    ground air layer

    Pretty straight forward. I removed an area of the bark just above the base. I placed a disk around the trunk just below the top cut and I also applied Clonex gel to the top cut. The soil mix I use for nursery stock is 70% coco coir and 30% perlite. Then I just let the tree grow wild all of...

    ground air layer

    This is why I like to ground air layer my nursery stock. This is a Yuri Hime Japanese maple that I purchased last May with a pencil size thick trunk that I then did a ground air layer on. After just one year I now have the beginning of a nice shallow, flat, 360 degree radial nebari.

    I was smart enough to contact Sara Rayner over a month go and picked out a pot that she put my name on and brought to the shows. From previous years I know her pots tend to disappear QUICKLY.

    Acer rubrum Progression

    I'll be curious to see how small the next set of leaves are after the full defoliation. I have 24 acer rubrum that I've been growing out from cuttings for the past 5-6 years. Mostly concentrating on a flat, shallow, radial nebari and thickening the trunk. It will still be a few years before I...
