Hello,
I recently purchased this cryptomeria japonica, from a local landscape nursery. It had gotten knocked over and had a good amount of damaged or broken branches, so I went through a cleared all dead or broken branches. It is a tall plant at almost 40" from the soil line. I am hoping to get a couple of air layers to not waste, my other though t was stripping the upper part of the tree and try to propagate the trimmings. Or perhaps I will do both.
So anyway I am looking for some advice on where to chop/air layer this tree at. Any virtual advice would be great. I am thinking a low chop some root work and into the ground, but we will see. The truck in mighty straight so I need to work on that for sure, if I keep it.
I am having trouble posting pics from the iPad so I will get some up soon.
