Default [IBC] English Hawthorn

Hi Iris...I have a similar situation with an english hawthorn...very one
sided nebari. This past spring I did a workshop with Pauline Muth ,and after she
had a look she had me make a small vertical incision right down into the
cambium about where I needed roots...she gave me some of her hormone powder and I
dusted the cut...wrapped it in sphagnum and waited. I had a little look last
week and lo an behold...there are some new roots coming along !...obviously
this is a springtime operation but worth the wait. I'm not sure but I thought
she had actually said that these weren't usually the best candidates for
grafting roots...however my memory...................???? best of luck BobO
