I have tried working on nursery PVs but typically they are pruned for
landscape. I several grown from seed and from cuttings that are developing.
I am trying for shohin size. I gave a lot of seedlings away at the
Phoenix club. I wonder if any of them are still developing. I use pond baskets
to develop them.
I now work in Tucson and only get home on weekends, so I have developed
a way to keep them cool/warm depending on the season. Once the trees are
pots - small size- I place them in pond baskets on a base of 1/4" pumice and
then surround them with pumice. This keeps the roots cool/warm. I have
drip system for watering.
