In theory according books it is very easily done.. even cuttings root fast it can take 3-6 months I experienced with a maple that I start air layering in spring and was ready in september , started in november a second one ( bad season) and I just separarted in end of june Tiziano |
I have made stewartia cuttings, but I have never tried
an airlayer because I have heard that the bark is too thin and the process very delicate. I have two stewartia that I let go. There is a possible 5 tree grove if I can successfuly airlayer 3/4" stock. So is there anyone with direct stewartia experience?

Kits Hi the bark is teh bark if you curt it off properly and cut a little deeper cambium and apply sphagnum moss and rootone , it should work the season is the good one each experience is unique anyway THEO POST TENEBRAS LUX Mais c'est quoi la realité? http://groups.google.it/group/free.it.arte.bonsai http://www.easybonsai.altervista.org/ |
