I worked for a nursery for a while about 25 years ago and I noticed that 
when they grafted ornamental weeping muberries they grafted plants in 
pots in a greenhouse and kept the temperature very hot for some time. 
Could any knowledgeable members advise whether this is required when 
grafting mulberries?
