An extraordinary technique!
Why grafting? How does it work? What tools should I use? How to harvest grafts and choose the right rootstock? So many questions when you want to enjoy delicious fruit from your garden...
Grafting is an extraordinary technique that dates back 2,500 years, and allows you to quickly obtain fruit from your orchard. There's no need to wait for the tree to grow: all you need to do is plant the graft of the variety of your choice on a healthy rootstock that's already perfectly adapted to your garden, using a variety of techniques (crown grafting, split grafting, escutcheon grafting, etc.).
This way, you can safely reproduce your pear tree, which has become too old, by grafting it onto a young quince tree, improve the fruit in your orchard or even obtain several varieties from the same tree.
With step-by-step illustrations, let Alain Pontoppidan guide you as you learn and discover the incredible world of fruit grafting.
