Yamina has some rare stuff . I have numerous plants from them in my garden. I have larch, American and Korean hornbeans, copper beeches all things I was told would die in summer up my way doing just fine. They also have some of the best collection of dwarf conifers and Japanese maples

So I thought I’d post an update...

I bought 3 x small ones of these.

One I potted up;

I took a heap of cuttings and found these things root and grow pretty rapidly.

Propagation trays;

Image

1 year old rooted cuttings;

Image

6 month old cuttings;

Image

I’m surprised at the success I’ve had - close to 85% strike rate.

The double dip method seems to yield the best results - dip the cutting into propagating gel then dip into rooting hormone powder.
