Timing Dilemma
The other night, at Bill's auction, I bought a 3-gallon 'Arakawa' maple. It
needs major pruning & styling. One expert said to work on deciduous trees in the winter when the leaves are off so you can see what you are doing. However, since it is not a common variety, I wanted to save the cuttings for my club. Bill said the best time to take cuttings is in June. Any way I can compromise? Would it be possible to prune the tree in February or March, when the sap starts running, and root the cuttings under lights or in a greenhouse?
