As you said, it is half price


Indeed, just make sure that your purchase is very vigorous and healthy. If it's salvageable, get it, and nurse it for the rest of the year, and try some airlayers on some other material in the meanwhile. It sounds like you're very excited about this tree, so getting some practice in to get it right the first time might help. My first half dozen airlayers were rather disastrous, wrong time of year, and errors in the actual procedure.

Good luck though, perhaps you can post a picture odf the area you're going to layer.
Thanks,
Dane
