hallo,


there are many tamarisks in the area so i think they must like the
conditions. i would like to take a cutting of one.


questions
- a soft-wood or hardwood cutting?
- which time of year to do it in, now its end september, is this ok?
- can i stick it straight into soil where i want it to grow?
- will it grow fast: i need some privacy-cover

thanks to all

land very flat water-table high so anything that can take up groundwater
like my willow is a bonus!  i  have not seen very many around here and
they certainly do not appear to be invasive.  so yes, yes, i will be
having a tamarisk.  (i'd love to be able to afford to go see the grand
canyon and see your problem for myself!)


thanks
