I surprised myself. Last Spring, I attempted two approach grafts to fill in
some empty spaces on a long term JBP project, and they both took! I
unwrapped the grafts this morning and was surprised at how well they have
healed over in just the one year.
Questions-- (1) When do I cut off the part of the old branch that is below
the graft? Do I do it all at once or should I peal the bark off over a
period of time? (2) What kind of after-care do I give it to ensure a strong
connection at the trunk? (3) When is it safe to begin bending it down to a
more natural angle?
Thanks.
