Grafting - PEM BB gardening.iron.grafting

This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the PEM curriculum.  Completing this BB is part of getting the iron badge in Gardening.

Fruit trees can be grown from seed.  If the resulting fruit isn't tasty enough for your purposes you can always graft it over to a known variety.  Or maybe you have room for one type of plum but need a pollinator.  Grafting a twig onto that tree to make a "frankentree".  Let's get some practice with grafting!  





Here's a video on grafting:
