Re: Crepe Murtle
Hi Ben Thomas , you certainly can layer them , my Crepe myrtle had multi layers set simultaneously and all survived .

Re: Crepe Murtle
Thanks Alpineart. Is now the correct time? It has just started to shoot new growth.

Re: Crepe Murtle
The old wives tale concerning Crepe Myrtle.
cut a branch off an throw it into the air as high as you can.
It will come back down with roots on it as they are that fast
Easy peasy to airlayer or grow from cuttings
