Tree

Question

If I break a branch from my Leyland tree and plant it into the ground will it reroute and grow again?

Answer 1

The bigger the branch, the less likely it will be to take root. With trees such as this it can take months to grow roots. It is best to use a rooting hormone, and keep the branch in a moist ,but not sopping wet, environment.
