airlayering my Ulmus Procera

Finally decided to airlayer my Ulmus Procera. Hope to see results in late winter next year, and put it some time in the ground again or in a wider trainingpot.

The plastic pot I used has the bottom cut out of it entirely. It is filled about half way up and covered with a bit of moss. Because of the higher edges of the pot, the sun cannot dry it out quickly and once in leaf the surface will be mostly shaded.

Mixture: vermiculite at least 80% (this does not rot and does not attract bugs/fungi), mixed with coarse lava sand and just a tiny bit of cocopeat.
