how to take tamarisk cutting

Sep 27, 2011 1 Replies

hallo,


there are many tamarisks in the area so i think they must like the conditions. i would like to take a cutting of one.


questions



- a soft-wood or hardwood cutting?



- which time of year to do it in, now its end september, is this ok?



- can i stick it straight into soil where i want it to grow?



- will it grow fast: i need some privacy-cover



thanks to all

-- most certainly - am on southern shore of lake balaton in hungary. land very flat water-table high so anything that can take up groundwater like my willow is a bonus! i have not seen very many around here and they certainly do not appear to be invasive. so yes, yes, i will be having a tamarisk. (i'd love to be able to afford to go see the grand canyon and see your problem for myself!)

thanks

karaman
