Early this year, I took 2 trident maple root cuttings (2"-3" diameter). For about 6 months I saw it build some callus at the cut but no foliage growth. I investigated one 2 months ago and noticed lots of new healthy root growth all over and decided to leave it a bit longer.
Two weeks ago, I decided to abort both experiment. Both have tons of root growth but not a sign of leaves or bud. I believe this is one of the normal trees that do not grow leaves unless from the regular internode.
The callus building intrigued me though as well as the root growth. They were planted on 1 gallon pots and some roots reached the drain hole attempting to escape! Could all those be from stored energy? Looking back, I should have snapped a few pics.
