I had a Harvey lemon die this year (least cold hardy of my trees) but the flying dragon root stock is still alive and well. I figure I should use the root stock for something so I'm thinking of grafting a myers lemon on it. Can you graft trees this time of year? My citrus trees are all putting out new leaves right now and I have plenty of growing time left till it gets cold or should I wait till early spring and try to catch a myers lemon just as it starts making new buds?
As I understand it, you just use a small branch with new buds on it, cut a T in the root stock, put budded branch in hole, tape then once started cut off the root stock so the graft takes over. That about right??
Anyone one have an exotic citrus I can get a cutting from? LOL> I might look around and see if anyone has something more exciting than a myers lemon.
