Dwarf Red Buckeye

19 years ago

Has anyone had success propagating heel cuttings of Dwarf Red Buckeye? I purchased a red buckeye last spring and something broke a small 6-8 inch side branch off over the winter right at the main stem. I found it on the ground when I was checking on it this week end so I brought it inside and scraped a bit of the bark off at the base to check for green. It was still green so I dipped it in rooting hormone and then put it in a container of moist soil and covered it with a plastic bag with holes in it. What are my chances of it rooting? Since it was under the snow it probably didn't dry out and there were several small areaas including the tip with buds starting to form. I haven't been able to find any info online with regards to propagation by cuttings of this particular tree.
