Well, I don't know about date trees in particular, but I'd just cut off
a decent sized branch, stick it in water, and wait till it grows roots.
Works for most other plants. Nothing special.

Cheers,

I bought a house that has a nice well producing date tree that the

previous

owner had planted. I would like to start at least one another tree like

it.

Can I somehow start another from the branches or something of this one? If
so how?
