I have to apologize for the very bad out-of-focus photo. I have to get a new camera!

Anyway, in the foreground is a salvaged tip graft of a 'Puu Kahea' cutting that got very badly sunburned and was beginning to rot on the end. I temporarily grafted the three-inch tip onto a generic red plumeria branch that was the same diameter. I used a 45º angle cut and two straight pins to hold it in place, then wrapped it in green electrical tape. You can (barely) tell that it's just beginning to leaf out. I will later air layer this branch, maybe next season, and grow it on its own roots. For now, I'm just glad it's going to make it!

I think I'm going to start rooting some small generic yellow cuttings solely as rootstock for the occasional cutting that has to be grafted.
