Air Roots
Every one has read or done the straw or rolled up tubing for growing air roots. I came across a different technique the other day and wanted to share it with you guys.
The other day day I had to go to one of my jobs and ran across the project's arborist. He is doing a great job with the trees in the place and since most of the trees had to be relocated from one site to another now he has to make them look like they have been there forever. which means getting the airroots to grow. His techniques is sratching the bark where he wants the air roots and them he trains them down using burlap by the time they hit the ground the burlap has desintegrated. Here are some pics. |

this means shade may not be as important and I guess it may be worth a try.
