A tree rooting enclosure apparatus comprising:
- a body comprising:
- a cylindrical body base,
- a pair of opposing end openings with edges exterior to the body;
- and
- a plurality of spindles longitudinally oriented with respect to the cylindrical body base and extending outward from the exterior edges of the pair of opposing end openings;
- wherein the tree rooting enclosure apparatus is comprised of two removably engageable halves, each half being an identical duplicate of the other;
- wherein each half is configured to mate with the other half when each respective half is inversely oriented with respect to the other half;
- and
- wherein both halves when engaged envelop at least a portion of a tree branch to propagate a rooting system.
