Air-layering root pod

Root a new plant on the parent branch

Strip a ring of bark from a branch, slide two pods round it through their slots, tape them rim to rim and pack them with damp sphagnum moss: in six to ten weeks roots fill the pod and you cut off a new plant that is already rooted. Works for figs, citrus, rubber plants and roses.
