The great Seattle cold-hardy avocado trial

[swincher]

I actually asked Marc at Fruitwood how they do it awhile back and posted his answer in this thread:

Loquat propagation via cuttings

I asked Fruitwood Nursery how they go about rooting loquat cuttings, since they sell rooted plugs. Here was Marc’s answer, in case anyone else wants to try this method: We usually get at least 50% takes when we root them in our propagation greenhouse that has a light shade and sprinklers that go off 4 times a day for a short period. Nothing fancy. We do dip them in rooting hormone before sticking them into a 50/50% peat/perlite mix. Best, Marc
