Ronde de Bordeaux (5 gallon SIP) and Longue d'Aout (ground) air layers results. (please excuse the messy background)Started both on greenish wood exactly 7 weeks ago. LdA had a stronger root ball compared to RdB. Not sure due to variety or SIP vs Ground. RdB got droopy shortly after moving to 1 gallon pot. Removed all leaves except top 4 and it perked back up within 30 minutes. LdA transferred to 5 gallon SIP and never drooped. RdB LdA

Looks good Frank. The LDA looks like a more aggressive rooter.

You're right Tony. LdA is very strong in the ground. Thankfully, it loves the Virginia clay.
