That's boss!

Thank you John for adding this comment also :) It’s always nice to hear other peoples success :) I just took cuttings from my Lemon Rosso tree (it gives red lemons omg) with this method now 👍🏻

I'm about to do the same with my peach tree , I've returned from Australia to new Zealand at my homestead after 15 years and the tree is just hanging in there , ready to go, it has produced the most best sweetest peaches I've ever known to exist I literally use to dream about them and pretty much gave up eating peaches all together while living in aus

That's amazing! Thank you for sharing!

I can’t wait to try this I have a Mandarin tree, I brought I back from deathbed door now producing well every year leaving for a new home soon so going to start my cuttings that’s for the tips

+Peter Wagenblass That is awesome! I am going to try it with a very old Valencia orange

Awesome blessing

Do you keep watering under the bag ?

Lucky! Thats so interesting how the humidity helps. I'm in California and the air is so dry lol I'm thinking of getting a humidifier for my indoor plants .

My mango tree branches also start rooting

Well then I guess you need to start sending me your orange trees that you grow! I did 11 and they've all failed. The next six I'm doing have a 50/50 mix of perlite and potting mix, but they don't seem to be doing too well either. It's almost like you have to have almost zero water or something I don't get it

Congratulations

Nice 👍

I think it might be a New Zealand accent or a kiwi in Australia 👍

That's definitely a New Zealand accent 😉

Yea Definitely! :D @@janeb3827

I have been eyeing a neighbours tree, it gives them SO many beautiful lemons every year, lol.

+Rob Backyard Gardenerr lol I did... i have 6 everbearing mulberry I was lucky enough to find near a budhist temple, also 6 peach cuttings, im about to find more trees for cut/jack!!! yaaaaa

my neighbor has a Buddha's Hand citroen tree, I took several cuttings which were given rooting hormone and are sitting in a cup of seaweed nutrient solution overnight before going into the soil and bags tomorrow. we shall see... Thanks.

You won't be alone

Oh jeez rob I bet you will. Make a new series lol

Awesome, thanks for sharing, stoked to hear there are so many lemon trees in the world helped by this vid :)

+Peter Brewer Thanks :)

Should the leafy potted cuttings be placed in shade or full sun?

@@johnpadden5425 shade!!

but not fully shady. The sun must not hit them directly. Their are vulnerable till they grow roots.

+Matthew Ashton Hey, seeds will always grow trees, but rarely ones that will fruit. Recommend buying a tree, or taking a cutting/clone :)

Update please-- how'd it go?

Story of my life mate :D

Awesome thanks for letting me know :D

6 out of 30, I guess that's pretty good for the desert haha :)

my brother Lead, just watched your vids on citrus also lol

Choice, Always happy to hear when its worked for someone. Might have to take some cuttings off our olive tree :)

Hello there, i'm in San Antonio TX zone 8B and grow many citrus. What part of TX are you in?

Yeah the two main orange trees grown are Valencia and navel and this is the only way to get them because navel and midknight Valencia oranges are seedless

@@miguelplascencia6093 The more common method would be to graft those varieties onto a hardy, vigorous rootstock, but this way is worth a try.

Hello Rob from Ontario Canada. I have heard it suggested in older textbooks that the Meyer Lemon may have originated as a naturally occurring hybrid between a lemon and orange. Certainly here in the colder, South Island of New Zealand, the Meyer lemon was the ONLY one sold in garden centres for decades, and was ALWAYS grafted onto "trifoliata" aka "trifolate orange" rootstock. With global warming, the Winter climate has changed markedly just in my lifetime and Nurseries (in this area) sometimes sell other than Meyer lemon trees now, however they were always considered the most cold tolerant of all the citrus. MEYER Lemon is considered to be one of the best citrus fruits for growing from cuttings as they do well on their own roots in many warmer/milder areas. Trfoliata is a deciduous member of a shrub family neighbouring the true citrus, native to inland central China, and is one of the few occasions where an evergreen top can be transplanted successfully on a deciduous bottom (another rare example is evergreen edible loquat onto quince rootstock). I know in Australia that a full blooded trifoliata gets crossed with a standard sweet orange (result sometimes called "citrange") , and the seeds from the resultant fruit are often used as rootstock for oranges and other citrus. Pure trifoliata has an equal sized three part leaf that is quite distinctive, different to all other oranges, lemons, limes etc. The Trifoliata-sweet orange cross has a 3 part leaf with a longer central part and 2 short side parts. Not sure if there's any pictures making this clear on the internet, but if growing citrus trees, it can be interesting seeing what "comes up" as often shoots come up from the rootstock. Normal gardening practice is to remove those shoots as they suck energy from the intended top part of the fruiting plant, but there may be occasions when "experimental" gardeners leave them to develop. Occasionally the top part of a citrus tree will die in an accident etc and it's interesting to see what re-sprouts from the base. Again, in Western Australia "sour orange" (aka "Seville Orange"?) is often used as a rootstock for lemons, limes and possibly old fashioned varieties of sour grapefruits. But I actually really enjoyed eating the few sour oranges I got given once and then spent 14 years growing some real curiosities from those seeds (cross-pollinated from a garden full of all sorts of citrus varieties). Alas all my plants were left behind and lost when I moved from Australia a decade ago. As a full blooded "trifoliata" is deciduous and comes from a cold Winter climate. It suggests that if ever you could source one, then cuttings of most deciduous things can be taken successfully of healthy hardwood during mid Winter, eg Apples, plums etc.
