Re: Improving roots via air layer
How have these layers done? Did they survive or are they in the big backyard in the sky?

Re: Improving roots via air layer
Gday Luke, the layer took off and running. I'll get some shots this arvo of its autumn colour. The parent plant....its didnt do so well after the severing, the leaves curls and browned around the edges, it kept on trying to put out new growth but it kept on wilting and dying off. So i guess time will tell, it has nice nebari tooLuke308 wrote:How have these layers done? Did they survive or are they in the big backyard in the sky?

Re: Improving roots via air layer
Matty i will tomorrow mate. Everything went well, the layer took off and running, but the parent plant wilted and dropped leaves just before winter, it seems alrite so it might of been shock from being separated and planted in the ground within a week.matty-j wrote:hey velvet any chance on a update?
