My winterberry stick from Xmas has grown leaves,does that mean it has roots?

[P0ppy8557]

And can I pot it up? If so how?

Not necessarily.

I wouldn’t pot it up until I can see roots coming out of the container it’s currently in

Look! I’ve wanted a winterberry for ages. Can’t find them anywhere.What should I do next?

It is the time of year to take hardwood cuttings, but these take a very long time to put down roots.

Apparetly you also need bottom heat for winterberry.

I would definitely give it a go though.

You can also grow them from seed

Critical point - like many hollies they’re dioecious - male and female flowers on separate plants. So you’ll need two of them
