In a little spinney on one of my usual dog walk routes there are a mix of Scots pine, maple, blackthorn etc planted around 30 years ago. These are pretty much my only local Scots pines of any note (that I have yet found) which aren’t all ginormous mature trees. Even in this lot most are well past the stage of being collectible, however, there is one smallIish one around 15ft tall that has a lot of potential down low with trunk and nebari, but no foliage that low (the lowest live branch being around 6 feet up).
As I have not been able to find a single wild grown seedling, sapling or small tree of any conifer near me I am wondering if it may be possible to graft some branches in lower positions on this tree, then in time remove the top and eventually collect the tree itself. Is this a technique anyone has employed? Would it even be possible? Thanks.
