Gina. Thanks for the compliment.
I found out that plums are very easy to graft. Almost 100% in anyway you graft.
BUT never in the rain as you said. I learned something from you too.
I just graft apple pears to my Asian pear and in 4 days I saw new buds sprouting. I hope they will make it this winter. |

I just removed 3 Chandler pommelo fruits from EZ's Oros/Chandler pom graft thinking the nutrients will be drained by them instead of future clemenule fruits.And I have a few healthy good looking clemenule fruits hanging right now. And as I said before, once you taste a clemenule, you are hooked.

Here's some of my citrus grafted to my Eureka lemon. These were just experiments on my part. I was surprised that Eureka lemon can take so many varieties of citrus such as mandarins, oranges, pomellos and other lemons.

Unknown lemon. Just cut a short branch from my sister-in-laws house and they don't know what kind of lemon it is.
Can you see the graft union at the bottom side of the picture?

I am even surprised that when I came back from a 3 weeks vacation, my California Gold had started to give a flower in the middle of the winter
