[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3218687, member: 5412"] Your both correct. They are like a rhizome. If you cut the root, you make three trees. The original and two more from the cut root. Interestingly enough as a side note, Aspen tree groves in the mountains are basically one tree. They gather water when needed and if not needed, pass the excess to other trees in the grove that may need it. They are actually called the largest living organism in the world. [URL]https://www.livescience.com/63852-failing-aspen-clone-utah.html[/URL] What's also interesting is that in the link above ^^^ the problem with declining aspens is deer. They eat the new shoots preventing the expansion of the groves. The very same folks that are lamenting the decline of aspen groves make efforts to shut down hunting so they have an interesting conundrum to consider. Control the deer or lose the aspens. [/QUOTE]
