2019 Grafting Thread

Last years pear grafts, mainly. Potted this year so including them:

3-flap aka Banana Graft heartnut on wild B.walnut

Grandview 2 black walnut on a short 2 meter tree I’m using to push scionwood:

Remarkable and two to prove how hardy ‘Mikkusa’ aka JT-02 persimmon really is. @tonyOmahaz5 knows but may not know it probably got to -30 F / -34 C during America’s polar vortex of 2019. 20 miles to the north of me is an airport that reported -30 F / -34 C. Buds opening all the way up 1/2 meter of last year’s growth:

Mikkusa / JT-02 hybrid persimmon

American persimmon grafts. Ones on the left growing while grafted only days apart, ones on the right are not. Having so many plants (which I do) means I need to use shadier than sunnier areas as well as my greenhouse which is warmer so in that nutshell plants end up in full sun but were on differing pathways to how they got there:
