I have 3 fuyu persimmon that probably won't bare fruit for at least 5 more seasons. Last year I discovered an American persimmon patch in one of my hunting zones (7 trees). Young trees that all had fruit last season, not much but fruit anyways. I released those trees to sun last winter and they are looking really good. With lots of fruit. Is it possible to graft fuyu onto American persimmon? It will my first attempt at grafting, but I know I can do it. What type of graft? What materials will I need? What time of year? The AP are located on the edge of a small pond, so watering is no problem. One more thing. After opening up the canopy, it really kicked the understory to grow. Should I spray to remove understory?
Thanks for all responses. I am really pumped about this project.
