[IBC] Pomegranate air layer
I have a tall, gawky, scarred Pomegranate (supposedly a nana from
a workshop, but I have my doubts). I'd like to air layer, as the top 8-inches of the trunk and the top are much more attractive. My question: If I do air layer this spring, can I expect sprouting from the bare trunk that's left over? It is a three-trunk tree, with the tall one being very dominant.

[IBC] Pomegranate air layer
I haven't layered a P. granatum nana but the full sized
P.granatum has sprouted like crazy every time I layer it. I doubt that the smaller variety would respond any different. Then, by golly, I think I'll do it! Thanks, Kevin.

Especially in your climate in Florida (which I assume is warm and does not see snow or seriously cold weather). One of my cuttings missed its water 2 weeks ago. It was pretty thin (pencil thick) and short, with all branches being really thin. All the leaves turned brown and the branches all died. Now (2-2.5 weeks later) it has 10cm long bright green shoots and looking lovely. Thank ghod! :+) Cheers, Heidi Aussie |
