Someone gave me a redwood burl.  Now, how do I get it to grow?  Bury
the whole thing in dirt, leave the top exposed, or what?  Keep it
slightly or very damp?  What kind of light?  Any advice
about how to get it started and when it can be transplanted to the
yard will be appreciated.  (You never heard of a redwood burl, right?
It's one of the clump-like things that grow at the base of a redwood tree,
and, yes, there's room for a redwood in my yard, at least for the
rest of my life expectancy.)
