making cuttings of Colorado blue spruce
One could say the most pretty tree is the Colorado blue spruce or the
Concolor Fir. As the old adage goes -- "spruce up the looks of the house". Well out of my 175 Rock Elm seeds only 4 made it and are doing well, provided can keep the grasshoppers from devouring them. But my cuttings of Rock Elm all failed. In their place I have blue spruce going in that greenhouse setting. I used root hormone and am misting several times a day. If none of them make it, it will be my last attempt on blue spruce. And I will conclude that some species are just too difficult to root via cuttings for which I do not have the time. Now this year I had a beautiful blood red lilly growing. Does anyone know if lillies are good cutting-propagation plants? How about honeylocust? How about black-walnuts? How about sour cherries? Are any of these easier to cutting-propagate. Perhaps none as easy as Willows, but at least easier than elm or blue spruce.
