- by semi-hardwood, hardwood secondary cuttings, in early summer. Apply IBA Quick Dip 1000 PPM. Use intermittent mist. Root in 4-6 weeks. Four weeks cold before warm treatment will stimulate rapid growth..
- by 'T', chip grafts, in autumn. 'T' budding requires active cambial division which causes the under- stock bark to slip. During dry springs and summers bench chip method is more successful.
