2014 tree growing season
Too early for giant pumpkins. Too early for my garden vegetables. But a perfect time to start this year's trees. Today OP-367 poplar. Tomorrow I'll start some hybrid willow cuttings.

Re: 2014 tree growing season
I started growing some 0P-367s last spring. They only grew about a foot last year. Hopefully they will really grow good this year.
It's not the knowing that's difficult, but the doing.

What is the average growth a year in our neck of the woods? Do they grow fast enough to create cover and edges in a year or two?

Re: 2014 tree growing season
3-7 feet per year depending on the summer heat and how often you water...so yes to your second question .

Good stuff thanks for sharing.
You can fool some of the bucks, all of the time, and fool all of the bucks, some of the time, however you certainly can't fool all of the bucks, all of the time.

That's cool, are they rooted cuttings?
A buck will see you three times, and hear you twice, but he's only gonna smell you once.

Nope. Sticks planted in the ground.
These particular cuttings were established with rooting hormone; however, cutting can be established by lightly shaving areas where you want to establish roots.
