I have a Trident Maple. Some of the branches are new this year and some
are 2-3 years old. I would like to take cuttings of these. What is the
best way and time of year to do this?

M. Dirr recommends cuttings taken from a mature tree in late June and
treated with 2.0% IBA four nodes, tip removed, 9 perlite and 1 peat. 70
degrees F bottom heat.
