- Charles Malki, Biologist & Plant Expert from ivorganics.com/ discussing a grafting technique that can be used in the Spring, Summer & Fall (winter can also work for evergreen plants & trees). In this video, Charles Malki grafts a Hojiblanca onto a Manzanillo olive tree. The ultimate goal is to have three varieties of olives growing onto a single rootstock; (1) Manzanillo, (2) Hojiblanca, and (3) #3 Coming Soon! Any suggestions for good green table olives?

Impressive technique using the parent plant hosting the graft! I am sure this is why you have such a high success rate!
Thank you for the video & insights!
Thank you for the compliment Kevin Sowter! :-)

Mark is PHENOMENAL! Well done videos. Such great explanations and visuals. You get an A. 😊
I love the Italian Ascolana variety… huge, meaty olives.
Clear precise presentation. You have inspired me to "give it try"! Thank you.
Thank you Jackatsea for the compliment! Keep me posted on your gardening successes! :-)

Limited applicability. How often does one have two pots and want to graft between them?
I like each and every video you've made so far...
Thank you so much!!! :-)
Hi Charles! Thank you for an awesome video! Where are the follow up videos?
Great video, I'm going to give grafting a try with an avocado tree from my mothers house. Chuckled at the whispers of "stop talking!" I have kids so I know how it is.
Love your videos they are super informative. You inspired me to start growing the ice cream banana tree as well as 2 other varieties. Do you have any suggestions for growing mangos and apples in Florida? I moved from NH and I miss fresh apples and would love to grow them here. I heard pink lady grows in central FL but I'm skeptical.
At my parents' (south of France) we have three dozen multitrunk olive trees. I never knew they were cool. They grew from the rootstocks of the trees that froze in the winter of 1956.
God Bless you.awesome-keep it up
Hello Arshad,
Thank you for watching and you positive feedback! Very much appreciated!!!
Charles :)
Hello hello from Aegina island - Greece!! I love your videos!! Thank you so much! I wish I could find your product in Greece!! Let me know if you ever visit Aegina island!!
I am going to try and graft plum to a peach tree. Do you think it will take now seeing as how it's fall? I'm in South Georgia so a fairly warm climate. I also wanted to graft some crepe myrtle to get different color blooms.
awesome teaching, thanks
Thank you Dolores for watching & thank you so much for the compliment! :-)

Hi . Thank you From Jordan the middle eastern country for your very informative & evidence informed videos . I have a quick question on avocado tree bud and v-grafting . I have several avocado seedlings that I propagated from seeds and want to graft them but not sure which methods to use relative to season / time , noting we are in late spring here and weather is abundantly warm . Thanks in advance and accept my best wishes with a great day there .
I have a lychee tree that i planted 3 years ago. It was given to me by someone who grew it from seed. It was relatively large at the time he gave it to me, possibly 4 years old. I planted it in the ground and it has grown much since. After doing research and learning about lychees grown from seed take forever to flower i have come to the conclusion that i either need to remove it now and waste no more time with it or top work it. Would an approach graft work with a hat racked tree? What are your suggestions? Thank you for your time.
will this work with scion? and does this have to happen below a cut like you did?
So I have a question that I’m having a hard time finding the answer to. I live in Illinois in zone five where it gets over 100 with 98 percent humidity.
I’ve been buying two year old potted apple trees mostly red delicious. I cut all the leaves off and tried grafting five diff kinds of apple to each branch. The apple tree is still in a two gallon pot. Are my grafts no taking because it’s still in a pot? Does the tree have to be planted in ground for any of theses grafts to take? I’m having a hard time any info would be a great help. I have a grafting scissors and wax with tape. Tried many diff kinds of diff type of grafts technique spent over 500.00 and have had no luck.
Hey Charles how deep is the cut in the rootstock? Do you cut in wood or just the bark?
Thanks for you
Thank you for the compliment Mohamed! Charles :-)
Will this technique work with Lemon trees. I live in Pennsylvania and I have a 3 year old lemon tree that I grew from seed to be a recipient tree. I have a Meyer's Lemon tree and a Key Lime tree all in containers. I want to graft both onto the recipient tree. All the trees will come inside for the winter in the next few weeks. Will it work and is it too late in the season to attempt the grafts.
Charles, I have a question. I have a couple of lychee saplings grown from seeds. I know that seed planted trees take much longer to fruit. Can I graft off of a lychee sapling? Or will it also be inhibited because its not actually from a fruit bearing tree? TIA.
Iv organic ur reply germinate polyembryonic types if one's not gonna graft: not all of my ataulfo seedlings gave 2 or more trees so then are those still true to parents so I should keep them? Q2: but those with 2 or more trees, which one to keep? Thanks for all ur vids I love watching them.
