๐ŸŒฟ Air Layering (Marcotting) โ€“ One of Our Favourite Ways to Propagate Plants

If you've ever wished you could have another tree that's exactly like the one you already have, air layering (or marcotting) is a great method to try.

Unlike growing from seeds, the new plant is an exact clone of the parent tree. Better still, it usually grows and fruits much sooner.

Here's the basic process:
๐ŸŒฑ Choose a healthy branch about the thickness of a pencil or thumb.

โœ‚๏ธ Remove a 2โ€“3 cm ring of bark and gently scrape away the green layer underneath.

๐ŸŒฟ Apply rooting hormone if you have it, then wrap the exposed area with moist sphagnum moss or coco peat. In our case, we just use aloe and soil.

๐ŸŽ Cover it with plastic and secure both ends tightly to keep the moisture in. Some gardeners also wrap it with aluminium foil to protect it from the sun.

โณ Then comes the hardest part... waiting! Depending on the plant, roots usually start forming within 4โ€“12 weeks.

๐Ÿชด Once you see plenty of healthy roots, simply cut the branch below the rooted section and pot it up. Keep it in a shaded spot for the first few weeks while it settles in.

Air layering is a rewarding way to multiply favourite fruit trees and ornamental plants. There's something satisfying about watching roots develop before your eyes, and knowing you've given a branch a brand-new life.

๐ŸŒฟ Have you tried air layering before? We'd love to hear which plants have worked best for you!

Nasi Lemuni is a traditional dish from northern Malaysia made with fresh lemuni (Vitex trifolia) leaves. The herbal extract gives the rice its distinctive greyish-green hue and a gentle, earthy flavour with a subtle hint of bitterness. Cooked with coconut milk and fragrant spices, it's a comforting meal that's both aromatic and wholesome.

Ingredients:
For the lemuni extract
1 handful fresh lemuni leaves
1 cup water

For the rice:
4 cups rice (Basmati or regular white rice), rinsed
1 cup thick coconut milk (santan)
About 3 cups water (adjust according to your rice variety)
2-inch piece ginger, lightly crushed or sliced
5 shallots, thinly sliced
2โ€“3 pandan leaves, tied into knots
1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
1 cinnamon stick
2 star anise
3 cloves
1 tablespoon cooking oil

Method:
Prepare the herbal juice
Blend the lemuni leaves with 1 cup of water until smooth. Strain to obtain the concentrated green liquid.

Add everything to the rice cooker
Place the rinsed rice into the rice cooker. Pour in the lemuni extract, coconut milk, and water.

Season the rice
Add the ginger, shallots, pandan leaves, cinnamon, star anise, cloves, salt, and cooking oil. Give everything a gentle stir.

Cook:
Start the rice cooker and allow the rice to cook as usual.

Finish and serve:
Once done, let the rice rest for 10โ€“15 minutes before fluffing gently with a fork. Serve warm with your favourite side dishes.
