Default cutting back a bay tree

Ah, yes, also trim it during the growing season. I'd leave it a couple of
feet tall at least until it starts growing in the spring. Then you can cut
back as needed for height.

Looks like you'll have lots of bay leaves to give away!


So you think I can go ahead NOW and cut down to a couple feet on both
those big parts and it'll be fine? I hate to hurt this fella, he's been
real patient with me.

Also- say I cut off a 2-3 foot piece of bay tree. Will it make roots in a
glass of water? Or is that a waste of time? Mama might like a bay tree. :-)

Thanks for your time.
