How do I grow a tree from a branch?
"MC Emily" wrote in message
... Hi I have a Cherry tree with a branch (about 12" long) below the graft. If I cut it off, how do I get it to grow into a tree? Does it need rooting hormone or something? Do I do it indoors or outdoors? Is it the wrong time of year? I'm not sure what to do with it but I hate letting things die and have plenty of room for new trees, so I'd like to grow it on. Any advice would be most welcome. Thanks. Jaqy Dont. It will be rootstock so it wont be the same as your cherry , and not very good either (why graft something else on top of it otherwise?!) Would you spend time growing a weed when you could have a good plant instead? You cannot grow everything, just look at the seeds even one plant will produce, the idea is to be selective and grow stuff that is worthwhile. If you want a new cherry tree buy something good rather than just try and fill the space available. -- Tumbleweed Remove my socks before replying (but no email reply necessary to newsgroups) |
