Rooting Ginko
Hi all.
Happy New Year to everyone! My question: I have a small Ginko tree that was broken in half by a wind driven object. Fortunately I had let a sucker grow that I had planned on cutting off this spring. I was just wondering on how is the best way to start cuttings on this tree? I cut off some of the branches and dipped them in rooting hormone and stuck in a large pot and left it outside in a protected area. Any other suggestions or ideas? Thanks. Mark In Oklahoma -- |

Leave your broken ginkgo alone, it will send out new branches and continue to grow. I don't know if you can root the severed portion. I have two ginkgos, also small, about 2" caliper... in early spring when the new shoots appear sometimes larger birds (crows/ravens) alight on them and they snap right off, but then they grow back. Young gingko shoots are rather weak and brittle, but the previous year's growth is very strong and tough, what could have severed your tree, are you sure it wasn't done deliberately?
