Tree of a thousand stars
 
Hi I have recently been taking cuttings from a healthy (tree of a thousand
stars )forgive me for not giving you the Latin name.
I have numerous cuttings and decided to try and grow one over a rock .Took
the well rooted cutting placed it over the rock covered it with a mass of
mud made up of peat and loam the roots were draped over the rock reaching
down to the pot below. which contained the soil that I usually use for
repotting.I covered the roots with Sphagnum Moss and covered the moss with
plastic film.(watered well )I was told to leave it for 12 months ,and just
to prune it .
This tree has shown no sign of dying just a few small leaves turning yellow
am I on the right track to grow a successful tree over rock?I do nor worry
if I loose this tree as the cutting that I have taken are vast
Pete
