The invention discloses a cutting propagation method for fothergilla major 'Mount Airy', and belongs to the technical field of plant propagation. The method comprises the following steps that 1, a fothergilla major 'Mount Airy' female parent cutting orchard is built on a proper propagation place; 2, a matrix is contained in a 72-hole disc; 3, the proper cutting time is the first ten-day period of September, and cutting is carried out once every year; 4, cutting branches are soaked with a root promoting agent; 5, cutting is carried out through the 72-hole disc; 6, 40 days after cutting, about 95% of cutting roots, and seedling hardening can be started. The cutting propagation method for the fothergilla major 'Mount Airy' can be suitable for the weather and soil environments of our country, and is good in rooting condition, easy to operate and high in propagation speed, and the yield reaches up to 95%; the method is high in adaptability, can be used for commercialized large-scale production, is good in repeatability, and is reported for the first time at home, and the blank of the correlation technique fields at home is filled in.
