An update and another friendly reminder: learn to bud! I “resurrected” this graft by salvaging a couple of dormant buds from the new growth from the broken pear scion and t-budding them right back onto the same callery stock. Both took, and after a few weeks I forced the topmost, which grew a couple of feet before the season ended.
Two great t-budding tutorials:
I did a number of other t-buds last summer with a high success rate. Not hard to learn, and a very useful skill to have.
