Default Can I start a tree from a leave, how?

"Roger Zimmerman" wrote in message

Kay,

I looked up the methods you mentioned, but the problem is I am going to
a public area to get the leaves to start new trees, so I don't have the
options you mentioned. I am comfortable taking off a few leaves, but
not taking any cuttings, or doing air layering.

Any other ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks again

Roger



It's a cool thing to learn, but if you want trees in your lifetime, you're
probably better off getting them from a reliable, inexpensive source:
www.musserforests.com

If you only see big trees that cost a lot on the web site, pick up the phone
and call them.
Read that again.

Their catalog used to include very small saplings sold in quantities like
dozens, very cheap.
