Grafted Apple, Pear & Peach trees

Today I grafted onto my little apple tree. If they all take then I will have nine varieties!

Grafted 'Hawaii' onto 'Gala's' branch & 'Gravenstein' onto 'Fuji's' branch.

 

Grafted 'Winter Banana' & 'Red Delicious' onto 'Granny Smith's' branch.
Grafted Mutsu directly to the stump on the M111 rootstock.

Grafting Pear scions

Today I grafted Warren, Anjou, Comice and Seckel onto my Bartlett Pear tree.

The bark was slipping very nicely and the tree was starting to push growth. However, my grafting wasn't that great, so now I'm worried if they'll take. Oh well, time will tell.

Soon, I'll be grafting onto my apple tree.

Citrus Grafting

Saturday, Feb 9th, I went to another California Rare Fruit Growers (CFRG) meeting in San Jose. I learned about "balancing multi-grafted fruit trees" and bought some citrus budwood for grafting. The budwood I got are: 'Seedless Kishu', 'Cara Cara Pink', 'Midknight', 'Sanguinelli' and 'Bream Tarocco'.
I grafted them onto my 'Washington Navel' orange but I had a tough time matching the grafts. So I might have bollocked it all and effectively mangled my little tree.

I grafted 'Seedless Kishu' onto my 'Dancy' mandarin tree.

Big wild mushroom growing in my light-well. There is another one starting to poke out.
