Hey Joanne

If the leaves are growing right where your Rowan was then it makes sense that they would be growing from a sucker of Rowan, its something the trees do. The Rowan in my garden puts our all the leaflets from one leaf bud at the start of the season, and these enlarge (and the spaces between each leaflet enlarges) as the season progresses. Double check by going onto Google images and putting in “Rowan leaf bud”, lots of pics of early stage Rowan leaves come up so you can compare and contrast.

I cannot get a straight answer to this question anywhere on the internet. I want to know if the compound leaves of the Rowan tree ***START OUT*** as one leaf and then separate into leaflets. Why can’t I get an answer to this? I recently had to have my precious Rowan tree removed. It broke my heart. But there seems to be a baby tree starting beside where it was. This baby tree has the typical Rowan leaf/leaflets but there seem to be some leaves that have not pinnated (sp?). I am wondering if these leaves ARE going to separate into compound leaves. Can you answer this? Thanks for any help you can give. These other leaves COULD possibly be another type of tree starting to grow right beside the Rowan.

Always loved the Rowan tree. Recently bought three. Look forward to many years of pleasure from them. Your information has filled in many blanks in my knowledge. Well done, thank you

In reply to jeanie. Hi Jeanie, thanks for the kind comments. Yes, dark to light just makes things a lot simpler, you need to hold much less information about what you're looking at in your head at any one given point. Give it a go? It certainly isn't for everyone, but I do enjoy working this way. Thanks again for the comment. yorus Lizzie

I have never tried darks first. Now I’m enthused to give this method a try. I know we always are our own worst critics but you may have been a bit hard on yourself! They look splendid and you are an extremely good video teacher.
