Sam Van Aken, an artist and professor at Syracuse University, uses "chip grafting" to create trees that each bear 40 different varieties of stone fruits, or fruits with pits. The grafting process involves slicing a bit of a branch with a bud from a tree of one of the varieties and inserting it into a slit in a branch on the "working tree," then wrapping the wound with tape until it heals and the bud starts to grow into a new branch. Over several years he adds slices of branches from other varieties to the working tree. In the spring the "Tree of 40 Fruit" has blossoms in many hues of pink and purple, and in the summer it begins to bear the fruits in sequence-Van Aken says it's both a work of art and a time line of the varieties' blossoming and fruiting. He's created more than a dozen of the trees that have been planted at sites such as museums around the U.S., which he sees as a way to spread diversity on a small scale.

@Quetzalcoatl I’m honestly not sure if we’re watching the same video. He said it’s a tree made up of “different types of stone fruit, including peaches, plums, apricots, nectarines, cherries and almonds.” He said that he’s also using different varieties of the stone fruits, some of them are very rare. If he uses different varieties of each of these fruits he’s more than capable of getting 40 different varieties of each of the stone fruits. He grafted the branches on a number of different trees and makes a map of each of them. You can’t just have one tree alone. What if it dies?

I think he has to graft species that are genetically similar, in this case stone or pit fruit like apricots, plums, cherries, peaches, all of which have a single pit inside them. An apple has multiple seeds in its core so a completely different arrangement and thus too genetically different from a tree that grows fruits with pits. The graft would be rejected due to a too-vast genetic difference between an apricot and an apple. I think when it comes to citrus like lemons and oranges you can graft those together but you couldn't graft them onto a stone fruit tree without rejection. An apple seems genetically similar to a pear for example where the only difference seems to be the taste and the fruit shape, but look at the similarity of the seeds and the stalks and the fruit material between a pear and an apple. It's kind of surprising it works so well with trees considering when it comes to animals, a transplanted organ from another person is rejected by the immune system unless it's from a relative.

Sounds like a brilliant idea, specially for people who only have a small garden and want their own fruits. Traditionally you just have one tree and then whenever these fruits are ripe, you just have soooooo many of this type of fruit that you don't know what to do with it. But if each branch can bear a different type of fruits you don't have fruit spaced out over more time and much more variety for the same space. Maybe 40 is too much for a normal use, but 3 - 4 would sound great. Apples, cherries, plums and peaches or something like that. Really useful. You should think of making this into a business.

Don't go crazy! It's a common technique we use in Greece (and many more Mediterranean countries) with citrus family trees and Mulberry trees. Mulberry trees we usually graft them to stop making fruit as in most cases use the trees for the shade it provides (it's full foliage peaks mid-summer).

After stumbiling on this video a few years ago, I tried grafting different varieties of Asian pears. It really worked. I have 4 varieties on 1 tree; so much fruit production. Next step is try to thin out the fruit sets to yield large fruits. Even the squirrels are enjoying the fruits:)

@brandonstednitz8408 9 жыл бұрын

Amanda David I'm by no means an expert, but logically each type of fruit would bear seeds of that type of fruit, regardless of the starter specie the tree originated from prior to grafting. You can't make a new specie that, on it's own, produces 40 different types of fruit without actually modifying it's genome -- which I don't think we have figured out how to do even in our dizziest daydreams yet.

One of my moms properties once had what I can only describe as “apple vines”. Apple tree branches were grafted to a central system of some kind and the branches were attached lengthways along a 4-foot tall chain-link fence. There were 2 central systems and each had 4 different branches coming off of them. So there were 8 different varieties of apples that grew along a 20-foot long fence in the front yard :-P I’m not really sure how it was done because all the fruit trees I know, grow. And this was about 15-20 years old and all you did was prune it a little. The fence hasn’t needed to budge even half an inch for growth…
