I live in Virginia, basically in the middle of woods. My home is surrounded by trees. There are a good many Dogwood trees that are just naturally growing through out. I have recently cleared an area for a butterfly garden and have found many small Dogwood trees that can't stay, but their roots are entwined with each other and other tree's roots. I have a soft spot for Dogwoods and my question is this. Is there a way that I can clear the area, but save the little trees somehow? If I cut some branches will they root? I'm VERY new to gardening and could use all the advice I can get.
