10x Lemon Plant Cuttings for Rooting and Propagation Grafting Citrus Fruit Tree

Sale is for 10x Dwarf Lemon tree branch cuttings (unknown variety but great taste, low number of seeds and quite large). I also sell the root stock, flying dragon. 

Grafting Lemon Cuttings:

Grafting is a technique used to combine different plant
parts (scion and rootstock) to create a single, healthy tree. Here’s a
step-by-step guide for grafting lemon trees using the T-bud method:

1. Select
   Your Materials:
• Choose
  a healthy rootstock lemon tree (the base tree) and a desired lemon
  variety (the scion) that you want to graft.
• Make
  sure both the rootstock and scion are actively growing during the
  grafting season.
2. Timing:
• Graft
  during a time when the bark is slipping (usually late spring or summer).
• If
  the bark isn’t slipping, consider using chip budding instead.
3. Prepare
   the Rootstock:
• Cut
  a small branch from the rootstock tree.
• Trim
  away any leaves from the bottom half of the cutting.
4. Prepare
   the Scion:
• Take
  a single bud from the desired lemon variety (the scion).
• Trim
  the scion to include the bud and a small portion of the bark.
5. T-Budding
   Technique:
• Make
  a T-shaped incision in the rootstock bark.
• Insert
  the scion bud into the T-cut, ensuring it fits snugly.
• Secure
  the bud with rubber bands or grafting tape.
6. Seal
   the Graft:
• Apply
  grafting wax or a similar sealant to protect the graft union.
• Keep
  the grafted area moist.
7. Care:
• Water
  the tree regularly.
• Monitor
  the graft union for signs of success (new growth).

Remember that using disease-free budwood is crucial for
successful grafting. Obtain budwood from reputable sources or programs
that provide disease-free citrus cuttings¹.

Creating a Multi-Fruit Tree:

A multi-fruit tree, also known as a “fruit salad tree,”
combines different fruit varieties on a single tree. Here’s how you can create
one:

1. Choose
   Your Varieties:
• Select
  fruit varieties that are compatible with each other and suitable for your
  climate.
• Consider
  factors like taste, ripening times, and intended use (fresh eating,
  canning, baking).
2. Planting:
• Find
  a sunny spot in your yard (at least 6 hours of sun per day).
• Space
  the trees 2-3 feet apart (trunk to trunk) to maximize variety within a
  small space.
• Aim
  the branches away from the centre of the grouping.
3. Cross-Pollination:
• Plant
  different varieties close together to encourage cross-pollination.
• Cross-pollination
  improves fruit production and quality.
4. Maintenance:
• Prune
  regularly to maintain tree size and shape.
• Water
  consistently (at least a gallon per week per tree).
• Fertilize
  according to the specific needs of each variety.

Creating a multi-fruit tree allows you to enjoy a diverse
harvest throughout the growing season. Happy grafting!
