Grafting or graftage[1] is a horticultural technique whereby tissues of plants are joined so as to continue their growth together. The upper part of the combined plant is called the scion (/ ˈsaɪən /) while the lower part is called the rootstock. The success of this joining requires that the vascular tissues grow together.
Grafting is a technique that joins two plants into one. In general, a wound is created on one of the plants, and the other is inserted into that wound so each plant's tissues can grow together. The wound needs to be protected until it heals to avoid pests and diseases entering the graft.
Graft, in horticulture, the act of placing a portion of one plant, such as a bud or scion, into or on a stem, root, or branch of another plant (the stock) in such a way that a union will be formed and the partners will continue to grow. Grafting is an important form of plant propagation.
Grafting is the act of manually forming a union between two similar plants, often with the goal of making a new one with the best characteristics of the parent plants. You most often hear of this being done with fruit trees, but it’s a handy method to reproduce a variety of shrubs, veggies, and trees.
Grafting is a horticultural practice in which a branch or bud of one plant is attached to another plant. Practically every commercially available fruit tree or rose bush has been grafted.
Grafting and budding are horticultural techniques used to join parts from two or more plants so that they appear to grow as a single plant. In grafting, the upper part (scion) of one plant grows on the root system (rootstock) of another plant. In the budding process, a bud is taken from one plant and grown on another.
Grafting is a technique that involves joining the tissues of two separate plants in such a way that they grow together and function as a single plant. It typically involves a scion (the upper part of the graft) and a rootstock (the lower part onto which the scion is grafted).
