Detailed explanation-1: -To achieve this, wound and bury the stem (in the same way as with simple layering) between each node or bud. Good for plants that produce vine-like growth like grapes, wisteria, heart-leaf philodendron or pothos.
Detailed explanation-2: -Air layering is a method for inducing plant stems to produce roots above the ground. It is accomplished by first selecting a vigorously growing stem or branch. You then make a 1-to 2-inch cut along the stem about ¼ to ½ way through the stem about 12-to 15-from the tip.
Detailed explanation-3: -1) Tip layering: This is usually used in plants that have a trailing type of branches. It is very similar to simple layering. Examples of plants propagated by tip layering include purple and black raspberries, and trailing blackberries.
