Reproducing hydrangeas is fairly easy: you definitely don't need to be a professional gardener to reproduce hydrangeas. Best way to reproduce hydrangeas is from cuts.

Remember though that asexual reproduction does not preserve the variety of species. Seed reproduction does instead. Always reproduce hydrangeas from seeds if available.

First, prepare your cuts from a mature plant in late Summer or early Fall. Cut hydrangea branches 1/3 from top to bottom. Take all cuts you think needed paying attention to cut green wood.

Stick cuts in wet (not soggy) soil in a bright spot which receives shaded light. Never put cuts under direct sun light. Temperature and humidity should be constant around 10-16 degrees Celsius.

Rooting takes about three to five weeks. You can check your cuts pulling them out. If the cut sticks to the soil, it's rooting. Be careful though: never pull too hard. You might also check new growth.

It takes two to three years to grow a whole bush. First year you will have just little plants with nothing but a few small leaves. It will take cuts two to three years to get blooming: just wait an you'll see.
