Grafting is a time-honored method of propagation that involves inserting
a piece of one plant into another in such a way that the two parts become
one and a new tree or plant is created. Grafting can also be used
to repair and to strengthen injured or weak trees, to introduce male or
female flowers onto a plant, or to create plants that consist of several
different varieties.
For a graft to succeed, most often, one can only
use plants that are botanically related, but sometimes it is possible (and
preferable) to introduce a plant of one genera to another, such as in the
case of pears on quince rootstock. Several different methods are
used and are not as complicated as one might think.
Our rootstocks are either certified virus indexed
(CVI) or VT virus tested (except for apple and pear seedling rootstocks,
which are considered inherently free of seed transmitted dieases), and
are chosen for their strength and vitality. They are shipped as 3/8in.
trunk diameter trees, except where indicated. Minimum quantity order
for rootstocks is 50 per variety and must be purchased in multiples of
50.
