1- Methods of grafting and budding
Methods of grafting can be classified under four headings, depending on the
type of grafting material used and its position on the stock plant:
• Grafting with scions, which used pieces of stem joined to the
stock by
□ cleft (wedge) grafting, or
□ whip or tongue grafting;
• Budding (bud grafting) used buds as propagating material;
• Approach grafting when two rooted plants are united. When the
graft has taken, the plants are separated.
The choice of a grafting method depends on the plant species, on the gardener’s
personal experience and on the diameters of the material. If you cannot get detailed
information, it is best to try several methods and see which one is the most successful.
2- Grafting tools
Only a few tools and some simple materials are needed for grafting:
• A knife with a very sharp cutting blade;
• Lengths of pliable binding material (string, or plastic tape);
• A little birdlime, resin or a recommended form of wax for
sealing, if you use binding material made of twine;
• A pair of secateurs, useful for cutting scions from branches
and for topping stock
