Crown grafting is a technique where pieces of the desired plant (scions) are attached to the top part of an older tree (the crown). This process is done when the tree trunk’s thickness is more than the scions. This technique involves gently lifting the bark and placing scions around the edges. The scions then grow within the inner growing layer of the bark. Crown grafting is typically done in early spring or late winter, right before the new growth starts. This practice gives the older trees a new life.
This method is useful for farmers, orchard owners, and home gardeners. With this technique, they don’t need to cut down old trees. They can simply graft new varieties onto them and get the desired results in a year or two. Crown grafting is economical and saves both time and effort.
