@papa-pepper This is a great way to produce saplings. We regularly prepare saplings from branches of many trees including rose trees by cutting branches into pieces near nodes and sticking them in wet earth for a few days. Sugar cane also can be grown from a piece of sugar cane with this method. We have never tried it with just a bucket of water though. Will experiment. We always thought the branches May rot if we used only water. Your experience shows that it can be done. Thanks for sharing. I always like your blogs because they are all about nature. Upvoted.
