You will be glad...a buddy lost an entire orchard to voles in tubes.

Looks alba to me

Wow, that was very helpful and a great explanation of difference of cleft and bark graft. I guess I was proposing cleft grafting since my trees are all next to each other and I don't want to mess with storing scions unless I need to. You really shortened my learning curve with that post...thanks!

We have some mature wild pears (I call them sand pears) and some younger store bought pears (mostly Ayers) that need pruning. I'm going to try my hand at grafting some trimmings from the store bought trees onto the wild pears this spring and just started reading tutorials. Is it necessary to...

Another vote for SWO

No offense taken...good common sense response...I saved on the trees so I might as well spend a bit to keep them in good shape. I just wrapped them up and ready for transport. Thanks.
