When you snip off a branch off a tree, stick it in soil, will the branch grow roots?
I place a branch from Kieffer pear tree in a flower pot with potting soil to keep it from compacting, and make sure the soil is wet. Then, keep it in a shaded area with minimum sunlight. I didn't use the rooting hormone, but it starts to grow tiny green leaves and new roots in a month. Amazing!
Some simple techniques:
Propagation of Woody Plants/ Tree by Cuttings Branch
Grow Cuttings from Established Plants
Grow more plants with root cuttings

It's just lucky. I have tried several times, only this one grows.
ReplyDeleteGood job VueJardin! This pear tree really grows well at your place. I wonder how long does it need to grow until it bear fruits.
ReplyDeletePossible it will take a long time to grow taller and bear fruits, hopes it's like an ornamental tree.
