I have seen examples in the past of creating olive bonsai by planting a stump or large branch with no roots (OK, a cutting, but a huge cutting, several inches in diameter). As I am about to remove an interesting branch from an olive tree in my garden, I would like to try this out. My question is would this be the right time to do it, or should I wait until spring? This is an ultra-hardwood mature branch.
Note that air-layering is not an option as I would be cutting it right where it joins the trunk (as this is where the shape is interesting).
