Comments (3)So all that's left of the tree is a trunk with no branches?Weird. If by chance your cutting doesn't grow and there are new branches and shoots coming out of the tree,there may be a way to duplicate. Someone on the Fruit and Orchard forum wanted to propagate Peach and Nectarine cuttings and wasn't having any success.A guy,Alcedo,answered and posted his method,that looks promising. I'm including a link.Scroll down and he includes a link to steps with photos. If attempted,try for a shoot higher up above the graft and not some sucker coming out near the ground,it probably won't be the same variety as the top.

Comments (13)I have only air layered mulberries, figs, and pomegranates, but I will offer an uneducated opinion on paw paw air layering potential. Since paw paw's new shoots have such super thin "skin", I won't even call it" bark". I think that to air layer a new shoot with the very fragile skin would just result in fungi/bacteria quickly eating up the skin and killing the shoot. On the other hand, older paw paw sticks that do not grow much and have grayish bark that is almost strong would be the only place that I might try air layering. However, instead of cutting out a complete ring of bark around the stick, I would probably follow the example of a guy who only uses a potato peeler to shave fig bark to a shallow depth when air layering figs rather than cutting out a complete bark ring. Just guessing....See MoreRootstock-Apricots, Plums, Pluots, Peaches and Nectarines Grown in NC
Comments (7)Thanks everyone. Gary and Rphcfb- I am taking your advise and reading up on growing fruit trees and will purchase for planting late Fall/winter. I have gone on some nursery websites and some are already taking Fall orders! Garybeaumont:. Thank you for telling me about Vaughn and Isons. Even doing extensive online searches doesn't bring much up in our areas. A search did bring up Willis, but they don't list root stock and when I emailed them about it, their response was " you can grow anything we can grow". They provided zero info. It seems that They couldn't care less. Vaughn does list root stocks, but I didn't see root stocks listed on Isons, so do you take a leap of faith and order anyway based on their location and good reputation? The loud:. Where did you purchase your fruit trees? The Spring Satin (I would love to grow a plumcot) and Ruby Queen? Also, I don't know much, but I don't think you want the scion and the rootstock to root. The scion is chosen for its desirable fruit and the rootstock for soil, water, drought, disease and insect resistance. The root stock may not produce desirable fruit (that's what I have read) and they compete with each other for nutrients, etc.. Maybe someone with more knowledge can jump in here. If anyone else has nurseries to add, please do! I am still looking for a nursery that offers pluots and plumcots that will grow in the SE....See MoreBradybb WA-Zone8
