I just can't stop. Had to buy 3 more little trees to plant. Yaupon hollies. #trees #permies #grownostr.

So fun to plant new trees! Yaupon hollies look lovely. I have a growing tree wish list for my favorite nursery, which is taking orders in early December.
In the meantime, I'm obsessed with cuttings. Mulberry cuttings, fig cuttings, hackberry, guomi, and aronia cuttings...
I have no idea if my technique for rooting will work, and I won't find out until next spring!
Thats something i want to work on too. I've tried doing cuttings with mixed results, but i really want to get a good technique down. As expensive as trees have gotten, it will be a necessity for me.
Oh, and I got the variety called Pride of Houston, which puts on lots more berries than the regular variety.
Ever tried yaupon tea? I made some last year and it was dandy. Couldn’t notice the caffeine due to being a fairly caffeinated individual, but it tasted pretty dang good after toasting the leaves.
Yes I make yaupon tea sometimes. Its pretty interesting how you can roast the leaves to light, medium, or dark. Like coffee roasting. I enjoy it.😊
