JacobMHD Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Is there any disadvantages to grafted trees? We were looking for some trees for our yard this weekend and every tree is grafted. I know it's pretty common practice but are there things to look out for when buying grafted trees? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rip_Some_Lip Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 I saw some apple trees last year at a local greenhouse that grew 5 different kinds of apples. I almost bought a couple just for the novelty. It had the different braches grafted on from different apple types. I may get a couple this year.

Surface Tension Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Its common to graft trees so no.When buying any tree I'd look out for forks. Vertical branches yes, forks no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
