| Laburnum Cutting at about 2 years. 11.9.14 |
Today I dug up some of the starts I had around the yard Some were in a vegetable bed that I want to re-orient to vegetables next spring. Some were in a hedge row and had been chewed by herbivores (Laburnums). The gingkos needed to come out of the iris raised bed before the roots extended past the chicken wire bottom.
I planted one
forsythia start where I dug out the laburnums. The other is shown here. I repotted with intent to give more TLC next year for faster growth.
Similar for the
ginkgo seedlings. These have good root systems.
One
laburnum was especially chewed up. So much for them being toxic and repelling herbivores. The other had more roots than expected for size.
Not bad for not trying all that hard. Especially the forsythias - all I did with those was stick dormant prunings into the ground, late winter.
