Hello Friends,
I am new to air layering and need some advise/suggestions. Thanks in advance for this.
I am planning to air layer a few thick stems of Privet and Pyracantha Trees. The sections that I would like to make a bonsai of is somewhere in the middle where there are no leaves. I am really after the thicker sections of stem. . Just being too impatient.
So my question is
(a) Will the new leaves emerge on the stems if I harvested the stem with the newly formed roots but no leaves.
(b) Or should I instead cut the stems on top after the root has formed, let the leaves emerge and then harvest the stem with the newly formed roots & leaves.
(c) Any other advise.
Regards.
