Hello Hector Black

Knowing you have quite a bit of experience with honeylocust, I wanted to ask you if stooling is a viable method of propagation with honeylocust.  I have a couple Millwood honeylocust trees that should have been transplanted a few years ago.  Their current size is somewhat prohibitive for transplanting but I would like to propagate them either vegetatively or by seed.  

They are about five years old. I would consider grafting them as well.  From previous emails, it sounded like honeylocust were pretty particular about how/when they were grafted.  

On another note, I really do enjoy my eleagnus.  Up here in Green Bay Wisconsin z4/5, their invasiveness seems pretty limited.  There are Russian olives that do well but the autumn olive has only a minor presence in the local woodlands.   

Thanks,

Jim Elie
