Our nursery located at the edge of the Carolinian forest range in Southern
Ontario, Canada and specifically in the Niagara Region. My treeline
surrounding the perimeter of our property has quite a few Sassafras trees,
in our area, which would be the northern ranges of the tulip tree, but, how
do I propagate Sassafras???It will shoot (sometimes) freely from roots,
seeds dont seem to germinate freely, so help me out, with some practical
advise if anybody has some!
