Nice job on that, Pete. Was it easier to airlayer than it is to root?

it wasn't hard to airlayer. but for whatever reason, it took much longer to get to the point where i would like to take it off the tree. i don't do airlayer too often. only did 4 or so in last 3 yrs. very first one died within few weeks, hence the reason for keeping it with me for a month to make sure this one lives.

the tree came to me as rooted cutting from a very generous forum member, so.. not sure if this variety is hard to root or not.
