Not so promising Carpinus Betulus going for it

Guest Tue Feb 19, 2013 8:37 pm

Since march 2012 out of a hedge (about 20yo), 1 year in fullground.
Today repot in plastic container, and tried rootgrafting with 4 approach-grafts.
Late winter, early spring i'll add 2 threadgrafts too (seen in virtual as the 2 right branches).
Obviously a real project because i'm starting with less then good raw material.
Ideal for learning, its my first time grafting roots ever. Carving, i'll have fun too Smile

i'm keeping it protected from frost now

cheers
