Comments (3)How much of the foliage did you leave on your cuttings....and how big were those cuttings? And why did you put the cutting in water? Anyway, cuttings should probably be no more than 3 to 4 inches long with most of the foliage removed. Insert the stem 1/2-way into a moist medium and water well in order to ensure that the cuttings are snugged in tightly. Some would use a rooting hormone, as this plant has a bit of a reputation of being a bit difficult. Your rooting medium can be your gritty mix, or a perlite and peat mix, plain vermiculite, etc. Maintain the cutting in a warm, but not sunny location, and keep the medium moist but never soggy. It could take a couple of months for the cuttings to 'take'. Do NOT keep pulling on the cuttings to check the status of the roots (the action will break off any root hairs that may have developed). Rather, wait until you see some new growth on your cutting....See Moredoes anyone know what the problem is for the tree?

Comments (11)Great..Now that we know what they are, how do you rid of these horrible things..I saw this problem comming when my neighbors decided to let their yard be over run.. They gave up and let them win, until I stepped up to the plate to keep their yard up, and these things keep coming back.... They inched closer and closer to my manicured flower beds, and now I have them.. What works so I can get a head start next year? How do you kill weeds that have root feeders? Maybe Roundup? I hate chemicals..But if this the only way, I will use the stuff, even if it shortens my life..Arg Thanks so much......See MoreDoes anyone know if I'm going to end up with a huge problem?
Comments (1)Despite the common name, the host plant for cedar apple rust are actually junipers, with Juniperus virginiana, eastern red "cedar", the most common host. Not all junipers will produce a similar hospitable environment or host for the pathogen. If there are nearby plantings of these junipers then, yes, the disease will always be a potential issue, some years worse than others. I would see if the nursery owner will replant with another species of tree....See MorePatty W. zone 5a Illinois
