I pruned some errant branches off my Illinois Everbearing and Wellington,
back in January, cut 'em into 8-9 inch lengths, and shoved 'em into the
ground in the nursery area, with 2 or 3 buds above ground. Some look dead
now, but others are beginning to unfurl buds. I'll just leave 'em and see
what happens this summer.
I've attempted to hold Nov-collected cuttings of my Pakistan
mulberry(planted with graft union below ground level - it kills back to the
ground every winter) in the refrigerator over the winter, and root in a
pot, indoors, with bottom heat(it's sitting on top of the chest-type
freezer in the kitchen/dining room), but they either mold if I put a clear
plastic humidity chamber over them or dessicate & die if I don't.
