Grafting citrus trees doesn't have to be difficult. Watch as Hershell from Madison Citrus Nursery demonstrates how we graft our citrus trees in the greenhouse. The process is easier than you think but imagine having to do it right a few hundred times in a row!

This is very valuable info Hershall! I was missing this nugget of info. Modified side vaneer graft. I wasn't having any luck with cleft grafting. Thanks for posting!

Often times the simplest effect solution is the best one. Thank you.

no one ever explains what to look for when finding a scion. What part of the tree do I cut to make a scion? What do I look for? I'm trying to graft my dads naval orange tree onto a new tree. His trees is over 50 years old and puts out great OJ. I sold the house and want to clone it.

Young buds but not tip end buds. If the limb will bend but not snap it’s too young. Good luck!

What if the root stock has multiple branches?

@madisoncitrusnursery 2 ай бұрын

I saw your other question but wanted to answer here as well. We would recommend snipping the others and just graft 1 main trunk.

@madisoncitrusnursery 28 күн бұрын

Multiple grafts can work, we used to offer cocktail trees with 4-5 varieties grafted to the main trunk. The issue comes where you may have to go back and replace any that do not take and you have to constantly prune and trim to try to keep all of the varieties balanced and not taking over the tree. People tend to want a lemon, a lime, an orange, a grapefruit and a kumquat type setup and it is a nightmare to try to deal with if you arent experienced and its still a pain if you are experienced.

Just got a few citrus tree from a nursery. Not gonna mention its name so it won’t be bad for this nursery. First time dealing with grafter trees. Can’t figure out how it works. I always thought that grafting trees for sale is basically cutting off the whole rootstock plant a few inches from where root starts and grafting a whole plant or a branch to this stump and the desired tree grows on that rootstock root. When I finally received the plant it looked like to my uneducated eye that it has multiple scion graftings and BOTH original rootstock plant AND grafted plant branches are growing. The nursery is not really helpful to explain on this matter. I don’t want an original rootstock fruits growing. I want the name I bought growing. How do I make sure I don’t grow that rootstock anywhere on the plant? And how to ID it all.

That is honestly going to be a tough one to answer without seeing the tree, however. IF what you said is true, then hopefully the rootstock was a trifoliate and you would be able to remove any growth that shows up with trifoliate (three leaves). That would really be the best case scenario if what you described is true. I cant speak to how other nurseries graft, we personally do not graft that way unless we were doing citrus cocktail trees with multiple varieties on one rootstock.

@@madisoncitrusnursery can I mention the nursery name? May be it’ll give you an idea? The grafter plant is Meyer lemon, the rootstock, as they claim is a citron. My question basically is how to ID Meyer and citron, to remove citron branches. And, thanks you very much for a respond!!! Thank you very very much! I was dreaming about a Meyer lemon for years, now, when I finally able to get one, I’m confused about it :(

Honestly, knowing the nursery would not change the answer I gave so theres no need to mention them. I would continue asking them for advice or if you think you have identified the grafts, maybe you could mark them with a paint pen or plant tags and then remove the rest of the branches that grow out of the rootstock. Beyond that we unfortunately arent going to be able to help. The good news is you got your dream Meyer Lemon, you just may have to work a little harder than most for it. Good luck!

@@madisoncitrusnursery let me ask you the last question. What’s YOUR technique? If I order from you, will I have to look for a rootstock grows or it’s going to be 100% grafter growing? I know it’s a very ignorant question, but since I have no experience with grafting, it’s valid for me to;)

@madisoncitrusnursery 2 ай бұрын

This video shows our technique kzfaq.info/get/bejne/e8Vim8WSvs6ce4k.htmlsi=xmq2VGs_K_ppuQY7 We use trifoliate rootstock so anything that may grow below the graft will have 3 leaves and be easily distinguishable so it can be removed. I hope it helps!

The only part I wanted to know is when you cut the main branch....

@madisoncitrusnursery Жыл бұрын

The main stem of the rootstock is cut after the graft has successfully taken and begun to grow.
