Why is life SO busy, we are retired... Seems I seldom have time for anything anymore... Thank goodness for the internet (I think!).
I have wanted to plant trees up here in this desert climate, but (1)-trees are SO expensive and (2)-we are retired! So I found some websites (trust worthy) that tell how to propagate trees. This starts with small saplings, I am rooting them myself, but excited about the results!
Some of these trees, and I am assuming this will work, will take longer to "grow up" than I have life left, but thats okay! Again assuming it works, I will have many trees! I started with some "not so drought resistant" trees, but will go on to more evergreens and such. Besides, just how
many trees ARE drought resistant???!
So this is what my first attempt looks like:
These are all Globe Willows, or Umbrella Willows. If this works, several of us will have new trees, Baby Trees!! One note - One of the twigs I rooted upside down, wonder if it will grow?? And if all of them die, I will try again.
I don't know what the above trees are, I cut them off my daughters trees in Denver, she said she would find out what they were.
So watch for future news on my little treelets!
