Grafting a Lime Tree:

Grafting lime trees is similar to grafting other citrus
trees. The T-budding method is commonly used for grafting
citrus varieties, including limes. Here’s a step-by-step guide:

  1. Select
    Your Materials:
    • Choose
      a healthy rootstock lime tree (the base tree) and a desired lime variety
      (the scion) that you want to graft.
    • Ensure
      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 lime tree.
    • Trim
      away any leaves from the bottom half of the cutting.
  4. Prepare
    the Scion:
    • Take
      a single bud from the desired lime 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 to use disease-free budwood for successful
grafting. Obtain budwood from reputable sources or programs that provide
disease-free citrus cuttings.

Creating a Multi-Grafted Tree:

A multi-grafted tree allows you to enjoy different fruit
varieties on a single tree. Here’s how you can create one:

  1. Choose
    Your Varieties:
    • Select
      compatible fruit varieties (e.g., lemon, orange, kumquat) that you want
      to graft onto the same tree.
    • Ensure
      they have similar growth habits and requirements.
  2. Grafting:
    • Follow
      the grafting technique (such as T-budding) for each variety.
    • Graft
      the different scions onto separate branches of the rootstock tree.
  3. Spacing:
    • Space
      the grafts evenly around the tree to allow for healthy growth.
    • Aim
      for a balanced appearance.
  4. Maintenance:
    • Prune
      regularly to maintain tree size and shape.
    • Water
      and fertilize according to the specific needs of each variety.

Creating a multi-grafted tree is a rewarding project that
combines the best of several fruit varieties. Enjoy your diverse harvest!