OK thanks looking forward to see .the end result
Hello Mikey A,
I should have the update posted by next week! :-)
Charles
Informative and cute
Thank you! Charles :-)
Bro I done z grafting on lemon plant on 25 August 2019, after grafting in how many days lemon graft gives flowering and fruiting....?
I mean after how many days / weeks it will give flowering or fruiting...??
Is it possible to graft pomegranate with another pomegraanate variety?
Interesting! Never seen anyone use a damp paper towel before. You don't get any mold issues with it?
Your title says ‘Grafting Fruit Trees Any Time Of Year.’ Does this mean if I have scion wood left in my refrigerator I can graft in the heat of July, although it is recommend to perform grafting in early spring just before the buds of the rootstock tree are ready to open and the sap is flowing? Look forward to hearing from you.
are there any different fruit trees that can be grafted together...like peach and pear...or walnut and pecan...I know some nightshade like tomato and potato will work. thanks
Hello Williamlattin,
Yes, tomato and potato can be grafted successfully. When selecting plants and trees to graft, they should be in the same genus classification. For example, stone fruits are in the genus "prunus" and the following fruit trees can be grafted onto one another in this genus: cherries, nectarines, almonds, peaches, plums & apricots! Pears should be grafted with other pear varieties. Apples with other apple varieties. Etc..... I hope this helps! Keep me posted on your grafting projects! :-)
Charles
That would be great! Frankenstein fruit tree! All in one!
Will this technique work if I only have the scion wood? I am attempting to graft a nectarine tree thats in a different property, into the nectarine tree that's in the property I currently live in- both in the Bay area. Its end of March and both trees are awake from dormancy. What's the best method at this time of the year? Thank you so much, I learn a lot from your videos.
Hello AV,
There are grafting techniques that can be used just about any time of year.... however, different techniques work best at specific times of year. The cleft graft (my 2nd favorite grafting method) is best toward the end of winter, a just before the trees break dormancy. Here is a video that demonstrates that technique: ruclips.net/video/ORmiejNDNOw/видео.html If you must start working on your grafting goal sooner than later, and you have the extra time & effort, and since the trees are established in areas where this technique of approach grafting (my #1 favorite grafting method) is not feasible.... You can begin by air-laying the desired nectarine now, and within 6-8 weeks have an air-layered plant that you can then graft along-side the other variety of nectarine (the approach graft) and within 6-10 weeks have accomplished your grafting goals! Here are some other helpful videos on these points: ruclips.net/video/rOjf7LliPmM/видео.html ruclips.net/video/rXZR-IboE_o/видео.html (specifically look at 5:08 in this video to see the fruit tree in a cup used to accomplish the approach graft). Let me know if you have any other questions. Charles :-)
Thank you so much. Appreciate your response. I am all set to go try it out tomorrow. Meanwhile, I also purchased a snow queen nectarine (very low chill hours) to try the approach grafting technique with the nectarine on my other property. I will try the air layering as well to maximize my chances.
A question on air layering : Do I have to get past the cambium layer to prevent the tree from healing? Do I need to get it to the wood to promote rooting, or should I stop at cambium? I guess my question is which layer promotes root growth? Any tips on how I can maximize my success with this approach. Your videos has been very helpful. Thank you.
AV cambium layer has to be removed completely while air layering I have had success on fig n lime on guava the try is on
When you peel the bark on scion do you remove just the bark or bark plus wood?
Mikey A you cut till you hit wood, and remove the bark till you reach the wood, do not remove any wood but cut till you reach the wood leaving a clean layer of undamaged wood. Does that make sense?
Charles, do you leave a leafing branch that will soon be sacrificed in order to keep nutrient flow to the root stock? Thanks for yet another very informative video.
Hello Valhalla Project,
I will have a follow up video to this one released sometime February or March. Thank you for your interest!!! :-)
Charles
very good ....from sami hoyek .lebanon
Hello Sami Hoyek,
Thank you for the compliment & Thank you for subscribing! :-)
Charles
I've seen pictures of grafters putting a green cutting in a water filled bottle, attaching the whole thing to the host plant until the graft takes.
Thanks..first time grafter. ....Need some camera help but you explain the techniques well.
So..the inserted stem is only seperated from the doner plant after the graft heals?
Hello Abigail,
Thank you! :-) And the quality of our videos always get better.... Regarding the graft, yes, only separate the graft after it heals which takes at least 6 weeks and up to 3 months. I have some follow up video that will get release soon, so be sure to subscribe if you have not already. Thank you! Charles :)
Thanks, looking forward to that. I've not seen this technique done anywhere b4...I think using not only a "live" but "living" scion reduces the chances of a failed graft greatly..yes?
