Greetings! I have posted my 2011 Bell Nursery Results that describe dormant cutting rooting results and selections from
Phase 3 families (P3) and Phase 2 (P2) clones. I expect to replant the selections in the 2012 nursery with at least 20
cuttings each. The 2011 growing season was very good with ample Spring moisture and Summer heat. I planted the
more standardized 6" cuttings instead of 4" and am pleased with the results.
It was interesting to watch the growth of the 4 rooted 1-0 83AA204 trees cut back to 3" root and shoots. Two of these
stools grew 12' in the nursery this year! See the 2011 Bell Nursery Photos for more details.
