Here is my personal devils club experience. The farm has had devils club growing here since who knows when. It grows in the thickest part of the woods, about 20' from the creek. Most patches are under trees but some are in the open. My dad eraticated most of it. I didn't take a look everywhere, but found one clump that was three main plants(trees?) very large. I took the smallest one and planted it under the doug fir by the house. It is just leafing out. Sorry for the crap pic, just ran out and took some pics.
I am confused about side branch cuttings. Look at the thing, not to many side branches! But the leaves do grow that way. Should I take a lateral leaf cutting? And what about doing root cuttings? It spreads thru its root system. Had to axe this one to seperate it from the other two left. And as you can tell it is doing fine.
