Which fruit trees can peach trees be grafted with? how to carry out grafting?

Summary: peach trees can be grafted with which fruit trees, how to carry out grafting?

Peach is a kind of plant belonging to the genus Peach of Rosaceae. The most commonly used methods of propagation include seed propagation and grafting, cuttage and layering propagation. The most commonly used method is grafting propagation. Generally, the most commonly used rootstock for peach grafting is peach, and other fruit trees of the same family can also be selected. The most common ones are peach trees grafted with different varieties such as peach, nectarine and flat peach. What other fruit trees can peach trees be grafted, especially fruit trees of the same family?

Conditions for peach grafting other fruit trees.

Peach grafting generally selects fruit trees of the same family with a high success rate, because the genetic relationship of fruit trees belonging to the same family is relatively close, the affinity between rootstock and scion is strong, and there will be no rejection phenomenon. After grafting, the cambium has strong growth and nutrition supply ability, and the wound heals quickly. Peach trees can be used as rootstock or grafted ears during grafting. However, when peach trees are used as rootstocks, it is best to choose hickory trees, because hickory trees have strong environmental adaptability, are distributed throughout the country, and have vigorous root growth, strong resistance, but not waterlogging tolerance.

What other fruit trees can peach be grafted?

The conditions for peach grafting other fruit trees have been introduced above. Peach trees had better choose plants of the same genus for grafting, so other fruit trees that can be grafted mainly include plum, apricot, plum, cherry, etc. These fruit trees can be grafted with peach trees as rootstocks. The branches of which trees are successfully grafted as scions bear the fruits of that tree. For example, plums are grafted on peach trees as scions, so the grafted branches will bear plums and not peaches. Maybe the plums will still have a little peach flavor.

Technical points of peach grafting other fruit trees.

Grafting is the main propagation mode of peach trees, so grafting time, rootstock selection and management after grafting are the key points to be paid attention to. The selection of grafting time, peach trees generally in spring (March to April) or autumn (August to September) grafting, generally choose more grafting in spring. Spring grafting is suitable for branch grafting, generally choose 2-year-old seedlings, spring rootstock and scion sap has begun to flow, tree buds also began to sprout, climate conditions are more suitable, scion and rootstock vitality is strong, after grafting wounds can be very wide healing long cambium. Relatively speaking, the success rate will be higher.

Autumn grafting is suitable for bud grafting, selecting scions with full buds and rootstocks for healthy seedlings of one year. After grafting is completed, wrap the excuse with plastic film to isolate external germs, etc. Grafting generally chooses cloudy days and windless days to avoid grafting in rainy days, so as to avoid rainwater pouring into the interface, damaging rootstocks and scions, and affecting the grafting success rate.

The success rate of grafting other peach varieties with hickory as rootstock is relatively high, and the success rate of grafting other fruit trees is relatively low. However, there are reports of grafting multiple fruit trees on one tree, and the fruit bearing rate is not guaranteed.
