In this video we will look at a proper technique for grafting Japanese maple trees. We will be taking scion from a garnet Japanese maple and grafting it to green Japanese maple rootstock.
I would like to add a note. If doing this in the summer you might have a higher success rate if you do not strip the leaf and petiole. Instead of the technique shown you can use your pruners to cut the leaf blades off but leave the petiole. I have seen it done both ways and both ways be successful. However, leaving on the petiole may lead to a higher take rate.
Tools used include the following:
Hand pruners
buddy tape
rubbing alcohol
paper towels
