Bay Trees
(gmt) wrote in :
I tried cuttings, with rooting hormone and without,
in sharp sand plus compost, in potting compost
and simply stuck into the pots of other plants
(my favourite method). No luck. I tried layering
(not easy but with a sunken patio I could peg the bay
out on the soil of the level above). No luck. I tried
air layering - moss, plastic bags the full works. No
luck.
I have a very junior bay tree that was grown from a cutting...
It was done with rooting hormone powder....
It took an incredibly long time to show signs of growth....And even now its
VERY SLOW....
Perhaps its a case of WHERE you cut as much as when you cut?
