Dogwoods

Does anyone have a source for red osier dogwood cuttings

 

[Sligh1]

If anyone willing to cut em…. Anytime u drive down interstate - u probably will see some. Or in road ditches anywhere as that’s where deer browse them the least & they able to survive. I’ve got some in ditches at my farm i could cut & send u.

How long must you protect them from browsing?

Cold Stream Farms is a good source for bare root.

If you are ever up in Minnesota you can have (acres) of them. I think we planted 3000 and they have naturally spread too.. all over the place.

Yes they do . They browse them a lot .

I have cut them up and left them in piles in the woods and they get eaten up .

As Skippy mentioned, the road departments use them for snow breaks along the interstate. They are along roads all over the state. Just keep an eye out and youll see plenty you can get cuttings from

Legal to cut from roadways?

I honestly do not know the answer to this question. But I would assume a quick conversation with the adjacent land owner would yield a yes to what your after

Do you find deer bed in that at all?

Do you find deer bed in that at all?

Yes they do and they nip it off (browse) on it . Pheasants like it as well.

I stabbed around 50-60 of them in the ground a couple years ago, didn’t have a single one make it. Not sure if it was bc of the deer or if they just didn’t take. Guessing I didn’t do something right haha

 

[Copenhagen Tob]

Hardwood was right about them being everywhere in Northern MN. I brought home a bunch and transplanted in my creek bank curious to see how they overwinter
