tree dilemma solved!

20 years ago

Thanks to Joe Real, my untamed four in one plum is now under control, and can boast of becoming a eight in one plum! Joe kindly trimmed the tree back and grafted on four more varieties. I gave it a try too, hope my graft takes, I'm sure Joe's will. I'm always impressed with the kindness and generosity of every Gardenwebber I've met!

Nice pictures. Draping a sheet behind the tree makes the grafts easy to see. Your graft will take and you will now have the confidence to do your own whenever the opportunity arises. Al
