Но не все могут себе это позволить, это бюрократия
Обычные садоводы из разных стран меняются черенками на свой страх и риск! Честь и хвала им!

I frequently graft mulberries when the top dies and only the rootstock thrives. I use a simple splice graft on about a pencil sized sucker and do two or three grafts on the largest suckers coming from the ground. At worst only one will take, but the average is probably 70% success rate. I do so at first signs of growth. The only variety I’ve used is Illinois Everbearing. It seems to be the best cold weather mulberry.

It is settled. I will cut the tree down and graft to a root stock sucker in the spring. (If I can find scion).
Does anyone want shangri-la scions?

Sounds weird, but in Russian one of the mulberry plant names is the same word as for “here”
Тут (toot) means “mulberry” and also means “here”.

Good plan. I graft to suckers on my large trees after I cut it back to 2-3ft tall. I noticed if the trunk diameter is larger than about 3" then top grafting the cut tree doesn’t heal as nice and the graft will not fuse into one smooth trunk after it heals in a few years. I’m cutting down 5 large trees myself (trunk diameter of 5"-10").

When you are ready to graft the new variety, you can send me a message and I might be able to help you out.

Доброго дня. Цікаво було придбати саджанці чи черенки. Як із вами звязатися?
