Cheers isitangus,

Had a search for air layering a murraya but couldn't find anything in Google. How easy?

I have read some where tropical are hard to air layer? Anyone tried it?

Never tried to to layer, just have collected a few
I nhave an progression thread of mine hear, just do a search and you will find a few here.
The leaves at compound and do not reduce much, so suit a larger trée

Will see if I can today as the last photo was 3 years ago.

Here is a thread of me collecting 2 last year, you can see how hard they can be cut back.

Both of these had at some time in their past had soil boult up higher around the bases, and they had ground layered themselves.
given that, I think they will layer easily, but not sure about big cuttings tho.
