hi there!

Writing from Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

I've sold my house and will be moving out this weekend. I want to take
some branches from fruit trees (apple, cherry, pear) and red roses that
are about 25 years old.

Is it possible to grow anything from these branches and how would I go
about it transporting them/cultivating them despite this cold weather.
We're in the middle of winter right now, but this week in particular is
going to be hovering ever closer to the + side.

I was thinking of doing some cuttings and then wrapping the cut ends with
soaked paper towels and putting them in a plastic bag. Then transfer them
to a pot with soil and cultivating them indoors (of course).


Fruit trees are usually grafted to rootstock.
