Bay Trees

A friend had a great small bay tree, in a big pot, stands about 5' tall. Will it be possible to take a 'cutting' and prepare it with rooting compound, and pot up etc etc. Any advice please, where to cut, when to cut, what to pot up in, and success rate ??? Bay tree cuttings are best taken in the late fall. They are fairly slow to root, but eventually will do so. However, the plant is no rarity and unless your friend's is some special form -- golden leaved or willow leaved or 'crispa' or something like that -- you'd probably be better off just buying a small start. This comment, of course, does not take into account any sentimental considerations. -- Rodger Whitlock Victoria, British Columbia, Canada |
