I am trying to fool momma nature also, but with different trees. I have a Zelkova cutting, and three magnolia cuttings that have already started to root. I might try bringing them into the house, and in December put them in a cold area for dormancy like Tony said.

I also took cuttings from a flowering purple leaf plum tree last month. A week after I took the cuttings I had new growth, but I have'nt checked for roots yet. Is it possible to get new growth without roots?
