Field note

highbush cranberry, Viburnum trilobum at six weeks into rooting

Oak Summit Nursery · Southern Manitoba

highbush cranberry, Viburnum trilobum at six weeks into rooting. I checked them for roots a few weeks ago, and in this batch about half were good and were potted up and the rest needed more time. Many plants root like this. Six weeks in the full batch rooted. On other years when I took the cuttings later they didn’t root as quickly, the juvenility is important if you want a rooting response. next year I’ll make sure to try nannyberry, Viburnum lentagowhich is probably similar since it’s closely related #propagation
