What has been the problem with the airlayering? I´m planning an airlayer this


spring on a basic A palmatum.

Pauline Muth told me the main problem is that it might take two years to root,
so the first winter you have to put it in a location which is cool enough to
support dormancy, but never goes below freezing. Do you have room in your
refrigerator?

Palmatum takes from spring to july to make roots 3 -4 montas if
teh work is well done , but Mr Miko Kitsune explained here to me last
july that colored leaves maples sometimes are more difficult to air
layer than green ones
