Default [IBC] Black Olive

Ben Griffin wrote:

I collected a huge black olive tree from the mountains of california
the other day. Its tap root was not an option so i chopped it off.
I did a clean cut with a saw along the base of the trunk. I soaked it
in superthrive for about 1 hour. The trunk is about 10 inches thick
and the part of the rootball i cut is about a foot and a quarter long.
Any other suggestions as to get it to grow roots.

Thanks
Ben



Ben:
Visit www.dugzbonsai.com. He starts new trees from chunks of wood. I couldn't do
that in New York, I'm sure.
