Hi All
My cousin informed me there's a miniature Guava growing in the garden of their rented house - BIG MISTAKE!
I checked out the tree yesterday, just more that 1m tall, I offered to replace the tree with anything they want, plan was to dig the whole tree but the once-over convinced me otherwise.
There are suckers growing at the base some might be rooted, will go for those but obviously that's the long road.
The arrow-straight trunk is another reason why I don't want the whole tree, but there are some really nice branches that would be a great start if I could air layer it.
So what's the verdict - will an air layer work?
BTW, the leaves don't look like the miniature guava bonsai I've seen posted here, BUT my cousin informed me the owners wife used to cook jam from the little guavas!
Too cute for words, the tree is covered with little fruit!
Thanks
Gerhard
