Tim's vs my poplar tree cuttings

IMG_20141027_142415.jpg

The poplar cuttings that I got from Tim earlier in the year have done amazing, I took some from mine as soon as they arrived and planted them together. The difference is hard to believe, mine (right) have put on an average growth of 6 inches where as Tim's (left) cuttings have put on an average of  24 inches.

I will lift all of them later in the year when they loose all their leaves and plant them around the place to use as a screen / shelter belt and some for coppicing for firewood.

They really are super growing poplars Tim!
