Abstract
Bigtooth or canyon maple, [Acer saccharum subsp. grandidentatum (syn. A. grandidentatum)], is of interest due to its potential use in low-water landscaping.
It is a difficult plant to propagate vegetatively and more efficient propagation may facilitate both the introduction and commercial production of new selections from the wild.
Bigtooth maple is known to propagate itself naturally by layering.
The objective of this study was to evaluate mound layering as a means of vegetatively propagating selected accessions of mature bigtooth maple trees.
