what would you do with this cutting?

Recommended Posts

Soo, I scored a really nice metre long cut of a bridge and it arrived today. It shows a bit of rib shifting towards the base, I'm hoping it does a bit more of that. Got a super good deal too, cost me $20 plus postage.

Anyway, it's putting out roots all the way along one side from the base right up to the tip.

My question to you all is what would you do with it? I was planning on putting it directly in my garden whole, then start taking a cut or two as it got established and put on more growth, but what happens to all those roots if they aren't in contact with the soil? Do they keep growing down looking for contact? Would you cut it into 2 or more pieces or leave it whole? Or lay it down like a log?

Interested to hear your opinions.

Do a combo, cut into three as quarterflesh suggested , plant two up right n one on its side, those roots wont matter either way the cuts will grow new ones.
