Rosemary Air Layer

Post by fredman »

Hi Everyone. I have this Rosemary in a pot that I want to root prune and turn onto a bonsai. Being that they are notorious for not liking their roots tampered with, I decided to Air Layer it. Its been in the pot for about 6 yrs now. Its 1 inch at the base.
I want to share it here and hope to give lots of positive feedback about it in future.
Very exited to see the outcome. I used Ray's 'super' :worship: method.... :fc:

I have a golden rosemary, but I was going to use it on a landscape, being more of the Greco or Mediterranean theme than Asian. I'll leave it to the experts I am into living landscapes Penjing and Sui-seki. :( Get quicker results with smaller trees for beginners who haven't the years left in them to watch a bonsai develop. :( And when they grow too big, well they can be replaced and placed in another bonsai pot to feature it as an individual.

Best of luck with yours, keep us posted. :aussie:
