Apple-Pear Grafted Tree 6 Years Later
HTML-код

- This is an update of my grafting 4 different pears and 1 apple onto a Cleveland Select flowering pear tree. Some say it can't be done, but is sure seems to be working for me 6 years now.

My tomatoes are a new phenomenal agricultural breakthough that allows tomato to grow just about anywhere. A mutation appeared in a cross I made while breeding tomatoes for heat tolerance. It should be a game-changer if I can partner and get the genetics protected and begin production en mass. It's much slower doing it all on my own.

Hell yes. Doing what they tell you you can't do. I remember that video. You had people in the comments saying it still isn't possible.
Yep. I remember. Pears are about to flower. Apple comes on a bit later.
but still I won't say they are fully compatible. there is a swelling on the graft union indicating some sort of restriction on the sap flow downwards.
You're a talented gardener. I want to do something like this one day.
Thank you!
wow when i was a kid i always asking this kind of questions to my grandppa why we cant graft apple on pear he was saying it is not possible .... you are amazing thank you for video!
Nice work. Very impressive.
Thank you very much!
Thats amazing. Its some kind of a Dream that I reproduce the Idea
It's been fun.
@C3Voyage To deal with the damaged trunk look up bridge grafting. You can take some of the original pear branches (2-3) and graft them over the scar. It can help it heal much faster and stronger. Good luck! Great video - I was looking to see if I could do exactly what you did. Thank you.
Beautiful, i also grafted pear on apple tree. I waiting for results
Nice! Let me know how it does for you.
I bought what turned out to be a pear root stock on a pear root stock that produces horrific shit pears of total wood. So this spring I have cut all the branches off except those I grafted apple cutting from two trees apparently different apple varieties onto it. Thicker cuts placed in wedges kept splitting the host branches and they got dry very quickly before I noticed, so I have replaced those with smaller cuttings. Just so cold here, budding is going very slow but of the 35 grafts, they seem to be alive. After 6 weeks any that were just getting too shriveled along the stems or the bud went from soft to brittle, flaky, and hard have been replaced. Just waiting now for first real spring to see, meaning nights are above freezing. Buds on some are leafy (tiny bundles not leafed out) and the other has turned from brown husk to purple petals still curled up into a bud. The two apples bud out totally different. We shall see in several more weeks.
Year two, apple scions that successfully grafted, all in bloom now with apple flowers on my pear. This is a pear root stock on pear root stock fiasco from Lowe's, producing inedible pears. Almost all the main trunk grafts did fine, most of the smaller side branches, lower branches did not. Just regrafted all of them bit earlier than I did last year, and tried drill grafting on main trunk this year.
This is great to see, there's real value in your follow up videos over the years to show the graft union and health of the apple branches on pear rootstock, very cool to see that it's a viable for at least these species / cultivars. An interesting note is that some taxonomists group the Malus and Pyrus genera together. Maybe graft compatibility in the Rosaceae family is underappreciated.
It may be. Were I interested in such a thing, my next steps would be to test and trial further with various rootstocks/scions. I learned a very long time ago not to fully trust the "science" or even word of another fully. Grain of salt. There's always something in the mix that may have been missed. Sometimes, we get in trouble simply following someone's opinion or "facts". I think this pandemic is very much a perfect example. I've seen lots of papers on tomato where they regurgitate the evidence of others and they're scientists. Since tomato is a passion of mine, I've made significant advancements in tomato where scientists have not been able to because of how I see and test things. Anyway, I appreciate the thoughtful comment!

@@manjichromagnon5480 you're like a russian bot right? there must be more targeted places to spam
@@C3Voyagehave you been able to graft to tomatoes onto a perennial plant??
@@RustyShakleford1 With vegetables, only pepper, eggplant, and tomato.
How can you increase the diameter of your trunk quickly? That seems to be what produces the most growth or fruit and store of nutrients
Please l have planted an apple and I want to know how it will be if I do not graft it
So whats the latest on this? I am experimenting with similar grafts and others as well. These ornamental pears are everywhere and are a great resource if you know what to do with them. From what I understand is some apple varieties are more compatible with pears than others like winter banana being quite compatible. As such they can be used as an interstem or other varieties. Is the tree still doing well?
Pears grafts are still going strong, but this year a frost killed off most I think. I need to look at it closer. The apple branch was girdled by a woodpecker. I believe that damage was shown in the last video. It died back. I'll try and get a video out on it this year.
@@C3Voyage if you try again you might consider winter banana apple as an interstem for other apples. It also works to go from apple to pear. Some pears are more compatible to callery/bradford than others and they can be used as an interstem for other pears. I have read old home works well for pears. I have a giant Russian red fleshed apple growing on pear rootstock, apple and ornamental crabapple. But 7-10 years is supposed to be the maximum lifespan for apple to pear or pear to apple if you don’t use an interstem so I think you did well. In any event getting 7 years of fruit out of it is a good thing considering it was an ornamental tree. I also have various Asian pears growing on an old Bradford pear. They are all growing fruit after the first year. It was starting to split like they sometimes do so I ran a threaded rod through it. It seems fine now.
@@cowboy399 Did you see all the holes in the apple branch for the 7-year update? I really believe that's woodpecker damage that killed it off unless you have another thought on all the holes on it. I have apples in the back orchard that don't have all the holes. Seems odd to me other than an invasion of a borers, on this one branch, that the woodpecker was after. Thanks for all the great advice. I now have it here for reference should I go grafting again.
Are the pears different to the original tree?/is this a new variety?
Yes, it was 4 cultivars grafted onto a flowering pear.
Sir you can go for approch grafting to save this tree...so go for that and save this .
Just wrap the trunk with burlap
Need more info. What does it do?
That brown rough texture on the skin looks like Russeting. It happens to apples a lot.
I thought it might be, but am not sure with fruit stuff. Anyway to prevent it so it looks more like it should?
Just because you "can" doesn't mean you "should" as clearly evidenced by all the issues that you experienced over the course of the video. This tree is *not healthy for multiple reasons*. You already lost grafts and the trunk has major cracks. 1:27 This tree clearly suffered from lack both summer pruning and winter pruning on an annual basis and is encouraging poor fruit tree management. There is no reason for those branches to be that tall. 2:17: winter is not the proper time to cut those trunks for size reduction of a neglected tree (in terms of annual pruning)-summer is the proper time to make those cuts. Overall your banch angles are too narrow and causing bark inclusion. Eventually those branches will break particularly if not pruned properly on an annual basis. 3:54 The fruit was not properly thinned. They need to be thinned 6 inches apart when marble sized.
FYI: Comice is pronounced (KŌ MEES')
You should troll the part of the Internet that cares what you have to say. You're negative comments show alot about what kind of person you are. You obviously are searching for apples and pears grafted or you wouldn't have found this video
@@StevenBCrosby EXACTLY. People are allowed to experiment and encourage others to try it!
