Fruit & Orchards

Grafting Schedule

9 years ago

I'm hoping for some input on the best timing for grafting assorted fruits. Here is what I have put together so far...

Pomes - Later winter to leafing out. When buds to start to swell is ideal.
Stones - Wait until a stretch of warm weather (in the '70's) is in the forecast after trees start to grow.
PawPaw - After vegetative growth begins.
Persimmon - When rootstock is fully leafed out.

Thanks!

Sounds good. Pomes can bench graft in late winter. Bark, W&T, or Wedge graft when leafed out.

If it was in your interest to do so, by the time that new paw paw shoots have fully developed buds in July/August, they can be clipped off and grafted to other trees. Same with pears.
