I think it may grow from cuttings. I found a lot by the side of the road that had rooted itself after being slashed and dropped to the ground. I've grabbed a few pieces and have them potted up. I'll keep you posted on whether it is successful or not.

Hi, I'm looking for any information on Bur Oak (Quercus Macrocarpa) coppicing. According to the USDA plants database, it doesn't coppice - http://plants.usda.gov/java/charProfile?symbol=QUMA2
Has anyone had experience coppicing this species? Its the only Oak that grows in my region (Manitoba). Jay Hayes, you seem to be quite knowledgeable. What say you?
