Default Re: Rooting hardwood cuttings

Thanks Harvey,
I thought there may some relationship between the Inspector and Richard, because he was sniffing around, while Richard was preparing the rooting media and chamber for the cuttings. But I guess everything is on the up and up. (LOL)

So, those cuttings may be from as far back as December? They must be in dormancy then, and refrigerated? I was hoping to get an idea how long the cuttings would last if they were air shipped from Thailand, for example. What preparations would be needed to be reasonably assured of their viability for as much as a week, say? Or, even for three days? Would putting the base of the cuttings in those test tube-like vessel, that single flower stems are put in, with water, improve the chances of survival?

Thanks again.
