Air Layering Plants 



You have often wanted to propagate some plants of a 

 scarce or high priced variety but did not have the proper 

 facilities to do it with. With a new outfit we are offering, 

 you can do it yourself, as easily as making an old-fashioned 

 graft. You take a branch of the shrub or tree you wish to 

 graft, (leaving it on the parent plant) girdle the branch or 

 twig, put damp peat moss or damp sphagnum moss around 

 the girdled part and wrap it tightly with this new water- 

 proof plastic (in sheets) and tie it, top and bottom, with 

 rubber bands. Generally within six to eight weeks the twig 

 is rooted ready to pot. It requires no watering or other 

 attention until ready to pot. Complete outfit (enough plastic 

 sheets and rubber bands to make 100 grafts) with complete 

 instructions how to do the grafting, for $5.00 postpaid.
