it's hard to keep it really wet when it's in the ground. they should be treated more as seedlings for the first year or so. In regards to the cutting you have I like to change the water every 2 or 3 days. Let me know if that helps.
Scarlett
How to Grow a Garden with Scarlett Damen Thank you for your quick response! Good to know it's hard for an expert too. :) I can try a few planting in soil. Can you recommend the best soil mix for that? I seem to struggle with the right soils more than anything.
Hi Tracie Howe, My recipe is lots of black humus (finished compost) with a bit of sand and lots of one year old horse manure and a bunch of worms. This is what I use everywhere.
3:22 is that your pet wabit? Never had any luck but I will try your methods. Thanks
yep there are many animals hopping around here. lol all are my pets.
are these the same as the water wisteria... that people plant in aquariums??
+Ty Dang, that would need to be one HUGE aquarium.
No, I think you're talking about a different plant.
Scarlett
How do you know when to repot wisteria?
When is the best time to do this? spring?
Spring or early summer is best. But I have also propagated wisteria in fall.
Thanks for the info. Have a not quite yet, 60 year old Wisteria, and wondered if I could propagate it. I want Wisteria on the Hong Kong Orchid tree, the large Mango tree, and the Magnolia in yard #2. Wisteria is, for Central Florida standards, awfully hard to find here in the Tampa Bay area. As that one idiot over at the nursery in St. Pete said: "They don't make them anymore"....LOL! And I can relate to plant allergies. I found out the hard way, that I am allergic to mango, and the squirrels and rabbits in my 2 yards front and back, keep dragging the pits, and they grow into trees. Have 3 now, including the parent tree, and it's going to bear several hundred mangos....again. I can use the shade, and the neighborhood loves the large purplish mangos....I can't chop it down, lest I anger the peace in the neighborhood....LOL!
😂😂😂Toodle loo❤❤❤
How to make them flowers after that ?
I love wisteria, but it doesn't do well over here. How sad to be allergic to lavender, I'm allergic to trees in the spring and ragweed in summer, I sympathize :/
Hello. I noticed you did not use any hormone powder - do you recommend not using? Thanks for the video.
+MARY MEADOWS, I found I never needed it. I do occasionally use honey for the plants that are harder to propagate.
+How to Grow a Garden with Scarlett Damen ooh duh' i now remember seeing a video that suggested that before. glad i saw that. and i will be checking out more of your videos . thanks
Aloe Vera gel contains salicylic acid, the active ingredient in rooting hormone. Cover the cut end in gel and keep moist.
😍
These will take forever to bloom, won't they? Air layering is the way to do it if you want a blooming plant.
If you want to see the Black rabbit go to time 3:21, your welcome 😊
I grow mine from seeds from the two existing plants
There is a lot of wild Wisteria where I live.
+David Peterson, I bet it's beautiful!
Yes. And smells great. It will be spread across four or five 50 foot trees on the side of the road.
Shouldn't I wait until autumn when plant is dormant to take cuttings? It looks like it is Spring in the video
Cuttings from the new growth vines in the spring will take to rooting easer then cuttings taking from old growth vines.
👍❤️
How long will it take to bloom afterwards....?
Hi Cathy Aragon, if a small cutting grows in optimal conditions it should take 2 to 3 years to get establish in its new spot, grow tall and start blooming. If it's a cutting from an old plant and you use a branch instead of just a small twig or leaf cutting it will still take way less time to establish its self.
So the answer is 2 to 3 years.
Happy gardening
Scarlett
No rooting hormone?
how do you know you donn have it upside down/ you are rather fast. i rewound a few times....
She didn’t say when best time to do that. Does anyone know?
Please give a link or comment on the progress.
My wisteria did really well. Here’s the link to my wisteria playlist. th-cam.com/play/PLq4H-jGGfMPawxccOf1sQVHjYHjxp6cD0.html
My wisteria comes every year but never flowers only leaves. Any idea?
They usally start only after 10 years but then come out in all their glory.
