This listing is for five 4-7" live unrooted cuttings of Damson purple plum tree. I am in zone 8b and it grows very well here and produces lots of fruit. Cuttings will be cut fresh upon order. They will be shipped in a moist cloth to help keep fresh.
Spring/summer - cuttings will have top leaves that may fall during the rooting process
Autumn/winter - cuttings will not have leaves because they are dormant
To root cuttings after receiving:
**Note: a node is the part of a plant stem from which one or more leaves emerge, often forming a slight swelling or knob.
Dip/roll the bottom section of the cutting (including some of the nodes) into rooting hormone (cinnamon reputedly works as a rooting hormone, or you can buy rooting powder hormone online or at a store in the garden section). Rooting hormone is not necessary, but it speeds up the process and can help the rooting be more successful.
Plant the cutting into a container of potting soil, being sure to plant it deep enough to cover some of the nodes (this is where roots will grow). Be sure to keep the soil moist to encourage rooting.
After 6 weeks, gently tug the cutting up to see if there is resistance - if so, the cutting has taken root.
When new growth appears, it can be transplanted into its' permanent spot.
