Comparing its mini multi-petal flower (~5mm) to a large multi-petal flower (~20mm)

Decided to air-layer this mini multi-petal flower breed; after my bold decision, plan, cut the barks, applied root hormone powder and position the transparent containers.
Hope to have 5 of them in few weeks time.

Filled containers with mixed garden soil

Watered them and shall update their 

development soon.. so....stay tune..
