Here's a photo of the elderberry cuttings I did this year, on impulse and without knowing exactly what I was doing... I have given away 4 already, 6 more put out top growth but no roots, and I transplanted these 23 into tall treepots to develop stronger roots. Some will go in my yard, the rest will be traded or sold.

I wasn't successful with any of the other impromptu cuttings (beach plum, red and black currants, Nanking cherry) but it was probably too late in the year because they were already budding.
