Wouldn't it be cheaper and a whole lot less work just to buy a new one this Xmas season? I don't know why they sell them or people buy them due to them outgrowing their space eventually. I quit buying them for this reason alone.

Let us know how the grafting works out if you pursue it.

Easier, yes, but not cheaper, since I already own this tree! But really, I just have a sentimental attachment to this one. I even have the space for it to be 10 feet, the size isn't the problem, but it looks ridiculous now that almost all of the lower branches died. Like a pine palm tree.

I'll be sure to post if I do any work on it. Considering trying to graft on a couple lower branches instead of making the big cut, as a test.

They do come up from the bottom, we have had to cut ours down once because it was, quite frankly, ginormous and we couldn’t take it anymore lol.

I have never heard of this being done, but it is certainly possible that is just because it is not that common for people to grow them to this size. If you decide to attempt the graft, please update us on whether it worked or not!

Do you have any results from your Norfolk Pine Graft? You described the EXACT thing I have been needing to do to my 11' tall tree. I'm sentimental, and want to save it. Any advice is helpful. Thank you so much.

Yes, please. i would love to hear success! i have a tall one. it may reach the CAT5 wires. i hate to cut it down, but if i could shrink it by lopping and the grafting its top!
