Ed - Would you believe I got my C's mixed up (blame the heat) on the way to take cuttings? Here's the hydrangea cuttings. Always take them from a stem that is not in flower - the back of the shrub is an ideal spot.

Take cuttings: since the difference between the nodes vary there is no way I can give you a specific length but 6 to 7" works fine for me. You will want at least one node buried - more success (for me) with two nodes.
