Semi-hardwood cuttings will take easily now. Tear off short pieces of this
year's growth, with a heel, dip in water, then rooting hormone powder and
push into sharp sand/peat (50/50) mix. Water thoroughly and keep in a
shaded, wind free spot or under staging in a green house.

Speaking of which, I was thinking of asking a neighbor if I could take
some cuttings of a crab apple tree. Would this work? How might I best
accomplish this?
