@AnthonyElsetinow This video is very useful, thank you for sharing, I'm from the Northern Piedmont region of NC and have had a few questions that i have yet to find answers to on the internet or from local farmers, maybe you can help me. I have one great pear tree, and would like to have 2 more of these trees, and i wish to get them by grafting and i was wondering, could i graft a scion of this pear tree to lets say the stock of an oak or a maple tree, or any other native tree to my region?

[DaveWilsonTrees]

@Samuel12v No, the would have to go on a pear rootstock.

One of your response comments got my attention, can you graft oak trees together, say to have an all-in-one oak tree with say 10 different types of oak? Also how about leyland cypresses, say a gold on an emerald?

[Samuel12v]

thank you so much

Wow, amazing growth in 5 months. How do you graft in humid tropics? There is no dormant/winter season?

@ec123456789able it is the best to graft apple on apple rootstock... on peach rootstock you can also graft plum, apricot, nectarine, some hybrids...
