Hi everyone,
Does anyone have experience collecting Prunus serotina ssp. capuli? One of those guys was growing in my backyard for 3 years. I never planted it, it just appeared one day. It reached about 4 or 5 feet, then I pruned it back and it re-bud, and grow again about 3 feet. It was growing just to the side of a wall, and nobody wanted there so I dug and pulled it, but unfortunately not many feeder roots were near the surface, but I pulled it anyways. It’s been in a plastic pot for three weeks now, some leaves turned yellow and fell, but I has many others that are green.
You cannot see it from the picture but it has a quite long foot, a root maybe 1-foot long that is why I had to plant it near the edge. I also used rooting hormone in the cuts to help it to produce roots.
Do you think it has chances of survival?
The base is around 3 inches and is about 3 feet tall.
Any information or comment will be appreciated.
Best regards,
Napo