Hello Abigail Brewster,
For sure!!! Using a live graft increases your chance of success to something close 99.9%. In fact, you can see the healed wound before you sever the live graft from the container. Looking forward to showing you the signs to look for before severing the the living graft. Wishing you a Happy New Year! :)
Charles
hopefully the graft took! I would love to see an update video
Hello Todd S,
I've been so busy with other tasks... And hope to have updated videos on this and other grafts I did this year within the next 30-60 days.... Thank you for the reminder! :)
Charles
Good morning Todd S,
Here is the update to this approach graft: ruclips.net/video/P-tBBZWbiqw/видео.html
Have a great weekend!
Charles
Dear sir, can you teach us Rose bud grafting in particular and other of its grafting techniques for it's propogation.Thanks.- Rajesh
Moses ( India).
PS: Thanks for this great video.Wish you the best.
Great
Thank you a123! :-)
Charles
I am getting ready to try my first approach graft but I noticed you used a different approach on your 3-in-1 olive graft. How do you decide which one to use and any difference in rate of success.
Good observation Mikey A!
I would go with the approach graft that has both ends growing, preferred over the scion grafted onto the pruned off rootstock. Keep me posted on your success! What tree(s) will you be grafting?
Charles
Mango tree, I think this method might work better because we have similar situation where the rootstock is much larger than the scion.
I will not be able to cut halfway into such a large rootstock so i think I can just take out a piece of bark the same diameter as my scion like above.
Keep me posted on your results Mikey! :-)
Charles
OK! :-)
I tried grafting mango trees 20 times but failed will it fruit without grafting?
What was the outcome of this graft did it survive ?
Hello Mikey A,
Yes. If it was not raining so much here, I would have had a video post showing the after.... I hope to have a post on this tree in the upcoming week! Stay tuned! Charles :-)
Thanks for another awesome video. I tried some approach grafting which I think they have took but after cutting the donor, the graft lose all leaves and then come back later anew. Why it's doing it so? I did have this issue with a passiflora that thought was dead and now again with a white sapote. Could it be that the graft union area isn't large enough because it didn't fully seal and so the plant has trouble getting enough energy?
great
Hello Dev,
Thank you for watching and thank you for the compliment! :-)
Charles
"Take a look at OLIVE these" I doubt that was a pun, but oh my god."
i caught that, too :)
What happened to the follow-up video?
Does the parent plant need to be attached in order for this to work?
Hello SM72086,
Both plants have cambium layers (the green tissues below the bark level) in contact for at least 6-10 weeks; during which time the vascular parts (xylem & phloem) become intertwined. Once the plants systems merge, the potted plant can be severed below the graft line. I will be doing a continuation of this video in the upcoming weeks.... just waiting for more time for the graft to heal. Be sure to subscribe, if you have not already! :)
Charles
Thank you for the response. Enjoying your videos!
You're welcome! Thank you for your support! :-)
Charles
Good morning SM72086,
Here is the update / followup to this video: ruclips.net/video/P-tBBZWbiqw/видео.html
Have a great weekend!
Charles
IV Organic thanks so much for the update. That is amazing. I just checked on my apple tree and the graft didn't work. I tried it with cuttings. This is motivating though and will definitely be trying again. Thank you for such informative content.
Hey Charles what happen to the update, did the graft fail?
Hello Mikey A,
I've got my calendar marked to prepare a video on this on Saturday-- Should be published by Sunday 3.12.2017. Maybe I can have it recorded tomorrow morning... The update on this is WAY overdue... So many other things to do. But you'll see how badly this graft needs my attention... Thank's for keeping me on my toes! :-)
Charles
Good morning Mikey A,
Thank's again for the push on getting this update published! Here it is: ruclips.net/video/P-tBBZWbiqw/видео.html Have a great weekend!
Charles
Thanks for the follow up great job.
Thank you for the compliment Mikey! :-)
Charles
I can make a video of rhe tree if needed
I want to see the results.
Hello Ricardo Torres,
I will post the results within the next week or two. Charles :-)
Good morning Ricardo,
Here is the follow-up to this video that I just published: ruclips.net/video/P-tBBZWbiqw/видео.html
Charles :-)
Tell your camera person to always focus on the subject matter because we can always hear your voice on the background. No need to tell to follow you all the time or zoom the cam, sorry but really annoying. Having said that, i thank you for the knowledge you are imparting.
Too commercial Too intent on selling
Try to get someone who is NOT 4 years old to do the camera work for you in future. A really good presentation ruined by terrible photography.
WITNESS PROTECTION PROGRAM....? whats with the G-Tee? hahah
